To use the feature, users simply need to open the Shazam app, tap the Shazam button, and return to the desired third-party app to identify the playing track. Shazam utilizes the smartphone's microphone to listen to the song, even while other apps are running. The identified songs can then be added directly to Apple Music playlists for future reference.

iPhone users can conveniently access this feature through the Control Center by swiping down from the upper right corner of the screen and tapping the song recognition icon.
