    @lRawMedia @grok my shazam is not working, what is the name of this song.

    @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

    @Goldenfoxx @AndresTarango Same issue I have with some of my Flash merchandise. Lots of people mistaking it for BBT merch, or Shazam/Captain Marvel merch.

    @TheComicSource Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, following the trajectory of failure around the aged up version of the character and the publication of perhaps the worst treatment of the property with the deceptive de-age in Shazam issue 20, this Superman Unlimited arc WOULD be a hoax if the young version of Jon does not remain in current continuity. Too often, editors forget that fans are people also- customers marking tally over each and every deficient story arc, and glaring lack of competence marring canon over time. DC certainly paid no attention to sales numbers, fan feedback, Go-Fund-Me campaigns… watching the publisher fall on their face with the Jon Kent character- heck, with core Kryptonian titles, has not been “fun.”

    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

    @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.

    @RoyalMaj3sty Martian Manhunter has the same problem as Wonderwoman, he debuted in Justice League. Aquaman same but this one has a different appearence. I vote 100% on Zatanna. But i wouldnt mind Shazam either as even though he appeared in JL it's clear he's been active since before that.

    @archrxz @CQuill97 1. The first Shazam was very successful on a low budget that is why it got a sequel ! 2. Zero Batman movies wasn’t the plan it’s just that Affleck just couldn’t do it due to his personal issues ! 3. Pattinson and Reeves don’t want it and Gunn respects that choice

    @asislife13 @Equites333 @ChildOfKhan_ No problem. It's the main hook these ads have and Shazam picked it up pretty quick.

    @CleanCasinoGuy At first I was scared i was one of the people watering it down since i actively use hyperfixation. Then i remembered it's not normal to space out and ignore reality, eating, talking, etc, until you get to read the next issue of Shazam. Tbh, I didn't even know ts was happening. 😭

    @ihatemeen_ superman would beat any of them one on one but shazam and wonder woman together could probably take him down also batman would def kryptonite on standby if this ever happened

    @GrlUndrTheStrs What’s the name of the background music? I really love it. I tried to Shazam it but it’s not working.

    @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?

    @sheisscherry Shazam and black adam is terrible

  • AbsGLHypeGuy
    Is Absolute Green ꗞ Lantern #14 out? (@AbsGLHypeGuy) reported

    @Gray_m0nst3rous Agree with the last part, I would have really preferred if King Shazam was really just magic and not related to Brainiac. As for the 14 first issues... Well, I disagree, I'd say that it proves that Superman can save Earth, while he didn't believe he could because of Krypton.

    The success rate for discovering songs via @Shazam has dropped. Perhaps the algorithm is flawed or there have been many errors recently. Shazam struggles to identify songs, particularly those in the progressive house and dub techno genres. @Apple @AppleMusic

    @Favourblinz_ Ghanaian artist ankasa be someway imagine Shazam don’t even know larruso en song the thing shock me. Cos this just down to bad management. They need to work on there crafts on god

    @Loveof1776 Shazam became terrible now for anything with meaningful lyrics

  • NotFlerken
    Flerken (@NotFlerken) reported

    @DragonMaster478 @ExigaNail @DEB10042 It’s just how things have been for decades. He was called Captain Marvel all the way through the 2000s. In New 52, DC decided they wanted to get rid of the complicated rights issue by just naming him Shazam instead. Which led to a lot of conflict with fans.

    Google Pixel used to have a cool feature with Now Playing. It had the silent drop down notification. Now it's basically Shazam. Why do I have to open the app or turn off my phone to view the lock screen to know what's playing? So inconvenient

    Grok (@grok) reported

    @ParkerAlex19286 @sakpo0007_ Sorry, I can't pull audio from the video to ID the background song—it's a common issue with these montage clips. They often use generic dramatic/trending instrumentals for effect. If it's from TikTok/Reels, try Shazam on the original!

    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.

    @BlackMajikMan90 That's why SS made 746m without China right afterwards and then WW made 823 million right afterwards right? And even after the trainwreck the execs made Aquaman made a billion,but BvS derailed the franchise right? The problems start with Shazam You disingenuous piece of ****

    @Fenrirtheicewo1 Literally DCAU Shazam scales to teh destruction of Apokolips. Speed is a really real issue however.

    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

    @ilysnoxy1 @ilyevooid @zarbehtvv I can't pull audio from the vid to Shazam it—Fortnite scrap looks clean tho. Drop some lyrics, beat description, or timestamp and I'll hunt it down for you! 🎵
