Use Shazam with Apple Music, Spotify and more

Connect Shazam to Apple Music or another music streaming service to listen to songs you’ve identified.

After you've identified a song, tap the play button next to a Shazam to listen to a preview. To listen to the whole song, connect Shazam to Apple Music or another music streaming service that Shazam supports.

Connect to Apple Music

Tap the Apple Music button near a Shazam to listen to that song in Apple Music. If you're an Apple Music subscriber, songs that you've Shazamed can be automatically added to a playlist called My Shazam Tracks in the Music app. On iPhone or iPad, swipe up to My Music from the main Shazam screen, tap the Settings button , then turn on "Sync Shazams to Apple Music."

You can also add a Shazam to another Apple Music playlist without leaving the Shazam app. Just tap "Add To" next to a Shazam, then tap the playlist. If you’re not already a subscriber, learn how to join Apple Music.

If you can’t add songs to a playlist, make sure you sync your music library with Apple Music.

  1. On iPhone or iPad, swipe up to My Music from the main Shazam screen. On Android, swipe left to the Library from the main Shazam screen.
  2. Tap the Settings button , then tap Connect next to Spotify.
  3. Tap Agree in Spotify. To automatically sync your Shazams to a “My Shazam Tracks” playlist in Spotify, tap OK.

Once you've connected Shazam to your Spotify account, you can listen to your Shazams:

  • To listen to the whole song in Spotify, tap Spotify next to a Shazam.
  • Listen to Shazams in the My Shazam Tracks playlist in the Spotify app.

If you initially chose not to sync your Shazams to Spotify, you can choose to at any time in Shazam Settings.
