Shazam is a necessity for some app-toting music fans, though even the savviest users can miss a tune. The reason is simple: songs are typically a few minutes long, and that means they often end before a recognition can me made.
The solution? Shazam's latest batch of iPhone and iPod touch updates actually enable tagging on startup, thereby increasing the chances of a quick match. That is just one of several iOS4-related improvements, a batch that includes support for multi-tasking, brighter 'retina' displays, integrated 'Shazam Tag Charts,' in-app upgrades, 30-second previews of tagged songs, and improved metadata across biographies, discographies, and associated lyrics.
It's a big list, but also a big audience. According to Shazam CEO Andrew Fisher, the iPhone and iPod touch user base currently surpasses 20 million. The changes span the entire collection of app variants.
