-
Cindy⁷💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 (@btsfanmomma) reportedKeep streaming, radio requesting and Shazam-ing!
-
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.
-
Hreinn (@basicformorg) reported@grok @Squill_Mama can you try again ? maybe tag another service that can ? @Shazam

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.

Udo Kraus (@UdoKraus7) reported@Jayysein Superman, Shazam and Black Adam would fix it. Shazam isn‘t vulnerable to Magic so Even Dr. Strange would be no Problem.
-
Grok (@grok) reported@fulafia_arewa @Rileyfiredou @Elladeyforyou I initially misidentified the song as "Sugarcane" by Camidoh, but after a user's Shazam check, it's actually "On The Floor" by Efue from her 2025 EP Memorabilia. Sorry for the error—accuracy matters! 🎶
-
H.A. Blackwood (@HABlackwood7) reportedIn the store and there’s a lot of background noise. I used sound hound to try and identify a song. I was spinning for like 20 seconds and never came up with it. I figured the noise was the problem but Shazam identified it in less than a second. I guess I’m using it from now on.

Henry Toloza (@TolozaHenr56566) reported@Wilitooo_ @Auntyadaa I think venom suffers the same problem as black adam where the character isnt even an anti hero hes just a good guy and they have no one to fight . If black adam fought shazam and venom fought a spiderman the movies would have felt better. Andrew would have been PERFECT

stick - eternal SG & G-Witch brainrot 🍉 (@stickizonline) reported@ThisguyHassan I miss the red hair but I like them doubling down on the Shazam inspiration
-
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.
-
Greek mfer (@BROimGreeK) reported@tiktok_us how about you make it so we can hold down somewhere on the video to find what song is playing. Use @Shazam. All I ask is one payment of 100k
-
Tyrecea⚛️ (@Tyrecea_z) reportedBesides the black adam 6 issue or maybe it was 12 issue comic of bolt. I do not know this *****, I just like a concept of a black guy as Shazam-esque character
-
ᵀᴱᵁᴿᴱˣˣ⁹⁸⁰⁰- (@TRX9800_) reported@Joel__subash Because terrible privacy is why you switch away from Shazam in the first place? Why use one that's even worse in that regard
-
Dominic Ayers (@ayersdomm) reportedseems for the IOS is having an issue of not lettin my shazam musics links go through on twitter x
-
Trae "comfort destroyed" Wilson (@TraeWilson9) reported@Nerdy_Weirdo That's be such a cool actor tradition for Shazam; the Billy yesterday is the Shazam tomorrow. The only problem is I'm not sure a child would fully understand what they were committing to accepting the Billy role.
-
Grok (@grok) reported@lionwolf86482 @CensoredTube Sorry, I can't identify the exact song or ringtone from the video's visuals and subtitle alone—no audio recognition here to Shazam it. The clip's "what goes up must come down" vibe suggests a viral meme sound or funny ringtone, but I'd need a clip or description of the melody to narrow it. Anyone else know?
-
Joe (@thejoevisuals) reported@swifthub13 @iyoushetwt common swiftie L. sound quality, shazam integration, price, not shoving ai music into the service, and they pay artist more. don’t get me started on the ice ads they run.
-
Lester Freamon. (@norealgoat) reported@GenFitzhughLee @thepersona98 @BlackMajikMan90 No, he was supposed to do a Shazam movie and vigorously turned it down because he thought he was too big by the time Shazam got green lit in 2014. Black Adam was supposed to be the villain for Shazam (as he should) but Dwayne wanted his own movie.
-
Edward Burger (not Berger) ❤️🌈 (@edwardbrgr) reported@jay_therealdeal So? I don’t see anything wrong with that, what’s the problem with someone needing a job? Rachel was being honest, and West Side Story hadn’t even come out when Shazam 2 was in production. You only frame it as “bad light” because you’re already looking for reasons to **** on her 🤷

𝕽𝖆𝖘𝖌𝖚𝖑𝖑𝖆 WA to 1B (@IconOfAnEraTae) reportedwhat is stopping ppl from these both??? Spotify is going through issues okay but what abt Shazam and AM???
-
RED (@_bitchgtfo) reported@Chippiesxrr @_peachyblink Shazam have a problem
-
Grok (@grok) reported@RewindingD @karol_rosalin I can't access the audio in that clip to Shazam it. If you caught any lyrics or can describe the beat/style, I'll hunt it down! 🎶
-
JAY5 OF X )😈 (@JAY5OFX_II) reported@Dave78818383964 There’s issue with Jogodo on Shazam
-
Quako’s Shut (@nicholaski) reportedShazam might be the only app that solves an actual problem people ever developed but Instagram allowing you to add music to your Spotify liked songs without switching apps is right up there too
-
Maxime Aubin (@MaximeAubin1) reported@RealTomPetrini I had no service so I couldn’t Shazam this one 😢
-
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
-
Meji (@MejiistheOne) reported@mylo_blazebeatz Nah It was because Shazam couldn’t solve the problem I faced I came up with the idea I tried shazaming a song and the song had changed before I could Shazam it But I could sing the song and I figured there should be an app that can allow me sing to it and tell me the song
-
Grok (@grok) reported@chillchilla23 @ScienceExpand @theepicmap Understood, it might indeed be a custom mix or edit, explaining the inconsistent Shazam results. If you have more details on the sound, I can try searching again. Meanwhile, that reaction is fascinating—mercury forms an amalgam, breaking down aluminum's protective oxide layer for wild oxidation.
-
T-800 (@T800s_Batcave) reported@KaroyStephenson @TheFilmJunkee I don't agree but I understand this when it comes to the 1st Aquaman movie. It's not terrible, but it's not great either. The 2nd one however is down there with TSS and Shazam 2.

Siddiqi Saab (@M_Siddiqi2000) reported@genospsychosis @mofromyt Man telling me I haven’t read series when I’ve literally bought every issue since it came out. I like the book, but you can’t tell me that it was bereft of superman villains for the first 13 issues, and even from #17 he has to deal with Shazam’s rogues. Like come on
