Shazam Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Red Ranger Chris (@RedRangerChris) reportedI'll always stand by the fact that Blue Beetle was the best DC movie of that year. Shazam and Aquaman were totally forgettable at best, and The Flash had too many issues that ultimately held it back.
-
Javier (@Javier_1814) reportedPopularity wise seems about right. There's some like Batgirl and Supergirl that could go up a step but at the same time I understand why they're on that spot. Same with Shazam I'm 50/50 if he should be there or one step down.
-
osita (@osita9401) reported@bekeestitches Shazam was never the problem. People just underestimated him and didn’t understand what he was capable of.
-
Maino ⚡️🔱 (@kxngcurly__) reported@uniquemoviemom Always been my problem with how Shazam is written, he has wisdom of Solomon but at times it seems non existent

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.

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
-
Chempeko! (@Chempeko) reported@nebuIastarlight He's like Shazam except you have to say New York is in trouble or sum ****
-
Luna⁷𓍼(IA) (@2bts4kool) reportedI just saw someone Shazam they don’t know bout us at ARIRANG tour I legit had to put my phone down and sigh
-
Tyme machine 420 (@TymeM10638) reported@PghPublicSafety The city of coincidence. Lets look to our past. They wanted a new stadium to replace 3 rivers. Coincidentally, a wall mysteriously falls during a game. Fake prez Joe Biden came in to town to talk about decaying bridges...Shazam.. Frick park bridge comes down same day. Now 🤔
-
One_Lone_Pixel (@One_Lone_Pixel) reported@Mandevil23 He was terrible as Shazam. This didn’t matter in the slightest.
-
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
-
Jay Paul (@JayPaul1530) reported@sonyabladesbf Instead the of making terrible films like Shazam 2, Aquaman 2, Black Adam, etc.
-
@iamLenoBoss (@LENO_BOSS1) reportedEveryone blamed Shazam, when the real problem was the writing and how the character was handled. 😭🔥 The potential was always there.
-
𝑴𝒓. 𝑾𝒊𝒏𝒂𝒏𝒅 (@Cr7winiano_) reported@bekeestitches I think the problem was never Shazam himself. 😭 The story, writing, and how the character was handled made people overlook how much potential he actually had. ⚡🔥
-
Greentendo (@Nictendo2) reported@Gazungamer Honestly the biggest problem with the later output of the dceu. Stuff like Shazam and TSS would’ve done wonders 5 years earlier
-
222supergamer (@222supergamer) reported@ingricma87 @mjarbo James Gunn wasn't even involved with Shazam or Blue Beetle. They also just weren't movies people were interested in. TSS was a movie during covid that released in both theaters and in HBO so no duh it didn't make money at the box office. Such terrible comparisons. 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
-
Hamzaaaaaaaaaa (@Muhamma99029448) reported@cameron101298 @absolutelyaura0 i feel like the biggest flaw with the king shazam arc is that it was so small and comming off the tale end of the massive son of the demon arc it just feels underwhelming. this break neck pace problem is gonna hurt the absolute books. Superman especially was best taken slow
-
GMVC🏴 (@_GMVC) reported@jaycubedd Wonder Woman, Aquaman and Shazam all were good imo, the rest was terrible man
-
Oliver Fit (@aipusher) reported@tomaldertweets Everyone talks about being early on a platform. Shazam was early on the problem.
-
Jurly (@jurlycat) reportedSmart TVs and smart monitors are getting cheaper partly because manufacturers are turning users into a source of advertising and data revenue. Some use ACR, basically Shazam for your screen. It fingerprints what appears on the display, including content from connected devices, and sends it to a server for identification and tracking. Apparently paying for the screen no longer makes you the customer.
-
Clipsbaba 🪖 (@Clipsbaba21) reported@bekeestitches Yeah the writing tanked it, Shazam himself was never the real problem.
-
ugh (@ughfinewhatever) reported@Max_Evans85 my favourite block is the person who blocked me because I said I was embarrassed to shazam songs in public like I’m sorry how is that anyone else’s problem but mine
-
Will Jenkins (@ImWillJenkins) reportedHave @SHAQ appear as Shazam. Avengers wish Doom to turn into Iron Man. Boom. Two problems solved.
-
Giovanetta Marangoz 🌹 天下大乱形势大好 (@giovanettanyc) reported@meeksthoughtbub The music down here is pretty fire I'm trying to Shazam it
-
Captainhavfun (@Captainhavfun) reported@xavizenberserk So you don't like any of those films? I like Peacemaker season 1. Season 2 had a lot of let down moments, and missed opportunities. I'm not saying I think James Gunn is some amazing director. He's ok. I have to like Shazam... I'm partial. Superman was OK. Had many holes.
-
Zolly Becker (@ZollyBBecker) reportedThe problem was Shazam
-
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
-
𝓓𝓸𝓼𝓴𝓲𝓯𝓾𝓷𝓭𝓼💰 (@Iamdoskifunds) reported@bekeestitches Shazam was never the problem. The real issue was that DC never figured out how to properly position him in the bigger universe. The character had the potential—execution and consistency were the problem. ⚡
-
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?

Jack (@jackcoder0) reported4. Visual Intelligence point at anything, know everything. Press and hold the Camera Control button. Point your camera at anything. A plant: species identification and care instructions. A restaurant: reviews, hours, and menu. A sign in another language: instant translation. A product: price comparison and purchase links. A dog: breed identification. A building: historical information and architecture details. A math equation: solved. A business card: contact saved automatically. A food dish: calorie and nutrition estimate. This is Google Lens + ChatGPT + Shazam in one gesture. Built into the camera. No app needed. No typing. It also works on photos already in your Camera Roll. Open a screenshot. Activate Visual Intelligence. It reads and responds to whatever's in the image. Most owners have never held the Camera Control button for 2 seconds. The entire AI visual engine sits behind a long press nobody tries.
