Shazam, the popular music tagging application creator which has enjoyed more than 165 million users since its launch back in 2008, has this week launched a new iOS application called Shazam Player. This innovative app has been created to replace the existing Apple music player on iPhones and iPod Touch devices, offering a more integrated and feature-rich experience for music lovers.
The new Shazam Media Player will feature social sharing on Twitter and Facebook, allowing users to easily share their favorite tracks and playlists with friends and followers. Additionally, the app provides quick access links to YouTube, ticket information, and lyrics, making it a comprehensive tool for music discovery and enjoyment.

Enhanced Features and User Experience
David L. Jones, Shazam’s EVP of marketing, explains:
“This is a replacement for the music player on iOS devices. We have great technology and features we can wrap around any track, but it’s been so far limited to music you can discover out and about. We thought we’d bring the feature set and technology to music you have on the device already,”
The Shazam Player is designed to enhance the user experience by integrating Shazam’s powerful music recognition technology directly into the music player. This means that users can now identify songs playing around them and seamlessly add them to their playlists without switching between apps. The app also includes a sleek and intuitive interface that makes navigating through your music library a breeze.
Social Integration and Additional Features
One of the standout features of the Shazam Player is its social integration. Users can share their listening habits on social media platforms like Twitter and Facebook, fostering a sense of community and discovery among friends. The app also includes a “LyricPlay” feature, which displays synchronized lyrics as the song plays, turning your device into a karaoke machine.
Moreover, the Shazam Player offers quick access to YouTube, allowing users to watch music videos or live performances of their favorite tracks with just a tap. For concert-goers, the app provides ticket information, making it easier to find and purchase tickets for upcoming shows and events.
Another notable feature is the ability to create and manage playlists effortlessly. Users can organize their music into custom playlists, making it easier to find the perfect soundtrack for any occasion. The app also supports gapless playback, ensuring a smooth and uninterrupted listening experience.
The Shazam Player is not just about playing music; it’s about enhancing the entire music experience. Whether you’re discovering new artists, sharing your favorite tracks with friends, or singing along to the lyrics, the Shazam Player offers a comprehensive suite of features that cater to all your musical needs.
You can download the new app from the iTunes App Store now for free.
