Snapchat users can now access Shazam with a tap of the camera screen
Music recognition app Shazam has announced today that it has joined up with Snapchat and will now show the name of a song playing nearby when a Snapchat user presses on the Snapchat camera screen. With the new Shazam integration with Snapchat, users will be able to access Shazam content and send information about artists and songs to family and friends as Snaps.
This is the second significant announcement made by Snapchat today. Earlier, we told you that the messaging app will now allow users to group chat with up to 16 people at the same time.
"We are excited to launch our partnership with Snapchat. We’ve integrated Shazam into Snapchat in a way that makes discovering and sharing music both fun and easier than ever."-Rich Riley, CEO, Shazam
Snapchat's parent company Snap is expected to go public in a huge IPO early next year. Snap is trying to throw everything but the kitchen sink into the app in order to drive advertising revenue to it.
