Music app recommendation Shazam, the ultimate song finder, added Concerts feature
The number of users of the music discovery app Shazam has increased significantly in Korea. With K-Pop music from BTS and Fifty Fifty rising to the global charts, the number of Korean app users has grown significantly thanks to this influence.
The first time I encountered Shazam was to find out the title and artist of music played in a cafe, and I still use it usefully when searching for music played on the radio. It is used in conjunction with Apple Music, and currently Shazam has over 300 million monthly active users worldwide.
In particular, in 2023, not only Korea but also African countries grew the fastest, and 'Calm Down' by the familiar Afro beat musician Rema took first place on the Top 100 2023: Shazam chart. It stayed at the top for quite a long time.
The response to K-Pop music is also good, and FIFTY FIFTY ranked 3rd on the Shazam Global Chart, becoming the first K-Pop artist other than BTS or BTS members to rank high on the chart.
Recently, in addition to the music discovery feature, a Concerts feature was added that recommends personalized events to music fans based on their Shazam history and popular nearby events. We support you to find concerts held in your area, and you can search for various music events by location, date, artist, etc.
You can also check out the music that was most searched for as Shazam this year on Apple Music. Shazam is something that cannot be left out when recommending a proper music app. It would be nice to have a good time with warm and happy music at the end of the year.
