Sep 22, 2020 Apple has made improvements to Control Center in iOS 14, and more are coming. From iOS 14.2, Control Center is going to include a Shazam music-recognition button, too. Nov 28, 2020 To identify a song using Shazam, bring down the Control Centre by Swiping down from the top right corner of the display. Tap the Music recognition button that looks like the Shazam logo. Once it turns on, you would see a red dot on the top right corner of the screen.
iOS 14.2 makes it possible
What do you do when you hear a song playing around you and want to identify it? Well, we have been either summoning Siri on our iPhones or Apple Watch, asking her to recognize the song, or have been launching the Shazam app for the same purpose. Video chat gay en mexico. Both options come in handy most of the time but take their own sweet time. Waking up Siri does take a few seconds and fishing out Shazam from the list of apps can also waste a few moments. These few moments are often key when you are out hearing and trying to identify a random song. Also, speaking to your phone (rather than on it) in public can get you some weird glances.
Well, all of this can now be avoided. You can figure out what song is playing around you with just a single tap on your iPhone.
Yep, that simple. The iOS 14.2 update has introduced a feature that will allow you to tap and recognize the songs playing around you. The feature called, “Music Recognition” is basically Shazam in your Control Centre. For those who might have forgotten, Apple bought Shazam back in 2018 for $400 million and after integrating it with Siri, the brand is further weaving the music recognition software into its OS. But instead of calling it Shazam, Apple has added it as Music Recognition with a Shazam logo. And it puts song recognition a tap away on your iPhone.
Here is how you can get the feature on your iPhone!
Update! Update! Update!
First things first, your iPhone must be running on iOS 14.2 or above in order to get this feature working on your device. If you have not updated your iPhone, you can easily do so by going to Settings. Pick out “General” and then tap on “Software Update”. From here you can update your iPhone to the latest version of iOS available in your region.

Add Shazam To Control Centre
Next time you hear a song around that you want to identify, do not summon Siri or launch Shazam. Simply swipe down (or up, based on what iPhone you are using) to access your Control Centre, tap on the Shazam icon which is now called Music Recognition. And let it do the job for you. It will identify the song and show it as a notification, tapping on which will open the song in Shazam.

Apple-owned Shazam is the most popular music-identification service in the world. Starting with iOS 14.2, your iPhone, iPad and iPod touch can identify music playing around you or in apps via Shazam-powered music recognition available from the Control Center.
In a nutshell, if you’ve got the iOS or iPadOS 14.2 beta installed:

Me, I ask Siri:
“What song is this?”
Both seem to work equally well. I’m guessing they fire up the same exact bit of code. The Control Center approach is much more subtle if you’re in a room with others. Good to have both.
