First, would it be possible to add the ability to sort library (alphabetically , song, artist)? Would be greatly helpful. Lately song results have been completely wrong. *Update: Thank you and I appreciate the new explore options for found Shazams. Still would like to be able to explore by song, to help organize list in case of duplicates, etc.

Please stop turning up results that are from a compilation album unless the song is a remix, because I'd like to know when it originally came out. This app is great! It gets songs fast and most times correct. Although sometimes they do get them totally wrong or unrelated, search it again and it will most likely get the right title, occasionally the wrong group though. What bugs me is that you can report a "wrong song" but can't specify what's wrong with it.

this app is amazing! it's extremely helpful when I'm trying to find the name of a song that I can't remember, or am hearing a new one for the first time on an ad, movie, out in public, whatever! the only complaint I have is it won't pick up on the song (through your phone) when you're wearing earbuds. besides that, great app! edit: it worked for a while after I switched to a samsung s22 ultra.. but it quit again
