Stop using Shazam to listen to new songs. Instead, learn how to find all your Shazams on Apple Music.
Have you ever forgotten about a song you liked after finding it through Shazam? Your Shazams are automatically saved, but no one uses the app to listen to music. Instead, why not listen to them on Apple Music, where you already stream your favorite songs?
Your Shazams can also automatically be saved on Apple Music—but first, you have to sync them. And then you need to know where to find and stream them. This article will cover how to sync and listen to your Shazams on Apple Music. Let’s get started.
How to Sync Shazams With Apple Music
Shazam and Apple Music work great together, and you can even use Shazam as a way to get Apple Music for free. Syncing your Shazams with Apple Music makes it easier to play your favorite music on the app. Here’s how to get started:
- Open the Shazam app on your mobile device.
- Swipe up to reveal the Settings icon in the top-left corner of the screen.
- Tap the Settings icon.
- Toggle Sync Shazams to Apple Music on.
Here are more benefits of syncing your Shazams with Apple Music:
- Your Shazams are automatically added to an Apple Music playlist named “My Shazam Tracks.”
- You can quickly add Shazams to other Apple Music playlists by tapping Add to.
- You can use Shazam to play full songs instead of snippets or having to leave the app to play them in full on Apple Music.
Now that your Shazams are synced with Apple Music, you can start streaming them directly on the Apple Music app.
