    @BeatShazamFOX @Shazam Why is the app not working this week? It’s been late syncing the last few weeks; and, tonight, it won’t sync at all. 😡

  • AshMarieLewis Ashley Marie Lewis (@AshMarieLewis) reported

    Another week of @Shazam not working to play @BeatShazamFOX?? Noooooo!!! :’( Please help us, tech team!!! 🙏🏻 #BeatShazam

  • imdavidkeith 𝐃𝐚𝐯𝐢𝐝 𝐊𝐞𝐢𝐭𝐡 (@imdavidkeith) reported

    @thealexrossart @comics_mercury Still funny how these different companies can get away with these Captain Marvel/Shazam copy cats which seems to be a copyright issue, and DC can’t put Captain Marvel on the front of books and merchandise because of Marvel’s trademark. Guess WB/DC doesn’t press the issue.

  • cehryl cehryl (@cehryl) reported

    i subtly but efficiently ran with my broken-ACL limp after a dude on a bike for 15 minutes trying to shazam the songs he was playing on speakers i would describe myself as passionate although creepy

  • flashydiver flashydiver (@flashydiver) reported

    @DEATHBATTLE @BillyBurson @RoosterTeeth If Shazam can literally punch a blackhole into existence, and moved faster than T H E F L A S H I'm pretty sure it's way more broken than taking over the earth

  • catnip Julia です (@catnip) reported

    @dazwright Absolutely, my Shazam didn’t let me down. Art Pepper is my main Bosch takeaway.

  • ridetheory Ride Theory (@ridetheory) reported

    What was the worst comic book of your childhood? Mine was Sad Sack. I'd sit down to wait at the barber shop, and did they have the lastest Amazing Spider-Man? One of those 100 page Batman comics with vintage stories? Shazam? Mad? Cracked? No. They had Sad Sack. It was the pits.

    **** SHAZAM NOT WORKING #enhypendiamond

  • RobertBMenke Robert Menke (@RobertBMenke) reported

    @rishmishra Way out of my zone here but doesn’t shazam basically provide this as a service?

  • ScatterBrainUK ScatterBrainUK🏳️‍🌈 (@ScatterBrainUK) reported

    @DetMuffins @TheRiddlermikee @mambalambaa Shazam. He spent his whole childhood trying to track her down, ruining dozens of potential new families, thinking she'd simply lost him at a fair when he was like 3 when actually she'd dumped him & moved on. Wouldn't even talk to him properly or let him hug her when he found her.

  • captaintrainor Will (@captaintrainor) reported

    @JustEdLeng @xvanguardomegax @FlTZS The humor was never a problem It worked fine in Shazam, BOP and AQ because it was part of the director's vision The issue was always in trying to insert into films not designed for that That was WB's main issue with the early films, trying to "fix" things halfway through

  • maggiexolove92 Maggie Ann (@maggiexolove92) reported

    @Shazam what is wrong with the app?? Every week there is a problem!

    Why at 1am did I decide to go down the Shazam movie conspiracy rabbit hole?

  • msabbeyroad ✭ abbey ✭ (@msabbeyroad) reported

    If im in my living room & i can shazam the song playing in your car while you’re parked down the street, its too damn loud

  • rsr370 Ray 🇲🇦 (@rsr370) reported

    this girl was driving right on my ***, so I rolled my windows down to tell her to relax because there’s cars in front of me & she goes “I’m sorry, I was tryna shazam the song you were playing!” what are we doing here???

  • soulljahhh Lee| Social Strategist 📲 (@soulljahhh) reported

    Why is Shazam not being real a thing. I’m so curious. I wonder was it bc of the kid actor who killed himself or bc it was just a terrible movie... Hmmph

  • daamiedwards Daami 😐👍 (@daamiedwards) reported

  • gnrlgrevious Calvin now Hobbes (@gnrlgrevious) reported

    So@mich for @Shazam family night. Broken app in the one time the app should work… ya know during the show called #shazam

  • JustEdLeng J. Edward Lenger 🌹 (@JustEdLeng) reported

    @captaintrainor @xvanguardomegax @FlTZS The humor was never a problem, but WB wanted to add humor. That was the problem. They tried to do that with SS. Shazam may got some treatment but was ultimately fine. BoP too for the most part. However, Aquaman got some mistreatment when adding “humor.” It’s cringe.

  • mrnobody324has mrnobody324has (@mrnobody324has) reported

    @RainCF_ I really wish Henry could have done it but he had scheduling issues Hopefully we see him in shazam 2 or black adam

  • BTS_TWOUSHI BtsToushi💛🧈 BTS7⃣ᴾᵀᴰ (@BTS_TWOUSHI) reported

    @GoldenMaknae222 First login and allow microphone and location then Shazam . Then for 2and shazam go to app info then delete all data then again allow microphone and location then login then Shazam . Repeat this for more Shazam.

  • Nishaquarles24 Rocky Waters🌊💙 (@Nishaquarles24) reported

    Just had to turn my brightness down in the car and use Shazam😭

  • Miguel081500569 Miguel_Jonathan_RM_007 #RestoreTheSnyderVerse (@Miguel081500569) reported

    @fakename5557777 @NightwingRock You said that Cavill, had contract problems and could not film for Shazam, given the chance that neither Joe, nor Ray and nor Wayne, do not have a contract with WB. The contract was a problem, for that scene? NOT.

  • DaredevilShill Commander Red (@DaredevilShill) reported

    @DaSpideyShill Ofc he is, they're not gonna erase him. In terms of Henry Cavill, it's really down to him, WB offered him a role in Shazam but he denied it, we'll just have to wait and see
