Shazam In Control Center Doesn’t Sync to App

I have Shazam connected to Spotify. I app Shazam when i click to recognise track/song it automatically added into Shazam library and Spotify playlist synced with Shazam.

But when i am using the new button Shazam in control center is great for quickly recognising in the background but it doesn’t add the song to the Shazam app, thusly not syncing to Spotify.

I see only notification and only after when i click on notification it appears in Shazam ... it is very time-wasting.

is any help here?

Another workaround is to ditch the Control Center shortcut and use the original Shazam app instead.

It still has the ability to sync with Spotify. Just put it on one of your home screens.

I for one had no idea there was no feature parity between the two, and have been at a loss for half a year as to why it wouldn’t sync like the app always did.

Has anyone figured this out? I have a road trip tomorrow and have been using music recognition for a few weeks only to find out the songs aren't appearing in Shazam or Spotify. Sucks....

Was there ever a solution for this besides the long press? This worked prior to me updating to v15. I’ve tried uninstalling the Shazam app and reinstalling but no luck.

Awesome find. By any chance do you have Shazam on an iWatch and it’s the app there is just not loading? I’ve tried everything :/ frustrating.

Same problem and no fix yet. It's really annoying. This makes the control centre Shazam shortcut as good as useless..
