Apple Adds Support for Live Activities to ShazamApple today added support for Live Activities in Shazam, its free music discovery and identification app.
Shazam's Live Activities keep the user updated when searching for music in the background, which is particularly useful when multitasking or
identifying songs in other apps. The last
significant update to Shazam arrived in January, allowing users to identify songs from other apps while listening with headphones.
Apple
acquired Shazam in 2018, and has been gradually bringing the app into closer alignment with
Apple Music ever since, offering trials to the streaming service through the app and the ability to sync Shazams directly to ‌Apple Music‌.
Shazam can be downloaded from the
App Store for free. It can be accessed through the Control Center on
iPhone and
iPad, through
Siri commands, or on the Mac, as well as via widgets. Version 17.11 of Shazam is now available.
Apple opened up its Live Activities API to third-party ‌iPhone‌ apps with the release of iOS 16.1 in 2022, and many developers have
since made good use of the feature. <div class="linkback">Tag:
