Too many songs it can't find, it's not worth downloading, it needs a huge update.

When I installed it, it all worked nice as intended, and quick. Now, while identifying songs works nice, I can't play the song right after identifying it. It just loads until it stops loading First I have to goo to Playlist, then to Discoveries, and maybe, not a guaranteed, I'll be able to play the song there. Also sharing the song to browser doesn't open yt. It open sound hound page saying no matches for this id. Overall, this app is annoying.

It doesn't support dual apps. How will it find the music if I don't turn it on at the same time?

I agree with the reviews that complain about the impossibility of recognizing the songs! For me it was the best of all, so much so that I paid to have the full version. For months now to have it working (as it should be, especially when you pay) when I need it I uninstall it and reinstall it or "exit" and log in again. So I can do two searches (only 2) and then go back to "I'm no longer useful for anything" mode. Fix the bugs, if nothing else out of respect for those who paid!
