## What is EarWorm?

EarWorm turns your favorite songs into a game you play right inside Messages.

Pick a track, and EarWorm sends your friend a short audio clip challenge. They have to name the song before they run out of guesses. Every wrong guess or skip unlocks a longer piece of the clip, so the pressure builds with every attempt.

Once your friend finishes, their result gets sent right back to you in the thread
