I have the full version... I could not possibly like this app more than I do. Very awesome. If you're not always trying to figure out songs, not 4 you

Love this app!! Recognizes every song I throw at it and fast! The only thing I wish it had though, is the now playing tab like the iDevices app has.

The BEST APP I've seen. Freakin lyrics n all! Paid to say thank-you to dev! Dinc Absolutely love this! And it just keeps getting better!

Very good app. Since I have had it, it has found every song except one and being able to hum and sing the song yourself is awesome

Excellent app good for naming that tune, and you can hum for a song stuck in your head. Very nice, back this up if you format your phone, only purchas

Amazing. I sat and tried this on about 30 different stations of my car radio. It only missed 2 songs. Both were on the local inspirational stations.

Very fast, very accurate, and hard to fool. Had a great time trying to fool this app with some really obscure music. Works great on my EVO 4G.
Daniel - 2011-03-30
Awesome app. Love looking up lyrics. Works perfectly. Found every song so far, even obscure stuff. DroidX

Faster then shazam and has more features, like lyrics, which is nice. Has improved to the point that I think it's now better than shazam.
