Shazam's latest update for iDevices lets you add songs to Instagram Stories in a few taps.
Version 12.3 of Apple-owned Shazam landed this week, and the new feature is super-simple to use.
All you do is Shazam in the usual way to identify it, tap the dots to the right of the "buy" or "add to" button, and then on the share button at the bottom of the display. You'll see a list of options that should now include Instagram Stories. Select it and your story will be the name of the track, the artist, and how many Shazams it's received to date.
Any 'grammers who can view the story, if they're not yet using the app, click on the "more on Shazam" link to learn more about it.
Shazam names any song in seconds
Shazam enables users to identify songs in a matter of seconds simply by listening to it, and works anywhere with any audio source. Once you've been identified, you'll be able to find your way to the world, like it, or you'll be able to buy Apple iTunes, or buy it on iTunes, or share it via your social media feeds.
The free app has been downloaded over a billion times globally, with more than 20 million times each day.
Apple completed its acquisition of Shazam in September, 2018, making it free of ads in the process. The Cupertino, California-based giant tech reportedly paid $ 400 million to close the deal.
"Apple and Shazam have a long history together," Oliver Schusser, Apple's vice president of Apple Music, said at the time, "It's been a long time ago."
London-based Shazam launched its music service ID in 2002, though it was not until shortly before it came back in 2007.
The latest update featuring support for Instagram Stories can be found via your smartphone's app store app, or by hitting this iTunes link. There's no word yet on the feature coming to Android.
