4 ways you can check Shazam song history on iPhone
You probably know what Shazam is. If you don't, it's kind of a virtual assistant that can identify songs for you. For example, you hear a song in a coffee shop and want to know what it's called. You then open the Shazam app, let it listen to it, and it finds it for you. How convenient is that?
All your recognized songs are kept in your account, and you can view them at any time. There are a couple of ways you can check the history of your shazamed song. The obvious one would be in the app itself.
Other ways include looking up history from the Control Center, seeing recently shazamed songs on the Shazam widget, and using Siri (bet you didn't know the last one). You can then add all recognized tracks to your Apple Music playlist.
