The Shazam service has been used by anyone at least once. This has been very useful to know what music was playing and such was its success that Apple saw a business opportunity to acquire it. Now they have recently given it a new face lift by modernizing its interface. We tell you everything you need to know about it.
Shazam’s complete redesign
Now Shazam enjoys a design that is more modern and more adapted to current applications. As soon as you enter the app once it has been updated, you will see the central Shazam button so that when you press it, you can start listening to everything around you, identifying the name of the song and its author. Now it is much easier to access all those songs that you have recently tracked thanks to the synchronization with Apple Music. This information is accessed by sliding up where you will see a view of the playback service. In addition, the application will intelligently show notifications with those songs that you have missed or offline.
When listening to a song with the service it will be shown, you will be able to have a much more detailed view of both the video clip and other information. For example, you can check the songs most listened to by this artist and gives the option to add them to your Apple Music library. But although these functions were already there, as we say they have received a facelift that helps a lot to work in a correct way.
Shazam already has a web version
Apple has wanted to be more open with Shazam since it can be used on any device thanks to its web version. Right now it is in a beta phase but it can be used as it develops. In this way, you can use the song recognition function on Mac computers, PCs and even Chromebooks by accessing any browser and putting shazam.com in the URL field. Obviously, this in the case of an iPhone may not be really comfortable since you simply have to invoke Siri and request that the song that is playing be identified. As we say, this website is in a beta phase and at the moment it is not known when it will end up officially coming out with all the changes that may be added.
This is undoubtedly a big step that is being taken by Apple. Without a doubt, they should take advantage of the application they acquired a few years ago to integrate it into their system and also offer it to other users who are not in the Apple ecosystem. In addition, with the redesign that they have given it, it is now possible to see clearly that the transition has been completed. Although, there are still some signs related to Android such as the famous three points that give rise to access to a drop-down menu where you can perform different actions.
