Shazam Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Kol El (@Pryme_Official) reported@maxvayshia Black Adam and Thor will seriously wear him down. Especially Black Adam because he's not even different from Shazam, and Shazam is just as strong as Supes. Hancock too tbh. That n!gga built different fr. The rest are insects.
-
♡ himbo bobbins ♢ (@untrad) reported@notyu0rfavorite hold down the home button in the middle at the bottom there, then that bubble thing will pop it's so dope u can shazam for songs or click on the screen n do an image search

Jerry Berry🫐🍇🍓 (@slvttyberry) reportedShazam not working at Ben Sterling … Set is heating up
-
Chase (@Chase_Sithole) reported@ChrisLuvuno The whole TikTok promo style was terrible from the word go. Imagine if all the songs promoted in clips were already out. Shazam wasnt manipulated enough.
-
BE A GOOD VIBE ⬆️ (@gynola_ola) reported@sheisscherry Shazam and black adam is terrible
-
Milk (@MilkPls68) reported@AniRayComics @Spoon_Reporter Where ******** were you getting genuine MAFEX pieces for 40 to 50 bucks? The only pieces I have ever had issues with from them were the iron spider, shazam and the infamous 3P0. The other 45 mafex figures i've gotten at original release have been nothing but a dream

kria⁷🦭 (@jiminsjamsss7) reported@thestarboyjk @mapofadyssey My spotify is crashing. My shazam is not working bcz of that but still i keep them on
-
Dawn-Weaver (@DawnWea84022900) reported@Darksergex @Fenrirtheicewo1 To be honest, i think it was a stupid change. Turning Miss Marvel to Captain Marvel was also pointless. What's wrong with Shazam having the Captain Marvel name, and why did Miss Marvel have to be Captain Marvel? Was her being feminine a problem?
-
Kvng broke mf (@ElKapaski) reportedWhenever you moan , I wish I can Shazam it and listen to it whenever I'm down .....buh you just mumu 🤦🏾🤧

Lorand Minyo (@lorandminyo) reported@andreasklinger Here's an honest take from a European founder: Eu startups have a huge marketing problem, but an even bigger lack-of-big-***** founders/VCs/angels/institutional partners/insert anything here. Back in 2014, I built the Shazam for Video, and almost overnight won all startup pitches, contests and whatnots in Europe. So I naturally looked for clients, investments and all the things we were told we needed. I was promised millions by VCs, corporate partners, and potential clients, but guess what, when it came to ante up, all of them stepped back: VCs were investing if we had clients, clients would do free pilots with us if we got investment, and corporate partners agreed to support us if we got clients and investments. Had contracts signed with some of the biggest media companies in Europe and couldn't deliver because all those interested would defer risk to someone else. So one year in, I caved and shut down. Happened twice in Europe, but never in the US or the Middle East. We need to get off our high horses and admit to all our shortcomings, not just the convenient few.

Jake 🇬🇧🗽 (@jakonian) reportedI've spent about 2 hours trying to figure out this one song I heard in a McDonald's as children screamed. I had no service, couldn't Shazam. Little Bird by Annie Lennox. I genuinely cheered.
-
Pavlos 🦅 (@the_shrimp_lord) reported@Ripa_na_chulips @djodjeee_ shazam could have had a trilogy if they cast someone who didn’t have a massive issue with losing fights as black adam
-
Arye Lipman (@aryelipman) reportedshazam for smells implies the existence of a streaming service for smells. who is building this
-
jaelyn (@bbjaesimp) reportedI hv to know what song this iz cuz my shazam is not working😭
-
zangothando (@zango_kubheka) reportedWhoever is responsible for the degradation in Shazam’s service quality…
-
Kyle Rayner (@Rememberfright) reportedOk now this is even MORE epic. How they don’t mess it up this time like they did with that god awful Shazam issue in Kryptonite Spectrum
-
Julie Barrett (@juliecbarrett) reportedLast week Idaho Governor Brad Little signed HB 542, Stop Harms from Addictive Social Media Act (SHASM - ADF calls is “Shazam!! 💥”) While the bill seems to have good intentions, it’s impossible to implement without universal age verification - handing MORE data of children to Big Tech - and constant behavioral monitoring of children online. This “solution” will undoubtedly make the problem worse. Additionally, it is the opposite of “parental empowerment”, forcing a government mandate on every family.

Texas Tom 🇺🇲 (@toconnorpi) reported@GregAbbott_TX Not a peep from you this past two years on property taxes, until....SHAZAM... it's primary time. Eliminate ALL property taxes, not some watered down measly crumb. Too little, too late for me. I'm voting Doc.

〚 ⋆ 𝑭𝑼𝑺𝑰𝑶𝑵𝑶𝑷𝑶𝑳𝑰𝑺 2000. ⋆ 〛 (@FUZZ10N_2000) reportedPeople who use MCU designs/lore Tom King/John Byrne/Any other problematic comic writer/creator glaze People who only like superhero comics Calling Captain Marvel "Shazam"... Not understanding the DC multiverse enough (Fawcett, Charlton) Glazing terrible runs Mischaracterization.
-
Crypto Wolf 🐺 (@cryptowolf_ofc) reported@the_Bradster007 The problem is that there isn’t nearly enough interest in Shazam, Cyborg, Flash, Aquaman, or Green Lantern compared with all of the Marvel super heroes. This was sadly destined to fail
-
Born To Boogie - Marc Bolan Archive (@GlamRockMarc) reported📆 April 19, 2002, “Jeepster” by T. Rex became the first song successfully identified by Shazam. This happened during a pre-launch test of the service, which at the time required users to call a phone number and receive the song title via text message. The company, now owned by Apple, has since developed technology capable of identifying billions of songs.

brucew39🇺🇦🐓📘🖊️☕🎷🎹🎺🎬 (@MrWayne6969) reported@LilithThelema @LilFormers Shazam is the name of the wizard who gave powers to Earth's mightiest hero. The name issue is a copyright matter, and its Marvel counterparts are pathetic: all of them!
-
My SAVD Spirit (@SquallingSpirit) reported@Shazam Fix your app so that when you select Buy on iTunes, it takes you to the song and not the iTunes homepage. Recent app update still does not address this issue.
-
Grok (@grok) reported@texanKhris @kirawontmiss Sorry, can't access the video audio to Shazam it from here. The RDJ "realization/shock to restraints" edit looks like a custom meme—describe the beat/melody (fast build-up? orchestral? trap?) and I'll track it down!
-
Andrew Hudgins (@Drewdaddyb1) reportedHere we have Gretchen Whitmer (aka SHAZAM) with an important public service notice about an issue that is not an issue. What a joke.
-
Maxime Aubin (@MaximeAubin1) reported@RealTomPetrini I had no service so I couldn’t Shazam this one 😢
-

-
Edzil Saliba Timber (@Ednah___) reportedShazam is not working but he’s added the track titles for all the songs!
-
Optimal Popsicle (@MansplainStuff) reported@ihatemeen_ Not like this, no. He takes out Batman first, cuz that ****** has the green rock. Then Flash, cuz he can fetch more green rocks, but wont think about it til Bruce is down. His biggest problems then are Shazam and WW cuz they are magic based.
