SoundHound Releases Free Version of Android App



Sound search company SoundHound has announced the availability of a new, free version of their Android application. The app app provides five free music searches per month in addition to unlimited voice, text, and lyrics searches. The premium version will now be called SoundHound Infinity and will be available for $4.99 for a limited time. Should you decide to switch to the paid version, all of your search histories make the jump, providing a seamless transition.

Features found in both versions of SoundHound:

  • Blazing fast music recognition. Fans can identify music playing from a speaker (radio, TV, films) in as little as four seconds.
  • Sing & Hum music recognition. If the user can carry a tune, SoundHound can identify it.
  • Voice-directed search. The fan simply speaks a Title or Artist to explore, and get results instantly, including links to video, discography, artist info and more.
  • Instant sharing with integrated and customizable email and Twitter options.
  • Lyrics, videos and other rich content.
  • Buy links for easy purchase of songs and related content, including Amazon MP3
