Shazam

A web version of the Shazam app has finally been released.

Apple, which bought the music recognition software in 2018, now offers to identify songs from a web browser.

Until then, the software was only available on a computer from an application, reports Presse-Citron.

Bad news, however, for Windows users: the world's most popular operating system does not currently allow access to this feature.

Shazam Web only works on MacOs and Chrome Os.

Go to Shazam.com

In addition, only Safari, Chrome and Firefox browsers are compatible with this service, which is still in beta.

The shazam.com site is therefore only available to Internet users who meet all of these conditions.

The computer's microphone must be on for the program to work.

Numerous improvements have been made to the software created in 2014 in recent weeks.

The recent update of iOS 14 offers a new design to the mobile application and allows to recognize music offline.

Shazam is full of novelties

Above all, the very practical "Music Recognition" now makes it possible to identify a title even inside an application open on an iPhone or iPad, without going through listening on speakers.

This new functionality is activated directly from the control center.

Finally, the history of “shazam” songs is now visible from the main screen, by sliding the screen upwards.

The recognized songs can also be synchronized with Apple Music.
