HI all
A sighted friend who owns an IPhone told me of a cool app called sound hound. this app recognizes any music playing and will give info on the song playing. Say for instance the radio is playing and billy jean by michael jackson is playing, the app will display info about the song playing on the IPhone screen. According to my friend this app is free. I've thoroughly searched the applevis app directory but couldn't find the app. Does anybody know this app and uses it? If so, how accessible is this app with voiceover? I've got a lot of music which I want song names for, so this app will come in very handy, but I don't want to waste data on an app that isn't voiceover friendly.
Many thanks for any help

Just so you know, you can ask siri also about what's playing. This feature is Built In to iOs.
And in control center settings, you can add a music recognition button to your control center.
After tapping that, your phone will listen a while and then tell you whats playing. Tapping that notification should open up more info about the track.
For the record, here's the soundhound entry in applevis:
