Shazam Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Pavlos 🦅 (@the_shrimp_lord) reported@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
-
🎀melie🎀 (@ch13m3l13) reportedInstead of me to ask for playlist I’d rather Shazam one billion songs idk what’s my problem sef😡
-
Marco Almeida (@MarcoAlmeidaPT) reportedCar stereo playing a song on the radio. iPhone connected via CarPlay. Opening Shazam or Apple’s own “recognize music” tool immediately shuts down the radio. I know taking over the car stereo audio when the microphone is activated is the standard behavior, but it’s kind of stupid in this scenario, right?
-
Reef (@Reefmetax) reported@barkmeta If anyone knows what that second to last song was, let me know. I was turning it down before I could hit Shazam
-
Kamen 7 (@ApasserbyFan) reported@Sukiihiro @FitMarshmellow Genuinely Bendis may have set Jon back by a thousand years but Taylor doubled down and set him back even further Throw in Sina Grace too for good measure just for the way he wrote Damian in that Shazam issue
-
SRTKENZO9️⃣ (@K9NX0EVG) reported@BlakkMonkey @Zap_TFS @roger_stev82377 Better to shut it down than go back and forth so yep. AND on top of that, you inserted Hal in a conversation he doesn’t even compete in. Superman is the fastest non speedster character in DC and Shazam is behind him.. so where did you get Hal from? U saying he’s faster than Kent?
-
Har Dey Wale🪖 (@CFC_adewale) reported@Ayeloja0 You people will just sit down and hype rubbish Seyi dey pack quantity over quality, that’s why his songs don’t have replay value why do you think people still dey go back and vibe to all Asake old albums till today? Who still dey remember Shazam or Instagram today lol
-
Flaff (@Flaffenbam) reported@ORTHODOXLAD1 @SynthPotato If you can find a long enough clip of it without too much talking try Shazam, or a service like that.
-
Carl Feher (@CJ_Feher) reported@DeathMetalV Maybe because too many of a certain kind of person were raised on reading science fiction where any inconvenient plot problem can be solved by simply making something up that's never existed before. Shazam! Problem solved!
-
JosMe💯 (@Keepee16) reported@wrld_of_Grace Shazam is not working, I did it 3 times...
-
~X~ (xgrrrl1) (@jnsqxgrrrl1) reported@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
-
. (@walrusagent) reported@AmazingPopPod Unwanted and unnecessary. He should’ve been the villain of Shazam 2. Instead it’s just another guy with similar powers to Superman. How many times did they end up doing that? I mean there’s so many problems with the concept of this movie I really don’t know what else to say.
-
Saint Sam J. of IU Indy (@winatTheJim) reported@Bunny_ngl Order burgers and -Shazam- the amount you tip goes down
-
Give Palestine a nuke (@FarrrlzBarkley) reported@OrevaZSN You could probably do this with existing Shazam by uploading a bunch of tracks of various car sounds to YouTube or something with titles indicating the problem and waiting for Shazam to index them
-
Star cinema (@jjahluv) reported@Emmmavic So Shazam got superpowers, and suddenly even his own parents couldn’t recognize him anymore… yeah, superhero problems really hit different 😭
-
Chris Craddock (@ChrisCraddock5) reportedReed: Yes, I do. He needed somebody to talk to her and find out what would she say if she was asked about Jeffrey Epstein, and you were the perfect choice. And you went down there and suddenly - Shazam, she’s out.”
-
Edzil Saliba Timber (@Ednah___) reportedShazam is not working but he’s added the track titles for all the songs!
-
ThatDeadHead (@SteveGr16838876) reported@OtunbaSebotimo The problem with the movie the kid actor acted nothing like the Shazam version, he was way too serious and didn't have the same charm
-
Thinky Crow (@ThinkyCrow) reported@juicyrosie23 Hulk and Thor have a chance. Thor has canonically beaten Shazam, and Hulk has canonically fought Superman while NOT angry, and Supes admitted it took everything he had to take Hulk down. Stark… a scant possibility if he figures out kryptonite. Cap? Sorry, NO.
-
Mindy #TeamLH@MVF1 (@MindyMVF1) reported@CambsCops Why hasn't Shazam Choudhary been arrested for this Anti-Semitic advert? Why aren't the Police nationwide investigating @TheGreenParty for Anti-Semitism? It's time this party was SHUT DOWN!😡
-
Luna⁷𓍼(IA) (@2bts4kool) reportedI just saw someone Shazam they don’t know bout us at ARIRANG tour I legit had to put my phone down and sigh
-
Greentendo (@Nictendo2) reported@Gazungamer Honestly the biggest problem with the later output of the dceu. Stuff like Shazam and TSS would’ve done wonders 5 years earlier
-
One_Lone_Pixel (@One_Lone_Pixel) reported@Mandevil23 He was terrible as Shazam. This didn’t matter in the slightest.
-
Paul Rodriguez (@PGRodriguez80) reported@KS052020 @jkbaker1117 @ParamountPics You would keep failing then. The GA do not want cbm. Unless you are OK with sub 500m box offices. That is fine if the movie has Joker or Shazam budgets. The problem with dc and now the mcu is that the fans want something the ga does not care for.

Joseph Mora (@PapiNCali) reported@TaroPh59854 @MadonnaUltimate That sounds dramatic, but it does not really hold up from a music industry standpoint. Nobody needs an organized scheme to make a record underperform. The market does that all by itself. Streaming, radio callout, playlist retention, repeat listening, TikTok traction, Shazam activity, sales stability, and week-two drops tell the story. If a song connects, it holds. If it does not, no amount of “they are trying to erase her legacy” explains the public not coming back to the track. Madonna’s legacy is not being erased. Her legacy is already written. The issue is that some fans confuse legacy with current demand. She can be the Queen of Pop historically and still have a single that does not perform like a major hit in 2026. Those two things can exist at the same time. And honestly, blaming invisible “people hungry for the Queen title” feels like a distraction from the actual rollout. If the song had smashed, nobody would be talking about conspiracies. They would be posting chart receipts. But when you have label investment, Sabrina Carpenter attached, Coachella-adjacent hype, The Abbey, Grindr promo, listening parties, and still the numbers do not match the noise, that is not a takedown campaign. That is a rollout failing to convert attention into consumption. The music business is not sentimental. It does not care how iconic you are. It cares whether people stream the song again tomorrow. Madonna is not being erased. She is being measured. And that is what some fans cannot handle.

Ken Hommel (@TooCloseToTheTV) reported@BackintheBronze Sent cash in for Shazam! then it was cancelled. For the two remaining issues, they sent a Super Friends and a Superman. I also got one of the many subs won in the Superman Trivia Contest. I chose Action so I would get the giant sized #500.
-
bori | IT'S PRIME TIME!!! (@bori___cha) reported@MILFMlLK source wall yes. I forgor abt that ngl (it happens after the green cube) but the monsterlands... uncertain. death metal almost entirely decanonizes his shazam issues bc it acts as if he just got out of the source wall but honestly who freakin knows
-
:) (@marcopoloed) reportedPlayed a song and asked my roommate to guess who the artist is. Guy cheekily pulls his phone out to make it seem like he’s texting someone and i saw his hand move from the top of the screen to shazam it. Puts down his phone a few secs later of fake brainstorming he gets it right
-
The8lkNurembergfacts (@The8lkNuremberg) reported@h0uselife Shut your dumb *** up Shazam one was better than Shazam two and he’s a ****** actor for doing what he did why he is going down the path that he’s going down with his career had his stupid *** put his ego & pride to the side something great could have come out of that.

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.
