Popular music recognition service Shazam, which became an entity under Apple back in 2018 has now released a new update for its iPhone and iPad application today, with a feature to find more songs by playing audio for a longer period prior to offering a result.
Users of Shazam can enjoy this improved functionality by updating their app to version 15.0 which is now going to be available on the App Store.
What Does the New Update to Shazam Bring to the Table?
Furthermore, Shazam is also integrating the Control Center and Siri on devices that are running iPadOS 14.2 and iOS 14.2 or late, but it is not known if the new pros are now available.
For those unaware, the App debuted back in 2008, with the app allowing users to identify songs that they might not know the name of. The release notes of the app fail to mention any further new features for the latest version of Shazam, which for those unaware is free to use.
In other news, e-commerce giant Amazon is now selling Cupertino giant Apple’s AirPods Pro with support for MagSafe for just $159.00, down from the $249 launch price, matching the offering price of Walmart.
Gizchina News of the week
These earbuds, as of the time of writing this article are in stock and will be shipped and sold directly via Amazon. Do note however that this deal will be applicable until stocks last.
That being said, this is one of the best offers on Apple products happening this week, since this drops the AirPods Pros retail price to less than the AirPods 3 earbuds, which Apple announced recently.
What Else is Apple Working on?
For those curious, the AirPods 3rd generation receives multiple improvements, from design to chipset to battery life, all of which are key to the listening and ease of use when it comes to earbuds and headphones. You can also use Shazam with your AirPods.
When it comes to pricing, the AirPods 3 retail for $179, with the earbuds retailing for Rs 18,500 in India. Starting with the design, the AirPods third-generation feature a design similar to the Apple AirPods Pro, but the smartphone giant seems to think that this is a new design, we will let them have this one, so yes, the AirPods 3rd generation feature a “new design”.
The major difference to the AirPods Pro is the ear tip since the AirPods 3rd gen misses out on the ear tips that ship with the Pro version of the AirPods.
