TikTok now has its version of Shazam. Music on TikTok has blown up in recent years with songs going viral on the app more than ever. It has led to a lot of people asking in comments “Track ID?” Well, TikTok has addressed that by adding a hum or sing search feature to find your favorite song you don’t know the name of.
The tool will be called “Sound Search” allowing users to identify songs by singing, humming, or playing them. TikTok’s Sound Search is still in the testing phase and is available to a limited number of users in specific regions. The new tool could help users find and better understand current trends with TikTok’s song-based trends that change rapidly.
To access Sound Search, users can tap the microphone icon in the TikTok search bar and select the corresponding option. Similar to YouTube Music’s song detection feature, Sound Search enables users to input a melody and receive song suggestions.
However, TikTok’s tool goes a step further by directly linking identified songs to relevant TikTok videos. It remains unclear when TikTok plans to make Sound Search available to all users.
