    85% of Google Pixel owners use their phone for the same 5 things every Android phone does. Calls. Texts. Camera. Chrome. Gmail. That's a phone with 15+ exclusive features features Samsung doesn't have, features iPhone doesn't have, features no other Android phone on earth can run being used like a $200 budget phone. Your Pixel answers spam calls for you before you pick up. It identifies every song playing around you on your lock screen, without Shazam, without internet. It erases people from photos. It swaps faces in group shots. It holds your place in customer service queues so you don't have to. Google buried these features behind menus, toggles, and settings nobody opens after setup day. A Pixel product reviewer who's tested 30+ smartphones in 2026 told me: "Pixel isn't the fastest phone. It isn't the most powerful. But it has more genuinely useful exclusive software features than any phone I've tested iPhone included. The problem is Google markets the hardware and forgets to tell anyone about the software." Here are 11 Pixel-exclusive features most owners have never turned on 🧵

    I went back & reworked Jaeger Bomb 3 times. First he was a down on his luck Luchador that gets powers to fight Kaiju after he drinks. Then it was a Shazam knock off, then it went back to the first iteration but with some lore changes to give the powers history & more purpose.

    @powcampsurvivor I remember in the movie they specifically mentioned watching Godzilla too. I don't know if that was real or just a fun line cause it was around that time. He DID base a lot of his persona on Shazam though so he'd be down with the cinematic universes too.

    old navy’s indie selection has genuinely been integral to my musical identity for most of my life like there was nothing like trying to write down lyrics in the fitting room so i could search them up later because i didn’t have shazam

    @Niklander3 I'm kind of curious if Safran is more the problem here...the SHAZAM sequel, and the AQUAMAN movies weren't some sort of bastion of quality.

    @garaa_arc The fact he refused to work with Shazam was also a huge problem. His ego got in the way.

    When you look at this DC movies run from Man of Steel to #Supergirl (removing the TV shows here), this is a monumentally terrible run. At some point, it's WB that's the issue here. WW, Shazam (maybe), Joker, The Batman and Superman are the only qualified successes artistically and financially. Aquaman made a billion, but it's a **** of a movie. I love Man of Steel and it turned a tidy profit, but it didn't blow up the box office. Everything else is mostly a crash and burn, a slight disappointment or a moderate success. This is a Jets or Browns team going 4-13 for the NFL season. YIKES!

    @apinionsvary We need to bring back public executions. I'd be glad to pull the lever or the trigger myself. In fact, we could have an auction for the privilege. The state would save ton of money on housing them and make a profit from the auction. One year and one day for appeals and then, Shazam, Game over. I am by no means joking. When you cross the line that far, as in child ****... You no longer human being in my book. We should castrate them with a rusty knife first, and then hang them. If we did it like that, publicly (Maybe private on the castration part) you want to bet that would be a deterrent!? I could do it easily And then sit down to a full meal. I lived on a ranch for a couple of years and I had to butcher some animals. I was more remorseful about that than I would be for these guys here.

    I explain: When I do shazam and clear cache then do shazam it counts like 1 When I do shazam and clear DATA then do Shazam it counts like 2 It is problem because we loose so much Shazams because this misinfo. Also It worked only on Android.

    2002. You're in a cafe and a song you don't know is playing. There's no iPhone. No App Store. Both are 5 years away. So you pull out your Nokia and dial 4 digits: 2580. You hold the phone toward the speaker. 30 seconds later, the call hangs up on its own. Then a text arrives: song title, artist name. That was Shazam's initial product. They picked 2580 because the digits run straight down the middle of the keypad. The wrapper was a phone call and an SMS. The audio fingerprinting behind that text is the same core tech that powers the app today. So when the iPhone arrived in 2007 and the App Store in 2008, Shazam was ready on day 1, with 6 years of data and a proven product. 16 years later, Apple bought them for a reported $400m.

    @larrytooreaal You can just take a screenshot from the edit and send to any ai it’ll give you the answer , if there’s to be something like Shazam for movies it’ll neeed access to your screen , privacy issues would arise

    @ClassicKun93 Please, stop larping as someone with intelligence. MAWS season 3 was terrible- the show should be done. Snyder’s universe wasn’t great nor Shazam nor Black Adam nor, Supergirl- although, it had moments. You may go, ClassicBaka.

    @RoyalMaj3sty I’m a Seven guy, so I’d have to swap Robin and Shazam with Aquaman and Martian Manhunter. I don’t have a problem with Nightwing’s placement. I don’t think you can have Batman over Superman though . . .

    I thought this film was complete garbage but this is a hill I'd gladly die on. Wish she'd gotten her own film and got rid of the terrible goofy Geoff Johns'y comedy of Shazam 2.

    This COSOMA debate made me realize something… A thread 1/ While everyone is arguing about royalty payouts, I’m seeing something different. I’m seeing a system problem. And software problems are meant to be solved. 2/ If artists don’t fully trust how royalties are calculated… If the public doesn’t understand the monitoring system… If people keep asking where the numbers come from… That’s a transparency problem. Transparency is exactly what technology can improve. 3/ Imagine a platform that monitors radio and TV broadcasts in real time. Not guesses. Not spreadsheets passed around. Actual digital monitoring with an auditable trail. 4/ Imagine every song played being automatically detected using audio fingerprinting—similar to how Shazam recognizes music. Every play gets recorded. Every record has a timestamp. Every calculation can be traced. 5/ Now imagine every artist having their own dashboard. “My song played 287 times this month.” “These are the stations.” “These are the broadcasts.” “This is exactly how my royalty was calculated.” No mystery. Just data. 6/ The platform could also allow broadcasters to upload playlists digitally instead of relying only on manual submissions. Everything becomes faster. Everything becomes easier to audit. Everything becomes more transparent. 7/ And why stop there? Churches… Event organizers… Festivals… DJs… Could also submit licensed digital setlists. The more legitimate usage we capture, the fairer the royalty system becomes. 8/ This isn’t just a COSOMA solution. It’s a solution for every collective management organization across Africa that struggles with monitoring, reporting and royalty distribution. That’s a regional software market. 9/ This is the type of software Malawi can build. We don’t always have to import technology. Sometimes we should build the infrastructure ourselves. 10/ That’s why I’m putting this idea out there. I’m looking for partners who believe Malawi can build world-class technology. Investors. Government. COSOMA. Broadcasters. Let’s build it together. 11/ Imagine Malawi becoming the country that develops one of Africa’s most transparent copyright royalty systems. Not because we complained. Because we built the solution. 12/ Sometimes the biggest opportunities don’t come from asking, Why is the system like this? They come from asking, What if I built something better?

    @mjarbo The VFX were another issue. If they would have removed that whole bus outer space segment that could have dropped the budget probably 30 - 50 million. These movies don't have to be effects heavy. Beetle and Shazam 2 were shot for 59 million less

    @bekeestitches I think the problem was never Shazam himself. 😭 The story, writing, and how the character was handled made people overlook how much potential he actually had. ⚡🔥
