I was one of those who wore Shazam on the mobile when nobody knew him and got that people would be freaking out when he pulled him to identify a song. Today I am a vulgar user with a smartphone. But the truth is that Shazam has passed into history, despite having had a series of rivals over the years. However, it seems that Yes is now one that could definitely finish with them, called Sound Seach and is an application developed by Google directly.


It is not new, was launched as Google Ears and had been integrated in all the Nexus of United States carrying Android 4.1 Jelly Bean. Until today had gone out a whole series of ports and too so that we could enjoy it on other devices, but today has reached the Google Play app store, so it can be downloaded by all users who wish to do so. That Yes, it is not really an application, it is a widget screen, so we will have to fix it in one of the desks of our Android.



Music recognition system is really fast, but on Google, they are not stupid. Once they have recognized the song and shows us the title and the cover of the album to which it belongs, then only we have to click on it so that takes us directly to Google Play, where we can buy the title separately or buy the entire disk that is. The goal of Mountain View is obviously attract buyers to your store.

Also, if you have multiple devices linked to the same account and all have the application installed, with which we recognize a song with one of them, he already appears in all others. The intention is that if we go down the street and recognize a song, get home we can buy it with our tablet. Finally, a series of movements that Google has been assembled to provide something useful for us and, incidentally, be able to make some money selling songs.
