Missing a feature to automatically add songs to Song IQ playlist within Tidal, however. ### 5/5 — Awesome *2026-03-27* Great app for music fans ### 2/5 — Doesn’t open the track on Todal *2025-07-18* I bought this app specifically to connect with Tidal. It recognises the tracks quite well but when clicked on the track, it doesn’t open it on Tidal. Annoying! This should be fixed customers pay for this functionality. ### 4/5 — Good *2025-06-20* App crashes on load with certain settings. But works otherwise ### 5/5 — Great for Tidal *2025-05-20* This is great as a tidal user. Really needed. Thanks ### 5/5 — Very good.… but *2025-04-16* Find this very useful when it works. I use tidal and I’ve found recently that it doesn’t link to tracks in Tidal. If I manually search for them they appear. Wondering if there’s an issue somewhere. Thanks. ### 1/5 — Error? *2025-03-19* When a song is recognised, and I tap on Tidal link, I get this message. “Could not show something based on this link. Either the link is wrong or there is a network problem.” ### 3/5 — We got to take this opportunity *2025-03-09* Hey developers this app has a faster response time than the other competitor thats begins the letter S. Now it’s good cause it works with tidal. Now can we add a couple of competitive features like a widget avail on ios and android (I use both). And lastly when my iphone is paired to my car and I engage the app while listening to music. Mic becomes active and your app picks up my voice like a live hot mic. Whoa and thats weird. The app became unusable while paired to my car. (Ford24truck) ### 5/5 — Very good. *2024-11-17, version 1.10.0* Way quicker than Shazam and works with multiple platforms. ### 5/5 — Great to store song lists *2024-09-05* My favorite feature is being able to see a list of past songs I heard and then quickly open them in Spotify. **Developer response:** Great to hear! ## Frequently asked questions about Song IQ ### How does Song IQ identify songs?
