    @RaminNasibov @TheBookofG1nk0 I downloaded Merlin but it will absolutely not work unless you give location permissions which is not cool. I mean it listens through mic AND tracks location. Privacy issue. Someone needs to invent a competitor that makes it optional! Bird Shazam on demand w/ manual loc data

    @Updates4DC He turned down playing Superman in shazam and didn't want to appear in any studio projects until they basically guaranteed him a superman movie which he never got. Zack Synder left WB Henry Cavil rejected the offer to play superman. Jason Mamoa said he rather be Lobo.

    @turntineforwhat for me i just turn on my phone, tap the shazam widget, use face ID, and then it’s immediately open on the app. that’s so weird it’s not working for you :(

    @OrevaZSN A good parent doesn't stop their kid from drinking half a liter of disinfectant. They put something that tastes terrible (but won't kill the kid) into the "disinfectant bottle" and leave it where the kid will find and try it. Shazam! The kid no longer wants to drink that stuff.

    @anya_tokugawa @CollaboAnime I was in trouble because it didn't respond to shazam either. You are a savior, thank you!

    @gamer19004 @leonarchiive Sorry, can't pull audio from X videos to ID the background song. If you describe any lyrics, melody, or vibe (sad piano? rap? rock?), I can try to narrow it down. Or Shazam the clip directly!

    @UncannySp1der It’s actually more like if the Absolute universe started with Shazam mounted over Darkseid’s fire place. And yeah i don’t really think that would be a big issue either

    @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.

    @Abimbola_Fenwa Let Down is very sad, lol. I like Creep, No Surprises and Plastic trees and maybe Karma police. You dig Foxy Shazam too?

    @uniquemoviemom This is more female supremacy nonsense. Shazam is also magic. He should have been able to resist. Also, the lightning should have taken her out or he could have called down the lighting again to turn back as she was thrown away by the impact.

    @midnightcomicss It's Jay who would be a p3dophile. Jon was still 11 when Jay was already in college, with was only a few weeks before Jon went to space with his known mad grandfather. Also Jay was fine being in a relationship w/Jon while deaged in Shazam issue

    Look I don't know who this fellow is (I assume he's some sort of a bigwig in the beverage industry) but that's a terrible name for this app. If we're gonna rename it let's go with "Shazam!" or "Ka-chow!" ya know, something catchy and fun.

    @The4thTurtleNyC Aquaman was an aberration despite what Snyder did to the DCEU. It excelled and became a blockbuster. Then the Snyder influence reared its ugly head and took down Shazam. A movie with Wonder Woman like critical and audience reviews and grossed less than a 1/3 of what Aquaman did.

  • GlamRockMarc
    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.

    @AxelTalksFilm With how he made it seem like he was such a ********* Adam fan it’s sad how it turned out. He shoulda had the accent down with the hair and ears, that woulda been an acting job he would get praise for bc the dialect. Also not wanting to be against Shazam too…

    nikko 🔜 chicago critics film festival (@NikkoCaruso) reported

    @The_Boricua_AMC I don’t think i can fully attribute this as the reason. The GA wasn’t as wired into that as you think. Plus, 3 of those films were sequels to films that were liked* before. 3 of those got bad reviews (Shazam, Aquaman, Joker 1 was mixed, and had controversy (Flash) 1 was reviewed well but made no money (Blue Beetle) So 4 of those projects weren’t even considered good. The public still pays attention to reviews. They added to the “mediocre film issue”

    @hawolt I mean I understand the frustration, but as a fan and coder myself: I was more impressed by the custom shazam while at the same time thinking "yeah but im never gonna need this" I watch twitch a lot so the adblock did directly solve a problem i had

    @roger_stev82377 People seem to forget that Shazam is powered by six gods and imagine the six of them against Thor and hulk bro it's gonna be a massive beat down 💯💯💯

    what happened to @Shazam ? There was a time when you could hum a song for 5sec and it would find it. Now you can play 10sec of the actual song and it doesn’t find anything?! What a degradation of service

    It's on you if you can't see it, the song is literally #2 on Shazam Global, radios keeps refusing to play it, the streams are going down instead of up, the views on YT are also going down. Anyway those are just soundtrack songs so idc that much overall if they don't do it

    @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

    @R0ssb1e @Bad_____bunny99 There's nothing close about the fight. Thragg aren't even as strong or as fast as Shazam, Thragg aren't seen anything or face anything like Shazam before but Shazam has taken down people far powerful than Thragg like I said earlier they're not on the same level.
