Shazam for Android now shows the lyrics of playing songs

Shazam continues its process of change. A remodeling that began last year to become a more than testimonial tool that the user uses very occasionally and that is forgotten in a corner of the terminal. Something that is taking time and that those responsible for it are carrying out in a staggered, being iOS the main platform and Android the second to receive these changes.That is why now comes a new update with some of the news already seen in iPhone but that the community of users ofcan begin to enjoy Android

In this way the green android platform receives a new version of Shazam that reaches the number 2.6 It lists several of the new features already seen and that significantly improve the user experience of this application capable of hunting for songs. However, it also seems to be getting negative reviews from some regular users who see how a simple and fast tool is transforming into a slower application and with functions that, a priori, they do not seem particularly useful. These are their news:

First of all, the first thing that stands out about this update is the visual redesign Accommodating the last big change, there is now a new screen when searching for songs, presenting relevant information in an orderly and clear way, although with a somewhat excessive loading time.A necessary price to include other improvements and features that seek a more complete and useful user experience.

And along with the small visual changes there is now a new way to reproduce the lyrics of the hunted or recognized songs. A feature that changes its old and extravagant characters to have letters that are more easy to read when the terminal is placed in landscape format. All this with the new feature of showing the exact moment in which the song is found and being able to follow it verse after verse, although it is not functional yet for all songs .

In addition to these issues, one of the features promised a few months ago has finally been carried out.And it is that Shazam now also works as an intermediate tool for the music playback service over the Internet from Rdio In this way the user can recognize a song and immediately send it to a playlist of this service if he has an account in it. A comfortable way to fully recognize and listen to a song that the user likes and did not know anything about, providing information and links to services such as YouTube,Spotify or Amazon to purchase or stream in full detail.

In short, an update that will not surprise fans of this application but will please Android with new features that enhance the usefulness of this recognition service. The new version is now available free via Google Play
