Sound Hound - Android AND iPhone app

Ok, so I started telling you about Sound Hound, one of my favorite apps on my Android phone.  It's a song recognition app that proves itself very awesome useful time and time again. Just to get you up to speed, when I had my Blackberry Curve, I actually purchased the Shazam app for my phone.  I would find myself listening to the radio or out somewhere listening to a song and want to know who sang it or what was the name of the song.  At times I knew the song from back in the day but couldn't place a group with the song.  See, I wasn't suppose to listen to "mainstream" radio when I was growing up so I really have no idea how I know some of these songs as I was such an obedient child and only listened to what my parents told me to listen to. And now you can stop laughing at the thought of my being an obedient child all of my life :-)

One Free Android App a Day!

Showing some more Android App love today by sharing something I mentioned on facebook the other day.  Amazon now has and Android AppStore.  You can look for apps on the website and have them downloaded to your phone or you can use the downloadable Android AppStore on your handheld device.  When you visit the site on your home computer you'll notice in the upper right corner that you need to download the app to your phone. (must be a registered Amazon member first, but who isn't these days?!)

 

When you enter your email address, open the email on your phone and click the link in the email for the download. Once you've downloaded the app you can then choose whether to look for apps on your phone or on the computer.  If I'm at home I usually look on the computer and then download them to my phone, that way I'm not using precious battery time looking for apps.
