Shazam Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Jake 🇬🇧🗽 (@jakonian) reportedI've spent about 2 hours trying to figure out this one song I heard in a McDonald's as children screamed. I had no service, couldn't Shazam. Little Bird by Annie Lennox. I genuinely cheered.
-
KIRAN KUMAR (@kd83kiran) reported@james88982622 Why wasn’t it allowed in the first place, why didn’t AQUAMAN, Wonder Woman or Shazam didn’t face that specific problem. It’s because his movies are the problem. Even at full creative control director cuts exist for his rebel moon movies.
-
Quako’s Shut (@nicholaski) reportedShazam might be the only app that solves an actual problem people ever developed but Instagram allowing you to add music to your Spotify liked songs without switching apps is right up there too
-
Mr.Zoolman (@MrZoolman90s) reported@CCharisma97 In fairness to one of them, Shazam was really bad and didn’t draw money in its franchise. I can partly understand it even as a power move. My only issue is he 100% wanted to beat Superman just to look cool. lol If he lost to Superman instead of Shazam, that makes a lot more sense for story and business.
-
bori | IT'S PRIME TIME!!! (@bori___cha) reported@MILFMlLK source wall yes. I forgor abt that ngl (it happens after the green cube) but the monsterlands... uncertain. death metal almost entirely decanonizes his shazam issues bc it acts as if he just got out of the source wall but honestly who freakin knows
-
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.
-
Trevor Buchet 🇺🇸 🇩🇪 (@MichaelKrause6) reportedRemember the first time CNN and its anchors were used in a movie. Its was Contact. Then Batman v Superman and Wolf in SkyFall and MI and Shazam. But now they pop up in 3 Body Problem and its just pathetic. Can we go back to fake networks and not cheer or moan because its CNN
-
Kol El (@Pryme_Official) reported@maxvayshia Black Adam and Thor will seriously wear him down. Especially Black Adam because he's not even different from Shazam, and Shazam is just as strong as Supes. Hancock too tbh. That n!gga built different fr. The rest are insects.
-
~X~ (xgrrrl1) (@jnsqxgrrrl1) reported@RaminNasibov @TheBookofG1nk0 I downloaded Merlin but it will absolutely not work unless you give location permissions which is not cool. I mean it listens through mic AND tracks location. Privacy issue. Someone needs to invent a competitor that makes it optional! Bird Shazam on demand w/ manual loc data
-
🇳🇴 AahYesHello 🐧🎶 (@AahYesHello) reported@ri_neb LandR is pretty decent in my opinion here is pros and cons: pro: They give you shazam, contentID for free Cover licenses are a one time payout If you stop paying your subscription they won't take down your songs, but take a 15% cur from your revenue Support team are humans only and no useless chat bot cons: Because they dont use AI in their systems they have a manual QC team that needs to look through your release and manually approve which takes some business days If you're making a remix they need documentation for rights of sample usage which takes even more days to process They dont support label plans and is generally for solo artists so if you were planning a "Various Artist" release it is usually meant for 1-3 artists per release Hope this helps
-
Swayze_Train (@Swayze_Train_87) reported@charles_o90392 @DeIudedShaniqwa @gofundme Shazam cracka! Then so did Karmelo’s. They didn’t take his **** down. Keep your fingers crossed tho.
-
T3Collects (@T3Collects) reportedYour other location 25 mins away? All the same figures except Shazam were also sitting on the shelf because it was already bought. I don't understand why you guys can't fix your inventory issues!!!
-
Har Dey Wale🪖 (@CFC_adewale) reported@Ayeloja0 You people will just sit down and hype rubbish Seyi dey pack quantity over quality, that’s why his songs don’t have replay value why do you think people still dey go back and vibe to all Asake old albums till today? Who still dey remember Shazam or Instagram today lol
-
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!
-
Flerken (@NotFlerken) reported@DragonMaster478 @ExigaNail @DEB10042 It’s just how things have been for decades. He was called Captain Marvel all the way through the 2000s. In New 52, DC decided they wanted to get rid of the complicated rights issue by just naming him Shazam instead. Which led to a lot of conflict with fans.
-
Iceysnow (@kit_mayya) reported@CleanCasinoGuy At first I was scared i was one of the people watering it down since i actively use hyperfixation. Then i remembered it's not normal to space out and ignore reality, eating, talking, etc, until you get to read the next issue of Shazam. Tbh, I didn't even know ts was happening. 😭
-
Igor Brigadir 🇺🇦 (@IgorBrigadir) reportedDRAMA 🎭 at the public library! Some lad walked in and started blasting some tune about sucking **** or something like that and the library staff had trouble getting him to stop. Sickened I didn’t manage to Shazam the track - might have been his own creation. We will never know.
-
CkarasuStreams (@CkarasuStream) reported@Jaereku My issue isn't the dialogue or characters, but what is actually happening in the comic can cross the line into the absurd. And not the funny or good kind. Having a Shazam expy that just rapes people is so goofy it takes me out. That's just one example.
-
Ziggy (@ZquadboyZ) reported@dailystarzam Retire Billy, have the Shazam mantel be passed down every couple years, because Billy staying a child ruins any semblance of a timeline. Also Shazam is a cool name
-
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.”
-
ewgenijwolkow (@ewgenijwolkow) reportedwhat happened to @Shazam ? There was a time when you could hum a song for 5sec and it would find it. Now you can play 10sec of the actual song and it doesn’t find anything?! What a degradation of service
-
AHOF_Lyn_Mango🌟🐈⬛ 🦊 🐯🐤 🐰 🐶 🐸 🐻 (@fa14059) reported@GrlUndrTheStrs What’s the name of the background music? I really love it. I tried to Shazam it but it’s not working.
-
Chris Craddock (@ChrisCraddock5) reportedReed: Yes, I do. He needed somebody to talk to her and find out what would she say if she was asked about Jeffrey Epstein, and you were the perfect choice. And you went down there and suddenly - Shazam, she’s out.”
-
Julie Barrett (@juliecbarrett) reportedLast week Idaho Governor Brad Little signed HB 542, Stop Harms from Addictive Social Media Act (SHASM - ADF calls is “Shazam!! 💥”) While the bill seems to have good intentions, it’s impossible to implement without universal age verification - handing MORE data of children to Big Tech - and constant behavioral monitoring of children online. This “solution” will undoubtedly make the problem worse. Additionally, it is the opposite of “parental empowerment”, forcing a government mandate on every family.
-
Optimal Popsicle (@MansplainStuff) reported@ihatemeen_ Not like this, no. He takes out Batman first, cuz that ****** has the green rock. Then Flash, cuz he can fetch more green rocks, but wont think about it til Bruce is down. His biggest problems then are Shazam and WW cuz they are magic based.
-
Edzil Saliba Timber (@Ednah___) reportedShazam is not working but he’s added the track titles for all the songs!
-
DarthDan (@FanAttic007) reported@Jabz_CFC Shazam 2 was a terrible movie probably the worst DC comic book movie ever ! And yes that includes Ryan Reynolds green lantern
-
Anna (@Annanasow) reportedSeems to me that illegal 'back to life' has been finally taken down from ig. Still shazam to go...
-
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.
-
Tyrecea⚛️ (@Tyrecea_z) reportedBesides the black adam 6 issue or maybe it was 12 issue comic of bolt. I do not know this *****, I just like a concept of a black guy as Shazam-esque character
