You can soon lip sync to popular tunes on Facebook

Facebook hopes to lure teens back to its service with one of the new features it’s testing. Called Lip Sync Live, it works within Facebook Live and will let you lip sync along to popular songs from both independent and major labels like Universal, Warner, and Sony. There are already hundreds of songs available including songs like Havana by Camila Cabello, God’s Plan by Drake, and even Welcome To The Jungle by Guns N’ Roses. The song’s title and the artist will be highlighted in the clip but you can also write your own description. Lip Sync Live also works with Facebook’s camera effects so you can add the filters, backgrounds, or masks you want to. This feature is currently being tested in select markets but Facebook is working on releasing this worldwide.

One other new music-related feature Facebook will be introducing is the ability to upload videos with music playing in the background or as background music to a video. The caveat is that these should be music from the labels Facebook has partnered with. Facebook will soon let you add music to Facebook Stories, too.
