A Step-by-Step Tutorial for the Viral Reverse Audio Trend
How to Play?
Player 1 records a voice clip (e.g., a song lyric or phrase) without letting Player 2 hear it.
Play the reversed audio from Player 1. Player 2 imitates the reversed sound and records their version.
Reverse Player 2's recording again. Now Player 2 listens to the restored audio and tries to guess what Player 1 originally said.
What Is the Reverse Singing Challenge?
The Reverse Singing Challenge is a viral trend on TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts. Participants imitate reversed audio and try to "sing backwards." When the recording is reversed again, the final result often becomes funny, surprising, and extremely shareable — which is why this trend keeps going viral.
What Tools Do You Need?
You need a reverse audio tool such as ReversePlay.org, which allows you to:
Record audio directly
Upload existing audio
Play audio forward and backward
Save and share reversed audio
You can also use a mobile app with similar features (e.g., Reverse Audio). This makes it easy to record your challenge videos anytime.

Step 1: Choose a popular song lyric — the simpler, the better. Step 2: Visit ReversePlay.org and create your reversed audio with our online tool. Step 3: Use another phone to film your reaction and your reverse-singing performance. Step 4: Edit the clip using any video editor: trim, add subtitles, add effects. Step 5: Post on TikTok or Instagram using hashtags like #ReverseSingingChallenge #ReverseAudioChallenge.
