Adding Audio to a Repost

When reposting content, you can add audio by pasting a Spotify URL in your repost commentary. You can also upload an audio file or record a voice memo when creating your repost commentary.

Audio Best Practices

  • Use Spotify Embeds When Possible: Embedding from Spotify is fast and doesn't require upload time
  • Optimize Your Audio Files: For best results, use MP3 format at a reasonable bitrate (128-192 kbps)
  • Consider File Size: Larger audio files take longer to upload
  • Add Context: Include text or captions with your audio to provide context for your audience
  • Respect Copyright: Make sure you have the rights to share any audio content you upload
  • Test Your Recording: For voice memos, listen to your recording before posting to make sure it sounds good

Troubleshooting

My Spotify music isn't embedding

  • Make sure you're using a Spotify URL (open.spotify.com)
  • Check that the URL is complete and correct
  • Try copying the URL directly from Spotify's share menu
  • Some private or restricted content may not embed - make sure the content is publicly viewable

My audio upload failed

  • Check that your audio file is in a supported format (MP3, WebM, M4A, or WAV)
  • Make sure your audio file is under 50 MB
  • Check your internet connection - large files require a stable connection
  • Try refreshing the page and uploading again
  • If the problem persists, try compressing your audio file or converting it to MP3 format

I can't record a voice memo

  • Make sure your browser has permission to access your microphone
  • Check your browser settings - some browsers require explicit microphone permissions
  • Try using a different browser if the issue persists
  • Make sure you're using a modern browser that supports audio recording (Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari)
  • Check that no other application is using your microphone

My audio isn't playing

  • Check that the audio file uploaded successfully
  • Try refreshing the page
  • Check your internet connection
  • For Spotify embeds, make sure the content is still available on Spotify
  • Try playing the audio in a different browser or device

Tip: Audio is a great way to share music, podcasts, voice notes, or any audio content. Whether you're embedding from Spotify, uploading your own files, or recording voice memos, audio adds a personal and engaging element to your posts!
