The latest version of Shazam takes advantage of iOS 14's widget experience. Users can now add a small, medium or large Shazam widget to the home screen to access recently discovered songs.

Tapping on a discovered song opens Shazam to that title's informational page. In addition, the widget acts as a launchpad for app functionality, with users able to conduct a Shazam by tapping the app's icon in the top right corner.

Shazam most recently received an update in December that delivered a major user interface overhaul and added improved syncing and notifications for missed and offline Shazams. At the same time, Apple released a web version of the tool available through Shazam.com.

Apple acquired Shazam in 2017 for a rumored $400 million and has since integrated the song identification service into Siri, Apple Music and iOS. Most recently, Apple added Shazam to Control Center in iOS 14.2, offering quick access to the tool from anywhere in the operating system.

Following a major interface overhaul in December last year, Apple today updated the Shazam app for iPhone and iPad with home screen widgets for iOS 14. The new widgets let users have quick access to the latest songs identified by the app.

Version 14.4 of the Shazam app for iOS, which was released today on the App Store, adds three home screen widgets for iPhone and iPad users. All three widgets show the songs you recently discovered with Shazam, as mentioned in the release notes.

While the smaller widget shows only the last song found through the Shazam app, the medium and large widgets can show up to four discovered songs. By tapping the widget, the user is redirected to a page with more details about the song, which includes other songs by the same artist, videoclips, and integration with Apple Music.

Apple has been improving Shazam since the company acquired the platform in 2017 for $400 million. After integrating the music recognition service in the Control Center of the iPhone and iPad with iOS 14.2, Apple launched a new web version of Shazam with song identification for the first time.

Shazam is available for free on the App Store. Although the app works with iOS 12 or later, iOS 14 is required for using the new Home Screen widgets.
