Apple has announced a new update, Concerts to its popular music recognition app Shazam. The feature recommends live music events in the user’s area based on their Shazam history and musical interests. If this sounds familiar, you might have seen Spotify’s Live Events Feed which offers a similar service.
The Concerts feature is personalised to each person and recommends both upcoming and ongoing events. This will allow users to save and revisit events, set reminders for upcoming shows, and check out ticket information. Some artists will also offer exclusive content, such as new watch faces and wallpapers, behind-the-scenes videos, tour photos, and show set lists.
The Concerts feature has been made available for iOS users within the ‘My Music’ section in the Shazam app. An Android update is also reportedly coming soon for non-Apple users.
