-
jon kent apologist (@jonkentism) reported(some ppl dogged on that shazam issue but it makes sense to me somehow sorry.. what jon needs the most after his age up trauma is learning how to adapt and not keep things to himself otherwise he'll always be a kid in his head, he needs to eventually grow up)
-
THE CAPTAIN ⚡️ (@Lightingclap) reported@UpbvatReporter “A-an interview?” Shazam stammered nervously as he looked down at the reporter. He laughed, rubbing the back of his neck. “With me? Are you sure? There’s plenty of other heroes around.”

jaelyn (@bbjaesimp) reportedI hv to know what song this iz cuz my shazam is not working😭

Hyu0325 🩶 𝕭𝖔𝖚𝖓𝖈𝖊𝕭𝖆𝖈𝕶 𝕸𝖆𝖓𝖎𝖈 (@thisishyuA) reported@DivineHannie @Shazam @Shazam I have reported this issue via the application reporting system multiple times
-
Jaymovies (@juliandceu) reported@jayjjalen I know the plots with his own villains are already so much better than king Shazam or the Ras plot. Like his parasite 2 issue was even better.
-
minion maniac (@ihateweirdcreep) reported@magmortality @MyNameIsWepeeI I have a really bad auditory processing problem and unironically just figured out today that a song I’ve been enjoying when I hear it come on is not, in fact, in English. I only figured it out because I finally thought to Shazam the song because I couldn’t remember enough words to Google it myself. I was like “wait what there’s zero English” So basically I do this to the highest degree with any song in any language :)

catie (@catierowling) reported@LucindaAntwix @rikcatberryy Shazam was terrible , Snow White was terrible, y2k was one of the worst ranking a24 films, she was in the worst rated hunger games film EVEN her animated film did badly and she didn’t get completely positive reviews for R+J Kit was the one getting the critic awards
-
Cultured.souls (@CulturedSouls) reported@empatheticcain It wasn’t a rights issue. DC could always call Billy Captain marvel and even did so several times in alternate universes when his name was “Shazam” They just couldn’t call his comics “Captain marvel” and Geoff Johns decided to change the name in the New 52.

TBPN (@tbpn) reportedShazam Founder @Inghelbrecht says Shazam should never have existed. To build the company in 2000, the team had to digitize one of the world’s largest music libraries before streaming existed. They had to invent music recognition technology from scratch and physically build the computing infrastructure needed to run it before companies like Google Cloud and AWS were around. They also had to convince mobile carriers to support a product category nobody had ever seen before. Inghelbrecht says even if each of those problems only had a 10% chance of working, the odds of Shazam surviving were practically zero.

EvoTwinz (@evotwinz) reportedSHAZAM NOT WORKING! Internet do yall thing !
-
pipoco (@pipocostein) reportedwhen did shazam become so terrible? it’s literally unable to recognise “titanium” playing directly from the speaker although when i was kid i could start to sing and it would easily find the song
-
Atro (@Atrocitus2008) reported@roger_stev82377 Shazam would have no issues even if they all came at him at once.
-
Boeing Directed Energy Weapon Express (@vagefjoer) reportedTerrible to have a song stuck in your head but not being able to Shazam it with your brain
-
Miraïsenberg (@Mirai_Itami) reported@SirBylHolte If you got a problem with : « I don’t want the bad guys to get killed." "I don’t care how many people they hurt or kill along the way." u got a problem with : Superman Batman Spider-Man Daredevil Shazam Nightwing Captain America…
-
Jaoofy (@jaoofy37427) reported@ihatemeen_ with shazam and wonder woman alone they could stall long enough so barry could get bruce to where he keeps his kryptonite and grab some for himself to keep him down, and thats not assuming the rest of the league doesn't just outright win.
-
unamo6567 (@unamo6567) reported@Updates4DC He turned down playing Superman in shazam and didn't want to appear in any studio projects until they basically guaranteed him a superman movie which he never got. Zack Synder left WB Henry Cavil rejected the offer to play superman. Jason Mamoa said he rather be Lobo.
-
My SAVD Spirit (@SquallingSpirit) reported@Shazam Fix your app so that when you select Buy on iTunes, it takes you to the song and not the iTunes homepage. Recent app update still does not address this issue.
-
Hype Feed⚡⚡⚡ (@Hypershocke) reported@roger_stev82377 People seem to forget that Shazam is powered by six gods and imagine the six of them against Thor and hulk bro it's gonna be a massive beat down 💯💯💯
-
ɆmmΛnü℮⩚ (@nexusevent123) reported@OtunbaSebotimo @The_Big_Chifa_ One of the biggest issue was that Billy as a kid was too mature well composed and kinda mopey most times and when he becomes Shazam he acts like a complete child.
-
Chitsu! 🌟 (Tsubasa Fanclub CEO) (@danganholic) reported@futurexhope This is actually true, yeah. The term AI is hard to define in itself and it can include tools like even Microsoft Word or Shazam if not delimited enough, but generative AI is a very specific part of it that is the core of the whole issue with AI these past years. Not that hard

Robert P. Glover (@RPGlover) reported@TheComicSource Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, following the trajectory of failure around the aged up version of the character and the publication of perhaps the worst treatment of the property with the deceptive de-age in Shazam issue 20, this Superman Unlimited arc WOULD be a hoax if the young version of Jon does not remain in current continuity. Too often, editors forget that fans are people also- customers marking tally over each and every deficient story arc, and glaring lack of competence marring canon over time. DC certainly paid no attention to sales numbers, fan feedback, Go-Fund-Me campaigns… watching the publisher fall on their face with the Jon Kent character- heck, with core Kryptonian titles, has not been “fun.”
-
Al Berto (@AlbertoMRamirez) reported@TheCinesthetic I don’t think it’s a disaster of a movie. I really like so much of it, that it overshadows the issues the film does have. But it’s def not a horrible or even bad movie. I mean the first one is better. But WW84 is better than Quantumania, Fantastic Four, Shazam 2, The Marvels,etc
-
Kaya 'Dalamanli' Wesley (@kayadalamanli) reportedBRRUHHHHH my Loop app is becoming wild!! OBD-II scans. a shazam for car sounds. registration and repair reminders. car wash tracking. photo & video based damage scanner for scratches, dents, broken lights, glass, and those balding tires you got Opie is turning into a co-pilot!
-
Born To Boogie - Marc Bolan Archive (@GlamRockMarc) reported📆 April 19, 2002, “Jeepster” by T. Rex became the first song successfully identified by Shazam. This happened during a pre-launch test of the service, which at the time required users to call a phone number and receive the song title via text message. The company, now owned by Apple, has since developed technology capable of identifying billions of songs.
-
Edzil Saliba Timber (@Ednah___) reportedShazam is not working but he’s added the track titles for all the songs!
-
Aliff Aziz (@AliffAziz9) reported@OtunbaSebotimo It’s a great movie. The only problem is teenage Billy Batson is played as a serious, street-smart kid, but when he transforms into Shazam, he completely changes into an over-the-top, immature goofball. Doesn’t feels like they the same person
-
herb 🌿 (@theybert) reportedshazam is the worst card service out there LET ME SPEND MY ******* MONEY
-
ionuț 95 (fan account) (@BraveForGaga95) reportedIt's on you if you can't see it, the song is literally #2 on Shazam Global, radios keeps refusing to play it, the streams are going down instead of up, the views on YT are also going down. Anyway those are just soundtrack songs so idc that much overall if they don't do it
-
Pavlos 🦅 (@the_shrimp_lord) reported@ihatemeen_ superman would beat any of them one on one but shazam and wonder woman together could probably take him down also batman would def kryptonite on standby if this ever happened
-
is waiting for smth🎟️ (@qui_sako_) reportedI thought SBP was niched but then why ******** when I asked for some random comics (DNDM, Shazam, the SPECIFIC issue where Prime appeared) to the comic store guy he IMMEDIATELY clocked my *** that I wanted comics where Prime appeared and found the InfiniteCrisis hard cover for me
