[Mobile][Search] Shazam-like option within the app

[JennaM6]

Being able to source a song you hear without leaving the app

That is a great idea~

So many times I wish I could "shazam" a song to listen to or add to a playlist on the go but it's just too cumbersome. It would be great if this were built in in a wy that recognizes the song and takes you to that albums page and maybe plays the song. Maybe its a glorified search option initially but itd be a great addition!

I can't believe that you're going to wait for 100 kudos to do something rhapsody has been doing for years...  Whoever is delaying this gets a -100 kudos from me right off the bat!  I came from Rhapsody and was quite disappointed that I had to sacrifice this kick a** feature!  The Rhapsody app was giving me issues on my S5 so I decided to check out Spotify.  I like Spotify but if you guys are going to lag behind on features like this I’ll be a bit easier to lure away!

Just take a look on the solution of another streaming service (you'll find it;): No Integration of Shazaam or soundhound, just an own music detection integrated. What are you waiting for? Do you want to wait until a lot of people recognize it and change their musicstreming service?

Amazing idea

[armenh1]

I've been using Spotify heavily for the past month or so. This is one feature I've constantly been coming back to. It's such a long process. It would practically erradicate Shazam for me. 

I do recognize a problem with this, however. Since Spotify has a limited database of music (The Beatles and Tool, for example, are not licensed) you wouldn't be able to get to all the songs you want. So you could Shazam a Beatles song (audio n00b) but Spotify would get you the closest match (terrible karaoke cover) or nothing at all. 

So while Shazam can identify a song and link OUT to it, wherever it is sold/available, Spotify cannot because it would only loop back to Spotify. Unless they want to strike up agreements to link out like Shazam does, except that would be counter-intuitive to their product, because well... Spotify wants you to use Spotify. 

Maybe some day...

To the guy above, this shouldn't be a problem. Spotify's database is only getting bigger and bigger. Like another guy said above, there is another similar service *cough* google's *cough* which has such a functionality, it automatically saves a list from the songs you detected and when you click them it takes you to the store. A simple spotify widget with that functionality would be perfect 🙂

Yes please!

I like that idea if we cant listen a song in the radio an Right away find that song in spotify should be easy create my playlist.....please make it happen

[vikthorpn]

That'd be great... imagine you're getting a ride to somewhere, and you're listening to the radio and plays a song that you never heard and start to like it... you could put to Spotify to identify it and as soon as the song was recognized, you can add at your playslist or favorites... perfect!

Please, implement it!
