As part of an ongoing major redesign on mobile, Shazam has just rolled out a new version of its iOS app. Adding to the changes we saw last month, the latest update focuses on offering improved social sharing features, an even better lyrics experience and a more polished UI throughout the application. Users will now see in-depth artist biographies, redesigned album and song pages, as well as the inclusion of videos for songs.

For music lovers on the go, Shazam is an invaluable discovery tool. With the simple press of a button, the app tells you the name and artist of any song currently playing around you. Today Shazam released a new update that throws a fresh coat of paint on the app, along with adding a few nifty new features. The most important updates for the majority of users are the app’s technical tuneups. Audio recognition rates have been improved for more accurate results and battery life has been improved. If you have the app running under Auto mode, battery consumption has been reduced to less than 5 percent an hour.
