Shazam has just released a new update for Windows 10, now .
Shazam for Windows 10 Home Screen
Shazam is best known as a pioneer in music-recognition technology, but over the past few years it has evolved into a rich experience that now helps fans do much more than identify what’s playing. Today, Shazam is an integral part of the daily routine for music lovers worldwide, helping them find new favorites and explore the discoveries of others. Shazam was built with the goal of connecting people to the world around them, and the app continues to take that mission to new heights.
The new update of Shazam for PC makes the connection even more seamless bringing the mobile phone experience to the desktop. Besides significant improvements to music recognition capabilities and the design of the app, it also includes a content feed that’s directly influenced by past Shazams and local charts that anticipate tomorrow’s hits today. We’ve also added Cortana support, enabling listeners to start the app with a simple voice command.
Shazam for Windows 10 was first announced during the keynote at //Build/ 2015 and then , which was accompanied by Shazam CEO Rich Riley’s quote about Windows 10 OS release.
“Shazam saw a 65% increase in the number of active users after the release of Windows 10 in August. Microsoft has been integral in making Shazam functionality a big part of the Windows 10 experience.”
— Rich Riley, CEO, Shazam
With the newly released features and rapidly growing Windows 10 adoption rate, it’s likely the trend will continue. Shazam fans on PC are experiencing a deeper engagement in tandem with the increased functionality.
