It doesnt matter what kind of headphones you use.

The patch notes confirm the feature will work through wired and wireless devices alike.

Nor does there appear to be any hardware restrictions either.

You won’t need toown a pair of AirPodsto gain access.

It works with third-party brands.

Additionally, Shazam will continue to work normally even if a pair of headphones are connected.

The feature wont interrupt or prevent the app from listening to songs playing in your immediate vicinity.

We should also mention that the headphone listening upgrade is also available to Android users.

The apps listing page on theGoogle Play Storehas been updated to now include a line mentioning the new functionality.

You should now have an easier time finding out the names of songs you stumble across on social media.

Its unknown if this function will roll out to Shazam on macOS.

We think this version is overdue for an update.

This story will be updated at a later time.
