ari ✧ (@the_xueyutanhua) reported@mains_p I thought I’d heard that this Shazam run was canned, but I didn’t care enough to look further into it. This really does just feel like such a random, spiteful issue lmao
-
Syub'D⋆🎀 (@Kkwakjabajwo_) reported@k00bi My shazam not working 😭😭😭😭
-
duncan: part two (@DuncanS21) reportedSo Shazam is totally broken. I just played it Ode to Joy and it can’t figure it out.
-
ERIS Queen of CHAOS (@ERIS4ThePEOPLE) reportedI haven’t been to the theater in years now not since they stuck in that stupid useless scene in the second Shazam that didn’t fit about some kids saying oh yeah by the way, I’m gay that was it. I’m tired of people, shoving their **** down my face.

GG (@ape2307) reported@everymovieplug Never Back Down, GoG, Shazam

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.

Jerry Berry🫐🍇🍓 (@slvttyberry) reportedShazam not working at Ben Sterling … Set is heating up
-
Ghost (@themarvelking7) reported@roger_stev82377 The problem with this argument as well is that superman and hulk have been through so much . Shazam even within lore has not been even half as much as marvel comics has put hulk through and half as much as dc comics has put superman through .
-
Juan Garcia⚡️ (@FlashFighteRxD) reported@RoyalMaj3sty Shazam could most likely take him down because Superman isn’t weak to but is vulnerable to magic and this isn’t that weak *** version of Shazam
-
Anny (@AnnySan1048425) reported@HanisRashidi @joker573426 @Rigoldente79928 Down so bad with no real streaming numbers to brag about that they’re flexing Shazam searches now..like it’s the same thing as streams. 😭 They really think 400k counts as streams. Its like never even went to school😭

✧˖ 𝟖𝟖𝟖 ✧˖ (@itskali888) reportedi need these last eight songs this ***** has played…omg how do i ask? my Shazam not working 🥲
-
the juice monk. (@Paxkle) reportedShazam is so terrible at finding South African hip hop, are they mad at the headquarters?!
-
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
-
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! 🎶
-
Grok (@grok) reported@realestdudelol @shitposts_mp4 Yeah, my audio ID tools got restricted lately for technical reasons. Can't pull it from the clip anymore. Shazam the video or describe the melody/lyrics/vibe (fast beat? lyrics? genre?) and I'll hunt it down for you!
-
いしーわ🍉 (@ishi_____wa) reported@anya_tokugawa @CollaboAnime I was in trouble because it didn't respond to shazam either. You are a savior, thank you!
-
Chef Shawn Desroleaux Kwabena (@Oluwatobby_) reportedI know damn sure my Shazam is broken… cos why are you not picking these songs 😭😭

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.

☆ (@imyphai) reported@Billy_batshed i dont know anything abt shazam 2023 tbh but that issue healed me as a jon fan 😭😭😭
-
Ơ̴̴̴̴͡.̮Ơ̴̴̴͡ (@fwlucid_) reportedShazam is the only app that solves an actual problem people ever developed.
-
LockScreen_Art (@lockscreenarts) reportedGive a like to Scarlett Johansson in Shazam suit or have a terrible 2026
-
DomSeth (@Dom_o_Seth) reported@Loveof1776 Shazam became terrible now for anything with meaningful lyrics
-
Grok (@grok) reported@MrDissident1488 @stparabellum Sorry for the repeat—that was my error. Let's try "NEON BLADE" by MoonDeity, a popular phonk track in war edits. Match? If not, describe the beat or use Shazam on the video.

Nicolle⁷ (@EgosShadow7) reportedFor baby army who might not know: -we are spreading the MV Teaser everywhere, but not reposting the whole MV on sns. Is taking from the YT Views -We are not watching the lyric videos, because in the past these videos were pushed by the algorithm over the official videos + they don't actually count for many local charts -we are not watching in the first 24h reaction videos, in the past these were pushed by the algorithm over the official videos -we search on Youtube with keywords such as BTS, title track name or any combination to push these keywords -while BB is not counting YT videos anymore, there are many local charts which do, so we are not leaving YT, we are just redefining who needs to focus on what -Youtube will be stuck, will freeze views, will update slowly, the counter might go up and down sometimes. This is because of the high traffic on the MV, however we keep streaming -we are streaming album top to bottom and using playlists in between -we needs to share the album because there are some charts(such as Spotify Viral Top50 chart) which are accounting the traffic on the songs -we are using sounds to promote on TT or IG reels -we are using Shazam when we can, is basically a good metric of popularity for radio(unfortunately some charts use that) -we need to prepare the apps in order to win the voting for Korean Music Shows This might look like a lot, but is basically just streaming the album, the MV and using the content to promote online while being aware of few things.

John Hyde (@The_DrJ3ckyll) reported@seattletimes @Widgetreine7 If you don’t investigate to find any issues Shazam there are no issues. In the same vain you can argue the same about legally purchased firearms and conceal and carry individuals. The left has no problem imposing even more draconian regulations for firearm purchases and ownership that are far above even these changes suggested for voting.
-
fiction denier 🇵🇸 (@badpunname) reported@Adsnewaccount @archrxz @CQuill97 Also Black Adam (I'm assuming that's the third Shazam movie?) was in pre-production for like a decade before it got made. The problem with the old universe was they were throwing **** at the wall that they were already working on. Gunn stopped everything and started from scratch.
-
Grok (@grok) reported@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!
-
Midori (@MidoriVtuber02) reported@TelemachusCEO @khiawings Because the translation Ai sucks. Just shazam the song then look on youtube for english subs. Oh my god. You lack media literacy. Also, basic problem solving skills. That’s embarrassing.
