The favorite application of musical recognition of all, Shazam, has just obtained a new update that comes with a new small, but particularly useful feature, which has improved its integration with Spotify and Apple Music. The latest version of the application (version 18.9), which arrived on March 5, comes with an improved synchronization function that automatically adds its songs identified within the Shazam application to a playlist in its Spotify or Apple Music account. Until now, it seems that it is available only for Spotify and Apple Music users.
When you use Shazam’s musical recognition on iPhone and iPad, these songs will be automatically added to a special playlist entitled ‘My Shazam Tracks’. Before Apple launched version 18.9 of the application, the songs manually identified through the Shazam application would be synchronized with a separate playlist on their Spotify or Apple Music account, but not songs discovered through the Control Center. The new update changes that, and now add songs to the playlist when identified through Siri and shortcuts, as well as the control center.
Since he joined the Apple family in 2018, Shazam has become more than a simple application of musical recognition and has improved the experience of the best music transmission services through their integrations, and its new ability to predict the music that it will listen to in the future. According to the description of iOS App Store, this is exactly how you can expect the latest update to further improve your experience:
We have synchronize songs with Apple Music and Spotify better than ever! Shazam will now include songs found through musical recognition at the Control Center, Siri, and shortcuts to his reproduction list of “My Shazam tracks” in Apple Music or Spotify.
Simply alternate “synchronize your songs” in Shazam’s configuration to synchronize all your discovered songs from the Shazam application. You may have to reopen Spotify to see the renewed playlist.
Do not forget to keep your Shazam history and synchronized among your devices. To do this, turn on the ICloud synchronization in the Shazam configuration ‘.
For me, Shazam is one of my music applications, when it comes to the identification of songs and I cannot say what is currently reproducing, or even when I like the sound of a song and I want to learn more. It also works wonderfully for when a family song begins to play during a movie or television show. It is a new but quite effective feature, and this is how you can take advantage of it.

It can be found in the ‘My Music’ section of the application when sliding on the main song search page. From there, connect your Spotify or Apple Music to Shazam account and enable the alternation ‘synchronize your songs’.
When the lever enables, Shazam must synchronize all his songs identified in his Spotify or Apple Music account to create his reproduction list ‘My Shazam Packs’. If it does not synchronize at the beginning, I made mine work and off the alternations several times.
