Shazam Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
King Shazam (@KingShazam_) reportedThey think banishing me to the stars will save them. Let Superman build back his broken moon. I am King Shazam, and my fury will return to claim what is mine.
-
Krypton Report Podcast (@KryptonReport) reported@StebobM @StevenKentSV My issues I feel like the rock made it too, overly complicated about not just letting black Adam be a villain, who then has an arc to be more anti-hero wish with his past storyline, and then I feel like him also fighting against not wanting to be connected to Shazam hurt
-
Joshua Knight (@Jobrin93) reported@WkndatBurnies @MikeWill_0 That’s the problem you really can’t have Black Adam story without Shazam unfortunately
-
Alan 👽 (@DioxideMedia) reportedShazam is DCs spiderman. Like hands down. Fuuuuuck where’s the new Shazam movie ?! Helllloo? @JamesGunn
-
Outlaw Linc (@OutlawLinc) reported@Itssan17 DC biggest issue is that they have never had a real plan for their superheros. They tried to copy and paste what Marvel did but Marvel evolved and found ways to appeal to the comic book fan and the casual fan and also make a good movie. DC hasn't been able to do that since The Dark Knight. The had a few hits like, Wonder Woman, Aquaman and Shazam but allt hose films blew it with their audience by the sequel.

Chempeko! (@Chempeko) reported@nebuIastarlight He's like Shazam except you have to say New York is in trouble or sum ****
-
The Problematic Kevhulk73 🇺🇸🐉💀 (@kevhulk73) reported@tuvya68 @Hollywood_Solo That was even the problem with the modern Shazam movies ..that fans complained because Shazam acted exactly like Billy.
-
get borged 🍑 (@malonpeach) reportedgod i ******* hate that kiki song… my (terrible) date played it like 25 times while we were hanging out. like ******* Please I’m Gonna Kill Us Both For Real. wouldn’t even play a DIFFERENT terrible drake song. AND THEN HE TOOK ME TO SEE SHAZAM worst date imaginable…
-
Robert P. Glover (@RPGlover) reported@ClassicKun93 Please, stop larping as someone with intelligence. MAWS season 3 was terrible- the show should be done. Snyder’s universe wasn’t great nor Shazam nor Black Adam nor, Supergirl- although, it had moments. You may go, ClassicBaka.
-
Julie Hill (@hill_julie75450) reported@wakeupusa Oh Geez, not another new word. Besides a cheek swab, just pull your pants down and see what you were born with. Shazam you are a female and or shazam you are a male. No one's taking their rights to identify how they want, but you can't negate biological reality.
-
Zack Straw 🇹🇩 (@_Ramifications_) reportedaccidentally added my entire Shazam history to my Apple Music library, critical error

Recovery Simp (@recovery_simp) reportedThis COSOMA debate made me realize something… A thread 1/ While everyone is arguing about royalty payouts, I’m seeing something different. I’m seeing a system problem. And software problems are meant to be solved. 2/ If artists don’t fully trust how royalties are calculated… If the public doesn’t understand the monitoring system… If people keep asking where the numbers come from… That’s a transparency problem. Transparency is exactly what technology can improve. 3/ Imagine a platform that monitors radio and TV broadcasts in real time. Not guesses. Not spreadsheets passed around. Actual digital monitoring with an auditable trail. 4/ Imagine every song played being automatically detected using audio fingerprinting—similar to how Shazam recognizes music. Every play gets recorded. Every record has a timestamp. Every calculation can be traced. 5/ Now imagine every artist having their own dashboard. “My song played 287 times this month.” “These are the stations.” “These are the broadcasts.” “This is exactly how my royalty was calculated.” No mystery. Just data. 6/ The platform could also allow broadcasters to upload playlists digitally instead of relying only on manual submissions. Everything becomes faster. Everything becomes easier to audit. Everything becomes more transparent. 7/ And why stop there? Churches… Event organizers… Festivals… DJs… Could also submit licensed digital setlists. The more legitimate usage we capture, the fairer the royalty system becomes. 8/ This isn’t just a COSOMA solution. It’s a solution for every collective management organization across Africa that struggles with monitoring, reporting and royalty distribution. That’s a regional software market. 9/ This is the type of software Malawi can build. We don’t always have to import technology. Sometimes we should build the infrastructure ourselves. 10/ That’s why I’m putting this idea out there. I’m looking for partners who believe Malawi can build world-class technology. Investors. Government. COSOMA. Broadcasters. Let’s build it together. 11/ Imagine Malawi becoming the country that develops one of Africa’s most transparent copyright royalty systems. Not because we complained. Because we built the solution. 12/ Sometimes the biggest opportunities don’t come from asking, Why is the system like this? They come from asking, What if I built something better?

𝕄𝕒𝕟 𝕝𝕚𝕜𝕖 𝕡𝕖𝕥𝕦𝕤 𝕏 (@bahdmanpetus) reported@larrytooreaal You can just take a screenshot from the edit and send to any ai it’ll give you the answer , if there’s to be something like Shazam for movies it’ll neeed access to your screen , privacy issues would arise
-
Dika_Clips 🎬🍿 (@moviesbydika) reported@bekeestitches Yeah the writing was the real issue. Shazam himself was never the problem.
-
GMVC🏴 (@_GMVC) reported@jaycubedd Wonder Woman, Aquaman and Shazam all were good imo, the rest was terrible man
-
Zei ☄️ (@ZeiSpaceKaiju) reported@Michael78637393 @Abs0luteN0b0dy @UpdatesCAP4 Not exactly. Miracle man is not Alan moore's character. He reinvent him in his run but the character was an attempt to have a new Shazam by the same creator way back before Alan comes. After Alan Neil Gaiman also wrote a few issues
-
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
-
Ege (@egyrm) reported@Shakajaka1234 Charmy has been a part of the HIVE in the issue actually lmao. Which was a misunderstanding by his side. Not that he can not be Shazam, though Bumblebee makes more sense imo.
-
Jason Quinteros (@JQuinteros63) reported@BrownBastard90 @sonyabladesbf Comics & games & DCTV was doing fine at the time. Most DCEU movies post-Aquaman 1 were doing terrible and that’s on BVS? What about Shazam or Birds of Prey?
-
Donal DeLay (@DonalTDeLay) reportedI went back & reworked Jaeger Bomb 3 times. First he was a down on his luck Luchador that gets powers to fight Kaiju after he drinks. Then it was a Shazam knock off, then it went back to the first iteration but with some lore changes to give the powers history & more purpose.
-
Reef (@Reefmetax) reported@barkmeta If anyone knows what that second to last song was, let me know. I was turning it down before I could hit Shazam
-
SYNNRG (@synnrg_) reported@GunntArchive Shazam had a terrible script and writing tho, this film series relied upon Zachary Levi"s acting way too much
-
Johnathan Holmes (@JoNathan129711) reported@netrusila_maxim @warnerbros Snyderverse was ****. Sure, they had some good movies like Zack Snyd Snyder's Justice League, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Shazam, and Blue Beetle. But it also had terrible people (Ezra Miller), and it tried to be many things. #SnyderverseisDead, and it is better if it stays that way.
-
***** Archer 🏹 (@DirtyArcher) reported@NicholasCraven_ Man i heard a sample like a year ago and tried to Shazam it but my service was *** and til this day I'm still trying to figure out the song lol.
-
@iamLenoBoss (@LENO_BOSS1) reportedEveryone blamed Shazam, when the real problem was the writing and how the character was handled. 😭🔥 The potential was always there.
-
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.
-
BANG CHAN 방찬 GLOBAL 🍋🩵 (@BangChanGlobal) reported📣 | UPDATE: After numerous templates and emails since 2025, it seems as though Bang Chan’s Spotify profile has now been fixed, with the fake songs removed. HOWEVER! Issues still persist across YouTube/YouTube Music, Apple Music, Shazam, Amazon Music, Tidal and Deezer. We will provide an updated template once we have finished reviewing each platform in depth.

mary.y13 (@Jenniefansgn) reportedThe Shazam issue has been fixed but we won't be able to reach our goal I really hope this doesn't happen again especially since there are covers of the other leaked songs as well
