Table of Contents

WhatsApp Status is a feature that enhances user experience on the app. Similar to Instagram Stories, WA Status allows users to upload various moments in the form of photos or videos. 

One of the most popular ways to create videos on WhatsApp Status is by adding music to it. Videos with background music have become increasingly attractive to users, especially when using viral or trending music.

There are two ways to create a WhatsApp Status video with background music

Directly on the app or with the help of third-party applications. Let's take a look at each method in detail.

Method 1: Creating a WhatsApp Status video directly

Users can create a WhatsApp Status video with background music directly on the app without using third-party applications. All you need to do is use the audio speaker on WhatsApp and activate the music player app in the background. Here's how to do it:

1. Open the "Settings" menu
2. Click "Apps" > "Manage Apps"
3. Choose your favorite music player app (e.g., Spotify)
4. Activate the "show pop-up window while running in the background" option
5. Play the music you want to use as the background for your WhatsApp Status video
6. Then, open WhatsApp and try to record a video for your Status while the music is still playing
7. The music will automatically be included in the background of your WA Status video

However, it is important to note that the volume of the music played in the background is usually low. If you want to ensure the best quality for your WhatsApp Status video, it is recommended to use a video editing app. This method was performed on a Xiaomi Redmi Note 10s.

Method 2: Creating a WhatsApp Status video with CapCut

If you want to create a higher-quality WhatsApp Status video, use a third-party editing app like CapCut. Here's how:

1. Start by recording a video with your phone
2. Then, download the CapCut app from the Play Store (Android) or App Store (iOS)
3. Log in using your Google, email, or TikTok account
4. On the home screen, click "New Project"
5. Upload the video you recorded earlier
6. Choose the "Audio" feature
7. Click "Mute" to remove the original audio from the video
8. Select "Sound"
9. Then, upload the music you want to use as the background for your WhatsApp Status video
10. Edit the video as desired
11. When finished, click "Export Video" to save it to your gallery. Then, you can upload the video to your WA Status.
