Hey, guys! I'm Bill from GCFLearnFree.org
and today I just want to show you a cool thing you might not know about your smartphone.
Has this ever happened to you?
You're out somewhere and you hear a song you really like, but you have no idea what it is?
Well, your phone may actually be able to tell you.
For example, let's take the song we're listening to right now.
[MUSIC]
Yeah....
Pretty good, right? But I have no idea what it is.
If you have an iPhone,you can actually ask Siri to tell you what song is currently playing.
Hey, Siri.
What song is this?
Siri: "I can name that tune. I think it's 'Shangri-La' by YACHT"
Yeah! Alright, there we go.
Now you can do the same thing with any Android phone that uses Google Now.
You should just be able to say, "OK, Google. What song is this?"
Now, if you don't like searching this way, there are also apps like Shazam and SoundHound
that can tell you the same thing.
Let's take a look at how they work.
To get started, just search for Shazam or SoundHound on your phone's app store.
Once the app is installed, just open it whenever there's a song playing that you want to know more about,
Tap the button...
And,there you go!
OK! That's all we've got!
I hope this video has been helpful, and the next time you're trying to figure out what song is playing
try using your smartphone!
Later!
