It has been many times that we have spoken to you about Shazam, an app to identify music that was born practically from the hand of the first iPhone. And, what better way than to use our device to know what song is playing around us. Yes, even Siri dared to integrate this Shazam technology ...
But not only do music addicts live on Shazam, there are others, and probably the strongest competitor is SoundHound. An app that has been in the App Store for a long time but with less popularity. Now is updated to integrate its own virtual assistant, OK Hound, and Apple Music and Spotify services ...
As you have seen in the previous video, the highlight of this new version is the SoundHound "virtual assistant", OK Hound. With this new assistant you will only have to open the app, say the magic words and he will only identify the song that is sounding in your environment. It will also create a playlist on your streaming music service with these identified songs. Also, as we say, comes the integration with Apple Music and Spotify, so just by identifying a song you will go directly to any of the streaming music services you use.
This is what they tell us in the update log of the new SoundHound update for iOS, the new version 7.1.1:
- We have redesigned history page so it's easier to access the music you've found with SoundHound.
- We have a new icon of application! Look for the distinctive orange SoundHound button.
If you enjoy our service, don't hesitate to spread the word and rate the app.
You know, if you want an alternative to Shazam, try Shounhound an app less used but just as powerful so that you can identify any song that is playing in your environment, it is an app free and universal, so you can use it in any of your iDevices, Apple Watch included.
