Shazam Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
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?

JOHN 🍿 🇺🇸 (@Tmbenedict) reported@bekeestitches The problem wasn’t Shazam… it was forcing a pure joy character into a universe that only wanted grimdark and corporate synergy.
-
JFresh (@JFreshHockey) reportedAnti-Flag - “Broken Bones” it's whatever Arkells - “Whistleblower” don't like this band at all but this has some energy to it it's decent Band of Skulls - “The Devil Takes Care of His Own” i blame the black keys for all the mid blues rock they kept putting in these games Bassnectar - “Pennywise Tribute” 7/10 i don't even know much you could even call this a remix but the original is cool Battleme - “Shoot the Noise, Man” even the electric stuff has to be bluesy apparently Classified - “Run with Me” this is so so bad i can't even pretend to like it for halifax reasons Foxy Shazam - “I Like It” the uncensored chorus is insane. song's so ******* annoying Gaslight Anthem - “45” good song on imo a great album The Heavy - “What Makes a Good Man” pretty cool stuff The Hives - “I Want More” good band but really annoying Monster Truck - “Seven Seas Blues” it's fine but enough of the big burly beard blues rock My Darkest Days - “Save Yourself” at least it's catchy but i hate the hot topic pop metal The Offspring - “Days Go By” maybe the most shameless rip off song i've ever heard, just cover foo fighters instead Shinedown - “Bully” garbage Thousand Foot Krutch - “Light Up the Sky” no
-
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
-
Remy Etienne Lebeau (@UnderwaterSquad) reported@thorkahh @iREUS_SA I kinda wonder where the spikes come from. I’m not all the way caught up. I just finished issue Abs Superman #20. I wasn’t sure if that was John Henry Irons or if it was Superman himself in that upgraded armor he wore when he pushed King Shazam to another planet in space
-
jose vega (@residentpimp) reported@mjarbo The VFX were another issue. If they would have removed that whole bus outer space segment that could have dropped the budget probably 30 - 50 million. These movies don't have to be effects heavy. Beetle and Shazam 2 were shot for 59 million less
-
King Emmanuel (@Obanuell) reported@bekeestitches Shazam was never the problem. The real issue was everyone underestimating what he could become and how much power he actually carried. They judged the kid instead of understanding the hero.
-
Oliver Fit (@aipusher) reported@tomaldertweets Everyone talks about being early on a platform. Shazam was early on the problem.
-
I.J KLMNOP (@MoPride_) reportedSometimes, I wonder if Shazam has ear problems.
-
Blackboy (@blackboyrizzy) reported@bekeestitches Shazam catching strays when he wasn’t even the problem 😭 Somebody owes bro an apology.
-
Robert P. Glover (@RPGlover) reported@ClassicKun93 Please, stop larping as someone with intelligence. MAWS season 3 was terrible- the show should be done. Snyder’s universe wasn’t great nor Shazam nor Black Adam nor, Supergirl- although, it had moments. You may go, ClassicBaka.
-
anne (@softlybuttered) reported@dlfreeak @bbricktalk why should I have to Shazam when they could name her and let people easily find out who she is? i dont got time for that and if theyre a real fan they'd have no problem telling ppl who she is, which would get more ppl to listen to her
-
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
-
Ola🧘 (@Olaszn_) reported@Dimson001789 If Superman ever snapped and went full villain mode, there’s barely anyone who could actually take him down. Darkseid, Doctor Fate, maybe Shazam if he’s at his absolute peak.
-
Mush - Super Sonic Summer of Scares (@MushHog) reported@parkerslawyer I won’t deny Diana is in need of content, but this is a terrible argument to make when Booster Gold has nothing to his name compared to Diana carrying a previous universe with Aquaman and Shazam, pretending Superman doesn’t exist outside of false promises with cameos.
-
Boluwatife (@abubakirhammedb) reported@bekeestitches Everyone kept treating Shazam like the threat, when the real problem was the people manipulating the situation behind the scenes. 😭 The guy was fighting the wrong battle from the start. 💀
-
Mason mount (@mount4life) reported@Exchronos @Steveroger3277 Shazam 2 had a weak plot and terrible acting
-
Red Sparrow || Voiceover Artist (@Ibkofficial1) reportedBefore Spotify and Shazam became a thing, I used to watch the credits of movies all the way down till the last minute just so I could see the title of songs they used. Good times. 😌
-
Quadpen (@Quadpen) reported@rdhoodsgf as a homeless ten year old billy batson was deemed worthy by the wizard shazam to wield his power (wisdom of solomon, strength of hercules, stamina of atlas, power of zeus, courage of achilles, speed of mercury) by saying the wizards name he would call down a bolt of lightning-
-
DD (@DComicTalks) reported@LifeMi1987 @Arthur65381575 We also already had the Batman that character had already been rebooted the issue was recasting Wonder Woman while she still had a big role in Shazam 2 and a role in flash
-
self (@chuunibin) reported@Pureshot449 true.... i actually dont think i have read that shazam issue fully.... might have to when im done w this arc...........
-
Justin Fencsak (@kascnef82) reported@Rtfreese @BeatShazamFOX @Shazam Dumbing down
-
Ads (@Adsnewaccount) reported@B3nd3rISGr3at34 @AxelTalksFilm People were willing to give a chance to these characters back then !Shazam is not a bigger character than Supergirl but still had decent numbers !The problem is now people just won’t turn up if it’s not the big 3 or nostalgia stuff like Avengers
-
Sully (@ICSully) reported@YagoRochaAlvz "He took down the Snyderverse" Outperformed both Shazam movies, Flash and Wonder Woman 2 and was the better movie.

Recovery Simp (@recovery_simp) reportedThis COSOMA debate made me realize something… A thread 1/ While everyone is arguing about royalty payouts, I’m seeing something different. I’m seeing a system problem. And software problems are meant to be solved. 2/ If artists don’t fully trust how royalties are calculated… If the public doesn’t understand the monitoring system… If people keep asking where the numbers come from… That’s a transparency problem. Transparency is exactly what technology can improve. 3/ Imagine a platform that monitors radio and TV broadcasts in real time. Not guesses. Not spreadsheets passed around. Actual digital monitoring with an auditable trail. 4/ Imagine every song played being automatically detected using audio fingerprinting—similar to how Shazam recognizes music. Every play gets recorded. Every record has a timestamp. Every calculation can be traced. 5/ Now imagine every artist having their own dashboard. “My song played 287 times this month.” “These are the stations.” “These are the broadcasts.” “This is exactly how my royalty was calculated.” No mystery. Just data. 6/ The platform could also allow broadcasters to upload playlists digitally instead of relying only on manual submissions. Everything becomes faster. Everything becomes easier to audit. Everything becomes more transparent. 7/ And why stop there? Churches… Event organizers… Festivals… DJs… Could also submit licensed digital setlists. The more legitimate usage we capture, the fairer the royalty system becomes. 8/ This isn’t just a COSOMA solution. It’s a solution for every collective management organization across Africa that struggles with monitoring, reporting and royalty distribution. That’s a regional software market. 9/ This is the type of software Malawi can build. We don’t always have to import technology. Sometimes we should build the infrastructure ourselves. 10/ That’s why I’m putting this idea out there. I’m looking for partners who believe Malawi can build world-class technology. Investors. Government. COSOMA. Broadcasters. Let’s build it together. 11/ Imagine Malawi becoming the country that develops one of Africa’s most transparent copyright royalty systems. Not because we complained. Because we built the solution. 12/ Sometimes the biggest opportunities don’t come from asking, Why is the system like this? They come from asking, What if I built something better?

Qootooloo (@qootooloo) reported@Camsiyonna1 Shazam? Fkr real? Terrible, actor Terrible, te-ri-ble

Neo (@Neo_tech_AI) reported4. Visual Intelligence point at anything, know everything. Press and hold the Camera Control button. Point your camera at anything. A plant: species identification and care instructions. A restaurant: reviews, hours, and menu. A sign in another language: instant translation. A product: price comparison and purchase links. A dog: breed identification. A building: historical information and architecture details. A math equation: solved. A business card: contact saved automatically. A food dish: calorie and nutrition estimate. This is Google Lens + ChatGPT + Shazam in one gesture. Built into the camera. No app needed. No typing. It also works on photos already in your Camera Roll. Open a screenshot. Activate Visual Intelligence. It reads and responds to whatever's in the image. Most owners have never held the Camera Control button for 2 seconds. The entire AI visual engine sits behind a long press nobody tries.

db00_0 (@BobDole01118706) reported@garaa_arc The fact he refused to work with Shazam was also a huge problem. His ego got in the way.

GMVC🏴 (@_GMVC) reported@jaycubedd Wonder Woman, Aquaman and Shazam all were good imo, the rest was terrible man
-
Javier (@Javier_1814) reportedPopularity wise seems about right. There's some like Batgirl and Supergirl that could go up a step but at the same time I understand why they're on that spot. Same with Shazam I'm 50/50 if he should be there or one step down.
