JAKARTA - Apple has just rolled out an update to the Shazam app, which can now identify music from social media apps or third parties easily.

The app includes TikTok, YouTube, and Instagram. Since buying Shazam in 2018, Apple has integrated live music recognition at the Control Center on iOS for super fast access.

In addition to identifying songs in other applications, Shazam is also useful for viewing tag history and managing user playlists.

Here's how to use Shazam to identify songs in other apps.

1. Find songs that play in the background of other applications, such as in TikTok, YouTube or Instagram videos.

2. Open the Shazam application.

3. Click the Shazam button.

4. Switch back to third-party apps so Shazam can listen.

5. Shazam will then display the title of the song to you.

Users can also activate the Auto Shazam feature, so that the app can identify songs when they browse third-party applications, as quoted from CNET, Monday, July 10. Here's how to do it below.

1. Open the Shazam application.

2. Press and hold the Shazam button. You will see a message that reads Auto Shazam is on.

3. Switch to third-party apps and let Shazam do his job.

4. Shazam will then save the identified song in your library, so you can check it again later after it's finished scrolling.

5. To turn off Auto Shazam, return to the app, tap the Shazam button and the feature will be disabled.
