-
Why You Yelling (@Whyyouyelling1) reported@WongUpdates That was cool as ****. I'll never forgive the internet for gaslighting us into thinking Black Adam was a terrible movie cause the Rock didn't want to interact with those mid *** Shazam movies
-
uche (@Ando_boy9090) reported@bigjozzy @tolathebaddest No na no be iPhone u dey use? Scroll down Shazam am
-
Blackboy (@blackboyrizzy) reported@bekeestitches Shazam catching strays when he wasn’t even the problem 😭 Somebody owes bro an apology.
-
Yash solankee (@Yash48902641) reportedthis is currently not supported due to Android/Nothing OS limitations, rather than a Shazam permission issue. It worked on my older Poco C3, so this feels like a step backward.
-
Jimmy (@Jommy8311980158) reported@ReemAmirIbrahim @reason Wow. Grocery prices in RI about to increase Soooo stupid. Kinda like rent control, units available go down and Shazam it gets worse. ****** clowns
-
Jabbar 4PF (@crazybroda) reportedGovernor Shazam will be worse than Mr Jeans. No plans to fix housing issues in Lagos.
-
BigE 🌴 (@_enoch_eze_) reported@esosaleonard @farbulou One of my major problems with DC and Superman is their inconsistency with him. Magic has been stated a long time a ago to be one of Superman's major weaknesses. Him beating Shazam didn't make sense That bother is not beating Doom
-
AliceinOH (@MaliceinOH) reported@AndrewC62983550 @GBNEWS Sounds good until a MP is forced to step down so they can install Burnham, then Shazam he's PM in months!

Tom Alder (@tomaldertweets) reported2002. You're in a cafe and a song you don't know is playing. There's no iPhone. No App Store. Both are 5 years away. So you pull out your Nokia and dial 4 digits: 2580. You hold the phone toward the speaker. 30 seconds later, the call hangs up on its own. Then a text arrives: song title, artist name. That was Shazam's initial product. They picked 2580 because the digits run straight down the middle of the keypad. The wrapper was a phone call and an SMS. The audio fingerprinting behind that text is the same core tech that powers the app today. So when the iPhone arrived in 2007 and the App Store in 2008, Shazam was ready on day 1, with 6 years of data and a proven product. 16 years later, Apple bought them for a reported $400m.

Marco Almeida (@MarcoAlmeidaPT) reportedCar stereo playing a song on the radio. iPhone connected via CarPlay. Opening Shazam or Apple’s own “recognize music” tool immediately shuts down the radio. I know taking over the car stereo audio when the microphone is activated is the standard behavior, but it’s kind of stupid in this scenario, right?
-
Ken Hommel (@TooCloseToTheTV) reported@BackintheBronze Sent cash in for Shazam! then it was cancelled. For the two remaining issues, they sent a Super Friends and a Superman. I also got one of the many subs won in the Superman Trivia Contest. I chose Action so I would get the giant sized #500.
-
Bob Genghis Khan (@bob_genghis) reported@PopverseSays He’s not a strong actor but shave his face, down his hair black and he’s silver age Shazam/CM
-
McDreamy (@grandpachann) reportedI really do hope it/when they bring Shazam into the DCU that this is the type of interaction we get. I love when they don’t realize he’s a kid at first and then it becomes an issues
-
Kieran (@hangable) reported@xstinamendez Am I going crazy or is that Mall Grab tune pitched down or something? I thought it was a remix but Shazam picked it up as the original.
-
Eric S.w.a.n.SUN (@LuckyTPUB) reported@Duranous @EthanVanSciver The Beetle movie was sadly positioned at the switch over and it really was not terrible. Same with the Shazam flicks. Some of the better ones of that era. Maybe its AI but from what I understand this is who should be appearing in the next Superman movie
-
BERLUSCONI (@joevannitrap) reported@SavvyRinu No mind them, they are just tensioning people up and down, my own is the song playing at the background. I just had to shazam it now and findout the title... Straight to download it.. Johnny Drille - Stars Align
-
Blair (@blaira99) reportedJust heard a song that was so terrible that I had to Shazam it bc I thought I was hallucinating it
-
Oliver Fit (@aipusher) reported@tomaldertweets Everyone talks about being early on a platform. Shazam was early on the problem.
-
Clipsbaba 🪖 (@Clipsbaba21) reported@bekeestitches Yeah the writing tanked it, Shazam himself was never the real problem.
-
🆔 (@Nobleboyy7) reported@slowswirling Whats this song my shazam is down atm
-
Remy Etienne Lebeau (@UnderwaterSquad) reported@thorkahh @iREUS_SA I kinda wonder where the spikes come from. I’m not all the way caught up. I just finished issue Abs Superman #20. I wasn’t sure if that was John Henry Irons or if it was Superman himself in that upgraded armor he wore when he pushed King Shazam to another planet in space
-
Hank: The Pleasant Pesant (@PesantHank) reportedBlack Adam is a terrible movie that condenses and warps Adam's character to skip to him being an anti-hero, jams a quarter of the JSA in there for some reason, excludes Shazam, and has the Rock but I liked the costumes.
-
Raven (@screamRAVEN) reported@JovanHoward13 Crazy thing though for DC (and any superhero franchise for that matter), anyone can be casted for whatever role. I love The Rock, but he forgot he doesn't own that character like that. If they fix Shazam down the line, then so be it. I'll probs be in my 70s by then lol
-
Oye Superstar (@Oyesuperstar) reportedBro. Just me. Running down the street. Dancing to a song Shazam couldn't even find.
-
JOHN 🍿 🇺🇸 (@Tmbenedict) reported@bekeestitches The problem wasn’t Shazam… it was forcing a pure joy character into a universe that only wanted grimdark and corporate synergy.
-
SYNNRG (@synnrg_) reported@GunntArchive Shazam had a terrible script and writing tho, this film series relied upon Zachary Levi"s acting way too much
-
Blake “Axe” Avignon (@bobby_s_axelrod) reported@DosEvil @TheRock Biggest mistake was not playing his ego down and crossing over to Shazam. You’re a villain, lose magnificently and enjoy the work. He turned into a mark for Black Adam.
-
justhugee (@Justhugee) reported@elEmilio_W The problem is he thinks he has more pull in Hollywood than writers and directors. You don’t even know the source material, why the *** are you producing a full feature film about a Shazam villian.
-
db00_0 (@BobDole01118706) reported@garaa_arc The fact he refused to work with Shazam was also a huge problem. His ego got in the way.
-
DD (@DComicTalks) reported@LifeMi1987 @Arthur65381575 We also already had the Batman that character had already been rebooted the issue was recasting Wonder Woman while she still had a big role in Shazam 2 and a role in flash
