Shazam joins Rdio to listen to the entire recognized song
The app to hunt and recognize songs anywhere keep finding your way among smartphones current. And it is that Shazam is still useful to know what is playing in a place, but it does not stand out as an application for use continuous or habitual That is why it goes one step further in its alliance with Rdio to allow the user to enjoy music without abandoning the application itself, promoting its use and improving its features.All this through a recent update.
Thus, the application Shazam has released a new version for the platform iOS with an important novelty: being able to listen to the recognized song in its entirety Without having to access the music service application Rdio or to other resources such as Spotify or iTunes Something that could give this application a new push to be used as music player in addition to recognizing songs. Of course, half the credit goes to the service Rdio
The new update of Shazam has been designed to continue acting as usual. The difference is that, after recognizing a song caught from the background music of a venue, TV or even YouTube, it is possible to play it cover to cover in Shazam itselfTo do so, it is necessary to have a user account in the Internet music service of Rdio In this way, the option of listening to that song is given through this music service but directly on the recognition screen or the history of Shazam Without , without small fragments of the song or other issues that force the user to switch applications to listen to the entire recognized track.
Until now, Shazam and the Rdio service had with a close collaboration that forced the user to use their respective applications to enjoy the hunted music. Thus, the user could recognize a song and send it directly to a Rdio playlist, being necessary to access this service through its application or website to listen to it in its entirety .Now those ties are stronger and a Rdio play button has been introduced directly into Shazam for user convenience thanks to this version 7.7 for iPhone and iPad
At the moment this is an update only for the platform iOS which is already free in App Store, although those responsible have already confirmed that they are working on bringing this improvement to the mobiles and tablets with operating system Android However, it is something that will still have to wait without a specific date for it. Undoubtedly, it is another step in the history of Shazam in order to maintain itself as an application of continuous use in users' terminals. And it is that the efforts of its team to renew and relaunch a useful service, but of momentary use, are notable.Thus, in addition to its visual changes, in the latest updates it has sought a rapprochement with music services over the Internet and thesocial networks
