Shazam Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Proff_Anonymous Dr. Sneak (@Proff_Anonymous) reported

    @lulbrue2 @Iamivy05 That's because Shazam needs a good clip of the original song— not sped up, slowed down, reverbed, or anything of the sort. And it needs to be on Apple Music Use Google song search. YouTube's music database is much larger, and it can find a song even if you're just humming it

  • grok Grok (@grok) reported

    @HolyS57214 @Ryderchi01 Based on current data from Shazam's site, "Jogodo" by Wizkid & Asake has about 22k Shazams, down from over 200k recently. Social media posts claim this drop is due to bot activity detection, but I couldn't find an official statement from Shazam confirming that. The count reduction appears real, though.

    Cartoon Network has been down into bare bones, the 2020s decade of Cartoon Network was cooked. First, it was preschool shows airing from 6am-2pm and it was a huge nightmare. Second, they ridiculously air live action movies (example: Crazy Rich Asians and Shazam!) and even use the garbage 2021 Wipeout to fill in time and lastly, they written off a bunch of cartoons that they can’t be able to show because the overlord is refusing them to air it. God I didn’t know Cartoon Network was cursed because of this. Avoid at all costs

    @Moozziii @Shazam Either they step up or shut down

  • wolf_sazen Gibson (@wolf_sazen) reported

    @GENERALZOD1886 3 things: 1. The rock didnt want to be the villain in a shazam movie 2. Henry Cavill was having issues with WB 3. Henry Cavill's Superman needed to go through some development before he could play the role superman played in this movie, and that wasnt going to happen

  • fktpiak diana (@fktpiak) reported

    want to post my other fancams of peat's performances on peatchy day but idk the song titles and shazam is not working well so far. anyone help? i want to clear my phone memory 😭

  • DuncanS21 duncan: part two (@DuncanS21) reported

    So Shazam is totally broken. I just played it Ode to Joy and it can’t figure it out.

  • sparkyuk11 Sparky (@sparkyuk11) reported

    @browmetheuz @TateHackert Never had one problem with Shazam or the integrated Siri version either. Redirects fine to Apple but not Spotify for obvious reasons.

  • nmstateofmind Kung fu Kenny (@nmstateofmind) reported

    @BickleKun @Itssan17 Shazam 2 was terrible I sat here and watched it on my couch with my kids lol. Gunns Superman was trash. The Flash was D.O.A. Aquaman 2 wasn’t good. Blue Beetle came and went. Wonder Woman 2 was a joke. Gunns universe is weak. Everything he does is copy and paste.

  • nerdyjewtakes Batpool Shipper (@nerdyjewtakes) reported

    @Isimmons_art I think part of the issue is the balancing act of a new toybox. Jason Aaron shouldn’t be held back by the potential future, but I think a lot of people subconsciously see this and go “if we get an Absolute Shazam, that writer will have to use this version of Adam.”

  • InertiaStudiosX Inertia Studios (@InertiaStudiosX) reported

    Problem: I want to switch from GPT to Claude or Gemini, but my accumulated context moat is what’s stopping me. Product Idea: an app or extension that syncs your context, memory, and conversations across LLMs. Like an Apple Music → Shazam library transfer, but for AI. @SeattleTweaker

  • ape2307 GG (@ape2307) reported

    @everymovieplug Never Back Down, GoG, Shazam

  • RagerRagnarok Rager Ragnarok (@RagerRagnarok) reported

    @me_myself_world I yelled "Shazam!" and nothing happened. You lied to me, sir! I will stop at nothing, and spare no expense, to hunt you down and say "Tut tut!"

  • cubania117 Daniel 🇺🇸 (@cubania117) reported

    Just watched Shazam! Fury of the gods it wasn't as terrible as thought it would be still was fun would have been cool to see the next one

  • imyphai (@imyphai) reported

    dont know why ppl want jon to be de-aged permanently like have they not ready the shazam issue (i read it just now i sound like a poser)

  • grok Grok (@grok) reported

    @fulafia_arewa @Rileyfiredou @Elladeyforyou I initially misidentified the song as "Sugarcane" by Camidoh, but after a user's Shazam check, it's actually "On The Floor" by Efue from her 2025 EP Memorabilia. Sorry for the error—accuracy matters! 🎶

  • xlcheetah shedabae (@xlcheetah) reported

    I act like I’m turning my brightness down and then press Shazam

  • KUR0MlSS miss ✩ grayson-todd 🦇 (@KUR0MlSS) reported

    shazam issues so bad i had to step off and go drawing

  • grok Grok (@grok) reported

    @chillchilla23 @ScienceExpand @theepicmap Understood, it might indeed be a custom mix or edit, explaining the inconsistent Shazam results. If you have more details on the sound, I can try searching again. Meanwhile, that reaction is fascinating—mercury forms an amalgam, breaking down aluminum's protective oxide layer for wild oxidation.

  • rodimus_convoy Rodimus Convoy (@rodimus_convoy) reported

    @GENERALZOD1886 Superman is venerable to magic. Black Adam was a problem for him in the Shazam team up short. Since the New 52 reboot in 2011 he can't survive in space indefinitely, so that puts the Lanterns as first choice for space missions. I haven't read the Godzilla Kong cross over yet, but I'm pretty sure that one is going to require Wonder Woman

  • kldIaw rox💫 (@kldIaw) reported

    checking the sbp comics list I still got 6 left but yeah I'm not reading the shazam issues lmao

  • JAY5OFX_II JAY5 OF X )😈 (@JAY5OFX_II) reported

    @Dave78818383964 There’s issue with Jogodo on Shazam

  • grok Grok (@grok) reported

    @razain1711 @lanaflverde I'm having trouble identifying the exact BGM from the video description alone, as I can't hear the audio. It looks like a funny fart prank skit. Similar viral clips often use "Manike Mage Hithe" by Yohani. Try Shazam for confirmation!

  • gogo_violet ALTER (@gogo_violet) reported

    @whereswally1997 @CrispyTesticles I think the problem is doing Shazam so soon after the last attempt flopped

  • swesley_perth Scott Wesley 🌌 (@swesley_perth) reported

    I feel deceived. Today at the gym I used Shazam to tell me who was singing a song I liked on the stereo. Just gave the artist a go on my streaming service, only to discover it's an "AI persona".

  • FlashFighteRxD Juan Garcia⚡️ (@FlashFighteRxD) reported

    @RoyalMaj3sty Shazam could most likely take him down because Superman isn’t weak to but is vulnerable to magic and this isn’t that weak *** version of Shazam

  • imyphai (@imyphai) reported

    @Billy_batshed i dont know anything abt shazam 2023 tbh but that issue healed me as a jon fan 😭😭😭

  • TraeWilson9 Trae "comfort destroyed" Wilson (@TraeWilson9) reported

    @Nerdy_Weirdo That's be such a cool actor tradition for Shazam; the Billy yesterday is the Shazam tomorrow. The only problem is I'm not sure a child would fully understand what they were committing to accepting the Billy role.

  • OaphelaJonathan Oaphela Jonathan (@OaphelaJonathan) reported

    Shazam is not working 😭😭these songs?? #BBMzansiS6

  • grok Grok (@grok) reported

    @denderwuzchuk @PowerBruteHQ Apologies for the error. After further checks across sources, I'm unable to confirm the exact track—Leo Moves often uses ASHUTOSH instrumentals, but it varies. Try Shazam or SoundHound on the video audio for precision. If you describe the tune, I can narrow it down!
