Shazam: Song Lyrics Now Included Live - All Feature Info

Shazam is installed on millions of phones and is quickly tapped to identify a song. Directly afterwards, you can now even sing along, as a song lyrics function has been introduced.

Perfect timing: Shazam song lyrics can be seen live to the current song.

Shazam's song lyrics feature goes by the name "Lyric Syncing" and was introduced in 2018. However, many users still don't know that it even exists.

Shazam: Enable song lyrics live during playback

The Shazam song lyrics work live during playback. It's easy to do:

1. Let Shazam identify a song that's playing.
2. You'll then see the name of the song as usual - but in addition, there's an option called "Song Lyrics."

Click this and the lyrics will be displayed appropriately, since Shazam knows where the song is at the moment thanks to live detection. This is more convenient than searching for the lyrics separately online, as the timing is then still up to you.
