"As a manager, the geographic data is invaluable. It showed us a huge fan base in Chicago we didn't even know existed, which helped us plan our tour more effectively. Tracking Shazam counts in specific cities gives us a massive edge in targeting our promo budget."

Many find the app's core functionality to be severely limited, describing it as "pointless" or "useless" when compared to the desktop version or competitor apps, especially concerning artist profile management and the inability to correct inaccurate information. While some users appreciate the feature for tracking radio data where their songs are played, this positive aspect is largely overshadowed by pervasive performance and data-related complaints.
