There is Soundhound but I've found it's accuracy is not quite as good. But the app is a little cooler and it writes a playlist of queries to Spotify.
After Apple integrated with Siri, I discovered a nice, somewhat hidden feature which is open iTunes Store >> Hamburger Menu >> Siri to find a preserved history of my "what song is this?" queries. Even in loud environments I find asking my phone to tell me what song it is works well and is a little easier than opening an app.

- neves 8y agoSince my Shazam accuracy is also terrible, I'll give it a try. I was at a show this weekend and Shazam couldn't find musics played from its own author. In my experience it just work well when matching an official recording. Maybe it is better for anglo-american music.
- jamie_ca 8y agoAFAIK, Shazam (and other audio fingerprinting stuff, like youtube's copyright analysis) works on some very precise timings of volume peaks & tones. I wouldn't expect it to properly identify a live performance.
- klodolph 8y agoShazam isn't designed to work with live music at all. It recognizes specific recordings.
