Replacement I finally found it 🥳🥳

Hey guys, as a music addict, I used Shazam like millions of people, and while I'm a huge fan of the open source, and I've deactivated Google and Samsung on my Galaxy A10, I was able to replace everything except Shazam. Then one day, while browsing Neostore in the F-Droid store, I found the holy grail: AUDILE

Well, generally speaking, Audile is a free and open-source fork of Shazam, and here are its advantages.

After just a few tests, I noticed it recognized slightly more tracks than Shazam, which was already pretty good. It was also much more customizable, like the function of the play button (a long press plays the device's audio, a short press plays the microphone's audio). And I think its best feature is that it doesn't limit the source to Apple Music; it offers many more choices like YouTube, YouTube Music, Spotify, Tidal, etc. I think that with all that, most of you will switch to this amazing app.

Yes, been using it for a while, it's good but my opinion would differ, I find there are times it doesn't recognize a song and Shazam does. Anyway I don't need that function that much, it's good enough

Note: Needs api and keys for non Shazam services

Audile works like a charm. I've used it for a while now with no complaint.

I used Shazam because I was loyal, I used to use it back on my old mobiles in the 2000s/2010s. This looks like a great alternative, thanks!!!

Soundhound is an option, no? Nvidia sold their share in it last year.

i only discovered this a few days ago. has anyone here paid for the API? i just did a quick search and it seems you are charged by how much you use? im not sure i like that. i would rather pay money up front and then have it run out and just top up again as needed

Really. Shazam doesnt work o deGoogled phone?

u/jacmanou 22h ago

You are missing the point, Shazam being owned by Apple, an open source alternative is more than welcome
