Losing stars

This app used to be great but the last few times I’ve tried to use it the app is unable to identify the song. Not sure what happened but there is definitely a downgrade in usability.

What happened?!

The app no longer wants to recognize any songs… that would make this app pretty much useless.

Used to be 5 stars

I’ve had this app for probably a decade and it worked perfectly, loved it. Sometime in the last 4-6 months it’s completely stopped recognizing or identifying any song. End of an era? 🥺

Humming/Singing feature rarely works

I should be impressed that this feature works at all considering how complicated it must be to code for it. However it claims it can, and I tested it and maybe only 1/5 times could it identify what I was humming. I sung in choir so it’s not that i can’t hold a tune.

Poor for Jazz

Generally good for popular music but found to be very poor for contemporary jazz.

I’m giving you 3 stars.

So I was just adding songs to my playlist but then I searched up a song called “bones” by imagine dragons and the song did not pop up. So I tried a couple more songs and then another one didn’t work. It was called “tag your it” by Melanie Martinez. Another song was “middle of the night” by Elley duhe. And I think there are more song that are unlisted. Please add these song that are unlisted because this can be annoying to some music people. If you do this I will change the rating from a 3 to a 5. Thank you! And also make sure to keep up with the song rate. Or this can happen again. Once again, thank you!

I had supposedly the number one song finder app, and I can’t tell you how many times it didn’t find diddly! Where soundHound has never let me down!
