One of the main iOS 14.2 innovations a service built into the operating system Shazam… The corresponding section appeared in the control center – Apple has integrated the music recognition service in iOS, allowing you to use it without installing the application itself. This is very cool, considering that now it is also possible to recognize even those tracks that accompany the video played on the same device. But not everyone understands how to enable it, since Shazam does not appear automatically, it must be additionally activated manually.

Moreover, this did not necessarily have to be a track that is playing on another device – you can recognize the song even in the video on the same iPhone. For example, you found a cool video, but don’t know the song from it – you turned on Shazam, and you’re done.
Apple купила сервис Shazam в 2017 году. Сумма сделки составила 400 миллионов долларов — это гораздо меньше, чем 1 миллиард долларов, в который сервис оценили во время инвестиционного «раунда» в 2015 году.
Shazam has been integrated with Siri since iOS 8, and it was thanks to it that you could ask what song is playing and get a quick response from the voice assistant.
By getting its hands on music recognition technology, Apple has been able to attract new subscribers that are not necessarily associated with Shazam. The service’s developments allow the company to integrate artificial intelligence into Apple Music, which will intelligently approach the issue of creating playlists that are interesting to users.

It doesn’t matter where you bought your watch – to take measurements, you need to follow instructions at this linkby activating the innovation, and then follow the instructions on the screen.
