On iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch, you can save your Shazams in iCloud so you can access your Shazams on your other Apple devices. On Android, you can create a Shazam account to save your Shazams and access them on your Android devices.
The Apple-owned Shazam music identification app has been refreshed on the App Store with a new iCloud sync feature. Instead of the user name and password, you can now simply enable the option to have your identified songs synchronized via iCloud across your other Apple devices using the same Apple ID. Use Shazam App to Play Songs on Spotify. IOS 14.2 has added a hidden feature that allows you to use Shazam and recognize songs playing even within other apps. This especially comes in handy when you can’t identify that song playing in the background of an Instagram story or a TikTok video. Therefore, I’ve curated this list of best Shazam alternatives for android & iOS, to help you out in these extreme situations. Because without a doubt, Shazam is an amazing music finder since 2006. And still providing high-quality features to its users. Shazam will name your song in seconds. Use your phone's camera to scan and download the free Shazam app. Available on iOS, Android and more devices.
And if you have multiple accounts, you can merge Shazams into a single account.
