I loved capturing songs, instrumental and vocal, from snipits I heard on the radio when I started using SoundHound, I have been using it for years, and I forgave them for not having the older an eclectic material you hear on college radio and I was optimistic that their ability to identify jazz would improve. I misplaced those thoughts - I am looking to other apps now because identification of materials in those two categories has NOT improved.

Deleted my entire song history going back 4 years after logging back into my account because the app logged me out. The song discovery function had started to go downhill anyway, but I thought it would be useful to keep as a backup to Shazam. So much for telling me I had "locked in my discoveries" starting from November 2020. Horrible experience, never again. I've learned my lesson and advise everyone to avoid my mistake in continuing to use this app.

This app used to be absolutely astonishing (years ago). I didn't use it for a long time, but now it seems it can't even identify the simplest tunes. I thought it was my phone, so I waited and upgraded. Didn't use it for about a year after upgrading. Just tried again in a local bar, music and lyrics fairly clear,... all I get is couldn't identify. This used to work in even the loudest bar. Whatever you guys did over the last several years, you may have accomplished something, but not positive.
