How to share a Spotify song on TikTok

Spotify doesn’t offer direct sharing to TikTok, but you can still add your favorite tracks to videos with these methods:

1. Find the song on Spotify

  • Open Spotify on your mobile device or desktop.
  • Search for the song you want to share.
  • Tap the three dots next to the song title.
  • Select Share > Copy Link to get the track’s URL.

2. Import the song into TikTok (alternative methods)

Since TikTok does not allow direct integration with Spotify, you have a few options:

A. Use TikTok’s Music Library

  • Search for the track in TikTok’s Sounds library.
  • If available, select it and start creating your video.

B. Upload the Song Manually

  • Download the track (if you own the rights or have permission).
  • Use a video editing app like CapCut, InShot, or Adobe Premiere Rush to add the song to your clip.
  • Import the edited video into TikTok and upload it.

Tips to make your TikTok music post go viral

  • Use Trending Hashtags: Include #Spotify, #TikTokMusic, and genre-specific hashtags.
