Searching lyrics names or anything using text never works. it rarely recognizes audio even when it's clear as day and to super popular music. I can hold it with the stereo playing the top 40 and it will be lucky to recognize the any of them. Whatever the glitch is it just doesn't ever work right... shame cause for a decade or so it was my go to for figuring out songs... Now, its just worthless.

I've had this app for years, and when it works, it works great! I can save songs to check out later, it gives me lyrics, and it's just a helpful tool. But the past year or so it hasn't been helpful at all. It can't identify any song I play, no matter how mainstream it is or how clear the audio it's listening to. I don't want to get rid of it since it used to be really good, but some changes need made.

Inconsistent. Over half the time it will say "dusting off the records" for seemingly forever, and never give an indication that it's trying... and its not a connection thing because the ads sure work just fine. The app worked really well until the last several updates. Now it maybe works 1 out of 3 times. I am looking into other apps now.

This app is awesome. It quickly identifies any playing songs and it also finds lyrics for many of them. It also keeps a record of songs so I can remember them later if I want to download them or buy them. (I used to rate this a 5, but lately I've found a lot of music it doesnt recognize so I've downgraded it - it's a shame because it was my goto for YEARS. Everything changes. Hopefully they will fix this issue and I can rate it a 5 again. Nothing would make me happier.)

Used this app for many years. Like all things that start out awesome, they had to go and change something in the programming and now it wont identify much at all. Even songs on the radio that have been played for the last 20 years, it doesn't recognize it. Thanks soundhound for following the trend of screwing up what was once a good app. Ill be switching to something else.

Used to be a great app...I had to start using another app because this one can't find the most basic song anymore. I thought it was a glitch or something, but it's been going on for probably a year now. No update available at this time, so I'm deleting the app and using Shazam, which also hasn't been as stellar as it used to be. Last time I used Google with the microphone.
