Has only correctly identified two songs out of about a dozen over the years I've used this app, which both times were not first try. Who knows, maybe it's that Shazam isn't good with video game music. Is there an app that specializes in finding video game music? That's what I'm looking for (though it seems to still fail to find songs not from video games) Edit, years later: Still struggles with finding songs most of the time, even for non-video game music. Often finds an incorrect song

Since the latest update, Shazam hasn't been able to identify ANY SONGS. Original: I use it while listening to talk shows that play songs into or out of breaks & songs that I hear that I want to remember to download, but the best is on commercials or TV shows! Even a song a character from Euphoria was playing on his guitar was on there! Since Google ended Song Search, glad to have this to use now. Plus having lyrics is the best! Thanks for adding additional listening options beyond Apple Music.

This works very well! Within seconds it will find any song. You can use it any time, even when you are doing something else on your phone. After not being able to recognize a theme that had many talking in it, (which made it harder to identify).. It tried again not many days later, and found it! I was so happy and impressed I felt the need to rate this app!
