Xiaomi smartphones have a fantastic yet overlooked aspect – a default song recognition feature that makes third-party apps like Shazam unnecessary. The inbuilt feature not only saves you storage space but also gives you instant and efficient identification of songs directly from your phone’s control panel.
The feature is driven by Google’s song recognition functionality, rendering it highly accurate and responsive. The functionality is not a unique offering of Xiaomi devices, is compatible across most newer smartphones using Android, yet Xiaomi’s approach is remarkable for its seamless integration in system UI.
Setting up this feature is quick and easy, taking just a few minutes:
- Open Xiaomi’s control panel by sliding down from the top of the screen
- Scroll to the bottom and tap “Edit”
- Look for “Song Search” in the App Switchers section
- Add it to your control panel
Once configured, you can identify any playing song in a one-tap process – without having to open various apps or navigate multiple menus. The application is highly speedy and unobtrusive, making it great for when you need to identify a playing song in a public setting.
This native integration is particularly convenient for users who worry about their phone’s storage capacity and would rather use tidy, inbuilt alternatives to installing more programs. The feature also benefits from system updates that happen periodically, keeping it in a stable state over time.
The inclusion of such functionality is one of a trend in smartphone design that sees previously third-party unique capabilities added to operating systems to provide users with more integrated and storage-friendly alternatives.
