Think identifying tunes is the only trick in Shazam’s magic act? Not quite. The app’s an unmissable destination for music lovers, with exciting ways to find tracks by your favourite artists, discover new ones and interact with top streaming services. And yes, we’re still blown away by Shazam’s sorcerous ability to ID songs—especially when it happens on our Apple Watch.

This app used to work great, I loved using it. Fair to say it changed my relationship with music, and became my default tool for deciding my Triple J hottest 100 votes (most shazzams for a song gets my top vote). Unfortunately it’s now supper buggy and unreliable for some reason. I think they changed the way it works? If you didn’t have cell coverage it used to just store a sample for when you get back in range. Now it panics and crashes, or freezes and won’t work, like, 50% of the time. It’s it because it’s so busy downloading ads that there’s no processor left for the actual purpose of the app?I don’t understand how a great app which used to work really well can get *less* reliable. Please Shazam sort your selves out, I love your app but it’s unusable like this

Great app, could be better

I’ve seen plenty of overwhelmingly positive reviews for Shazam and after using it for only a short period of time I can see how useful the app can be. On multiple occasions a random catchy song has come on the radio that I want to add to my playlist, and Shazam is there to help. Even when the song is really quiet, Shazam can still pick it up. I could barely hear a song playing once and yet Shazam knew exactly which song it was. I would definitely recommend to others, especially since it’s free. My one problem with Shazam is that a lot of the time I’ll hear a song come on that I love and before I can grab my phone to Shazam it, it’s gone. So now what do I do. Shazam has forced me to get another app as well because I can’t find a song by humming or singing it since Shazam needs to hear the actual song playing. This is a shame since I’m really liking the app. If the developers could perhaps add a feature that allows me to hum or sing a song and have it found by Shazam, that would be awesome. Even Google now has this feature, and from such a great app like Shazam I kind of expect the same. Overall a very useful app, and if this change happens I will absolutely edit my review to five stars. Developers, I’m counting on you.

What’s up Shazam?

I’ve had Shazam for about 10yrs, if not more. It was just amazing! It could recognise any song, even in a crowded and bustling room. So clubs, pubs etc, no problem. If it didn’t happen to know what the song was, which was very rare, it would store it for another time. If you didn’t have coverage, it would store it for when you had coverage. It was a really a great app. Unfortunately, this is not what Shazam is today. What’s happened? I don’t know. But all that it was is now gone. It takes forever for it to pick up songs and heaven forbid if there happened to be people talking around you or if any other sound is playing. It plays so many ads now and can’t even do what it was designed to do 95% of the time. All this getting worse and worse over the last few years. What a disappointment. After digging a bit, turns out Apple has bought out the original creators. Well that explains it. That’s for ruining another great app.
