Apple iPhone 3G app of the day: Shazam

[toonyloons2006]

iphone = xbox = most apps have to be paid for

android = ps3 = most apps are free

ANDROID WINS ^_^

[damen327]

@toonyloons2006 i agree execpt i have an xbox but we can settle if you like skrillex :)

[LifeSgreeaat]

this app is amazing! I have on every phone I ever owned

[hayman122]

I use it it disentangle work

[ildr2010]

Shazam sux. Total ripoff and it doesnt work half the time.

[TheAntwerpGiants]

shazam = the best

[rice16851]

@TheAntwerpGiants can you do me a favor? type this in "US Marines Fighting Insurgents In Helmand" and tell me what the second is.

[TheSupernaturalFB]

click this if you want to skip the add 0:01

[globethrottle]

Another "new invention" by apple? Sony`s TrackID has been on there mobiles for at least 5 years!

[ledzeplin101]

do u need internet connection?

[vizard202]

lame. i played suicide silence. and the app didnt figure it out x.x

[08posdom]

lols

[nikolazdr]

i have this on my 5800 got it on ovi

[ivansofun]

The uses for this app is pretty limited imo. I'm hoping the developers of Shazam can improve on it so that it can recognize tunes being hummed from the users. I'm sure a lot of people have encountered situations where they just can't remember the name of a song but remember a bit of the lyrics or melody.

[nazarjuna]

@ivansofun if you can't remember a song title or at least a bit of the lyric to the song, don't even bother figuring it out... You're not made to be an audiophile. I hate it when I play a song and someone pretends like they heard this somewhere or it's one of their favourite songs and the only thing they know is to 'hummm' the freaking melody.

[ivansofun]

@nazarjuna Thanks for your "constructive criticism"... Unless you have exceptional memory, it's not a easy task to remember the lyrics/title of a song that you've heard especially as a child. Now tell me, how can one research on a song, when he/she cannot remember the lyrics/title. So going by your logic, only audiophiles should be allowed to research on songs? Hey you know what i hate the most, simpletons like you who berate others with illogical statements. I call those ppl fucken assholes.

[nazarjuna]

@ivansofun I don't understand what ure saying... I don't speak 'redneck'....

[ivansofun]

@nazarjuna It's totally understandable that you're an idiot.

[nazarjuna]

@ivansofun A good piece of music is an art form, don't take it likely and cheapening it with your ridiculous out of tune humming. Appreciate it, do some research, learn the lyrics and meaning...

[Dr4gonEyePL]

Well it isnt totally free... U can use it 5 times a month or pay for it...

[ultamatesonic4]

iphone sucks asss no offence

[TheJerS]

you need to recharge your battery

[The21122]

go suck a dick

[XXxFearlessx]

its still free



[TheMrLoaderz]

Seriously I think that it's useless I mean go to youtube and search the name of the music and I have an iPhone and I really don't care

[Anarkiados]

Wow. We've had a similar thing on most Sony Ericsson phones for years. It worked much better than Shazam too.

[Kharajo]

I thought this was called ZIT?!

[p154831]

@Kharajo from gta4 ?!

[Kharajo]

@p154831

That's the joke!

[TheNaturalPurpose]

omfg it actually WORKS

[DRLOUIES]

can anyone help me plz

i have prob with it ,

i used shazam to tag songs via cellular data network at first

but later after 2 or 3 month i used it on wi fi network and it didnt work (cant connect to the network)

anyone know why ???

[0xqueenx0]

where and how can i download this app???

[fatboytjc]

@0xqueenx0 The app store?? Where else?

[0xqueenx0]

@fatboytjc okey ! i just didn`t know because i didn`t have that phone before so yea.. now i know... but thanks anyway.!

[RodionovBoris]

Прога крутая у самого стоит такая ! Помогает часто ,но этот мужик не смог по человечески снять видео ,потому только 3 звезды

[Dizzy693]

can t find it in appstore. i m searching for 3 months and can t find shit... that s a damn shame

[fatboytjc]

@Dizzy693 Are you sure your typing it in right? Cuz I can find it easily.

[novembrine1]

What if I play the tune myself with a kboard (I case I have the tune in my mind and not handy?)

Shall it work anyway?

[justhc]

i cant find it on APP STORE.. can someone help me??

[Bradsworld1]

if you type in shazam,and it doesnt work, try shazam entertainment. and it shold have a blue S

[justhc]

m8... thx i know u r trying to help..

but if i cant find shazam, how the hell i can find shazam E.. IS THE SAME WORD..

[itsbeiko]

go to the app store on your iphone/itouch, go to search on the bottom bar and type shazam.

[dragos93F]

@justhc you can't find shazam , because you probably don't live in usa or a country wher shazam is avaible. if you change the country you will find this app.

[Tsuzuja]

Is there a way to record a song and use Shazam later, if you're not near a WiFi signal (for iPod Touch)?

[Bradsworld1]

i think so,for ipod touch you need to have a 3rd gen 32GB or up

[Tsuzuja]

Alright, thanks bro, I'm psyched in getting a Touch!

[ThaGlenniator]

@Tsuzuja I thought ipod touches dont have a mic?

[Tsuzuja]

They now have headphones with a built-in mic.

[p154831]

@Bradsworld1 ye but u can just by a mic for $3 on amazon like i did:)

[itsbeiko]

yes

it would record the song and it tells you to click it again when you get wi fi (the song would appear as untagged on the tagged songs list) so it would analyze it for you once you click it and your connected to the internet.

it so cool :)

[lMugenl]

is there an app that allows you to search for music on pc? im condused 2 but it works like this

[XBOX360NR]

this also works with ipod touch ur headphones just need to have a microphone on them

[snjeba]

Hey folks!

You should try the new game Zozo Bugs! It's addictive like heroin!

[jaung1978]

People should check out midomi instead.  It's identifies music a lot faster and even identifies singing!

[CRonaldo7KS]

work this on a sony ericsson c902?? there is that also for c902??

[djkoolnl]

Go download it if you have a Iphone,,,,Or a blackberry lol

[buthead5297]

Shazam is the best app ever

[47om]

how long cn u hv it 4 do u no

[weaponofsex]

does this require 3G network... or does it cost money to find the name of the song?

[Y3y0ish3re]

Wi-Fi; Free

[chaudown5]

He sounds like Jack Sparrow

[me4uk]

@chaudown5 And then they made me their chief

[integgy95]

This is one of the best apps in the whole app store!!! This app alone is enough of a reason to buy an iPhone!!!

[mrmag1cc]

DOES IT NEED INTERNET TO FIND IT?

[VlogJuicee]

Yes

[chilloutcold]

thats why its pretty much only good for the iphone.

[minitinny91]

nice but it works beta with the g1 :) iphone killer :D

[cyberlar]

Midomi Music Identifier is way faster. Costs a little but time is money.

[iluvazngirls]

duz this work with HARDSTYLE

[EK1D]

yes i tryed it played showtek - black and i showed up!

[iluvazngirls]

crazy

[3liteX]

[devilicious97]

[xllama1x]

[devilicious97]

make an itunes account first then go to apps store the app with the blue apple then clikc on it search then it says to put your account in that thingy when it pops up when u want to install an app

[okevino]

shazam is one of my favourite apps.

like all these youtube video. i can just tag and find out the background music.

recommended app.

[deathknighthunter]

hey

i try searching for Shazam in the iTunes Store...but it ain't there!

why??

[itshunter989]

look in the app store and then type in shazam in the search bar...it should say something link shazam entertainment...press the arrow next to the title of artist to make sure its really it...its free now too

[deathknighthunter]

my iTunes store is Saudi Arabia, and Shazam isn't available. The US store has it though, so how do i get the App?

[itshunter989]

i dont kno that much....contact apple and ask is what i would do....or try to switch it to the us store or something? idk im sry

[EazyTurk]

Im gettin a white 15gb iPhone! :D

[deathknighthunter]

16GB you mean?

[EazyTurk]

Yea, that was a typo. My bad.

[MrVanillaCaramel]

[william13pablo]

[MaraisBL]

[supergpenguin]

this app is amazing. works almost every time

[92845756]

it  has work every time for me:)

[theskill1]

must have taken ages for him to find a song that works, hes got no battery lol, when would you need that without someone letting you know what it is first anyway, like on the radio or tv

[fling154]

im getting an iphone for christmas

[threedayswaste]

@fling154 fag

[lovepeacenappiness23]

This app is actually very useful. I can't wait until I get my phone. What an upgrade,lol.

[GamingFever]

i downloaded and it recognizes all my songs i listened, even the not so popular songs! =D

[jooce]

hey is there any other way you can create an itunes account without a credit card??? pay pal perhaps

[TheNamesJER]

trace is the best app.

[alpsalish]

This is the dumbest selling point in the world. Most all cell service companies already had and continue to provide apps that will determine a song for you. One easy example that everyone should know is Verizon. The iphone is ghee! Actually, it's for people who know nothing about tech for the most part and yet need to have the gadgets. Fuck iphone owners. They are typically stupid. Oh and don't vote this down. Try and prove me wrong by REPLYING!

[2left]

that was completely ignorant. hows that for a reply?

[alpsalish]

Ummm, limited at best.

[NocturnalSong142]

I think that was a bit drastic. I have an iPhone, and it was a gift.. I think saying "Fuck iPhone owners" was a bit immature of you. I'm also a comp sci major, so I wouldn't say I know nothing about technology. People have the decision to get whatever they want, who are you to insult them for it? It might be a stupid selling point, but it's no reason to stereotype and basically well.. diss them. I replied, happy?

[alpsalish]

Thanks for replying. I would never say that the last half of my statement was reasoned. That was not the intent. I will still mention this however, the commercial that Apple is using which highlights song recognition software is completely bogus. No one should be bought by that. That software is all over the market on all types of phones. Oh, and yes, Apple knows which one of my buttons to push. Thanks again for the reply.

[minimatsuiX]

Verizons version of this app you have to pay monthly for

[alpsalish]

A link would be nice. My friend (pays his own bill) has it, but doesn't have any extra fees. I am of course talking about the Verizon version. Just looking for info. I am still not impressed by the recent campaign by Apple. It truly does suck.

[mike888890]

why doesnt it work on the itouch?

[xxkixxllxxerxx]

your itouch dosent have a mic. duh XD

[kuushaal]

is this available on itouch?? i have that..if so..how can i get it??

[TomIsInDaHouse101]

no, needs a mic

[HSMfanatic520]

see my "vids" online now before youtube takes them off again h

[wogboy22]

does you bluetooth work to send and recive songs from other bluetooth items

[bf2films]

its free! I love this app! I WANT AN IPHONE!

NOTE: THIS DOES NOT WORK ON IPOD TOUCH.

[Inmate1k]

anyone know if theres a program or preferably a website similar to this one but for a pc? I'd like to tag my music but i dont have an iphone to do it on

[MalteaserMilly]

midomi is better

[cptnsmelly]

Would somebody please make these two apps:

1) GPS with preloaded maps (data is way too expensive!)

2) A WAP browser! It saves a lot of data and i have an unlimited WAP browsing plan and no way to use it on the Iphone...

Please make these somebody!

[ThatBoyRaym]

Hmmm you have an Iphone and yet you dont use the 30 unlimited plan? The plans were made for the Iphone!

[cptnsmelly]

I had an n95 8gb before so that's the plan that I'm on. Also, I like the idea of the 30 dollar plan but it should be cheaper. Rogers is such a bitch just because they have a monopoly on the market.

[lpsaad]

Hey man,

DId you find an app for those two things? I too have an unlimited wap plan but cant browse...gah i think i need a wap browser?

[msu06]

can i get this app with the old iphone?? if i can how do i get it??

[Has564]

ur battery life is dead man go charge it

[sensfan09]

is this a third party app? in other words does your iphone need to be jailbroken ?

[NIckJC712]

no its in app store for free

[freshfromthebest]

i played punjabi music and it couldnt tell

[Has564]

rofl...that seriously cracked me up

[Scoob355]

is this free of charge to use?

[LancerJak]

one of the best app, hasn't been stumped yet

[ekuwa69]

This is one of the best apps on there i love it.

[wetpixels]

Shazam!

[hubbardproductions]

wow how does it do this?

[UncleAndy814]

i bet i could give it a song it doesnt know

[lickingRabbit]

yeah ive found quite a few, i think its just ones ones on the itune store

[imperialfunk]

Fleet Foxes, hell yes!

[dmix09]

holy sht dude!

[pakoroks]

I GOT SHASAM MUSIC ID

[pakoroks]

AND ITS 3.99 PER MONTH IT AINT FREE

[gennarino12]

on the app store it's free, at least in italy! and in england because i suppose he's english or not!?

[Jessetime07]

There is no service fee, its 100% free...

[pakoroks]

idk but i pay 3.99 on my phone but its not an iphone

[kseries]

its just like the other program linda made..

[baseballkid444]

what should i get monkey ball, cro-mag rally, or crash bandicoot?

[boydcape]

monkey ball no doubt. The other two games are much shorter and said to be less fun.

[trooperdz]

cro mag

[deanpinkas]

under wich section is it loctaed in the app store, music?

[irtimed]

your battery is low.

[jersthecool]

All you guys have to do is if you have an old iphone plug it into itunes get the FREE 2.0 software upgrade, yes it will get rid of your apps but you can also jailbreak and have the appstore icon. open the appstore aplication or go on the computer and get the app shazam its free and works on the old iphone with 2.0 software. easy as that :D

[moovuly]

I want this... on Installer!

[izzyknowsyou]

xperia gonna be the iphone killer (: cant wait till it comes out

[tmanpikos]

HELLO! wake up!! sony ericsson? track id? iPhones suck!!

[sigamata07]

[applemicrosoft1]

because its the best phone ever , this isnt just a phone this is a apple phone i-phone !

[eddie2593]

whts the cheapest tariff u can get?

[applemicrosoft1]

£30 in the uk

[eddie2593]

what the hell.........

what a scam

Thanks anyway m8

[applemicrosoft1]

yea and also its so rubbish . rubbish minuits and texts because your in ireland go on the 02 website to look at the tarrifs. but i think the ipod touch is also good because you can get almost all of the apps from the app store all on your ipod . and the ipod has wifi built in. look at it on the apple website.

[eddie2593]

yeah im looking at getting a itouch but i have a feeling apple is gonna release a new ipod gen prop itoush 2nd gen before christmas.so ill wait

[forrest225]
