How to add audio to video

Drag and drop your video file from your media or from our stock library and place it on your timeline. File size may be limited by the storage availability of your plan.

Adding background music is easy. Click the music icon and select the audio you want to use. Auto-loop your audio by selecting “Loop audio track” if it’s shorter than your video.

After adding music, throw in some effects, make some edits and click Finish. Choose where you want to export and you’re done!
