troch Samg381, 2 jierren lynUpdate: dropping stars due to bait-and-switch. The app is now paid. Feeling somewhat betrayed having provided feedback and bug reports over the course of several years. Will return to searching for the next shazam alternative. A sad day.
Old review: I have two complaints with this plugin. The first issue is with respect to the pricing and API configuration- the setup of which is somewhat convoluted for most users, and there is no free tier, similar to Shazam, and it is unclear what benefit the API key brings, or when it is active / actively assisting recognition, or disabled or invalid. My second issue relates to the muting issue, where your browser tab stops producing audio when the recognition button is pressed. This probably has something to do with the way this app handles audio pipelines in the browser, but it is annoying nonetheless. Other than that, this plugin works mostly well, and I appreciate the developers for maintaining it.

ien jier lyn pleatstYou don't need to have an API token to use the extension. Apologies if the interface is not clear on that. The field to provide an API token is only for people who otherwise have an API account and, e.g., want to use the extension for work purposes. If you don't have one, you can leave the field empty and use the extension completely for free, with the temporary exception of a small number of websites where there’s a lot of abuse (on the order of $200/300 per month in server costs).
Really sorry about the experience with audio recording! We’ve now fixed the issues & bugs related to it!
Starting with version 3.2.4 (it's live now! you can update the extension in Extensions -> Settings -> Check for Updates), audio should not be muted on any websites, and audio recording should work perfectly almost everywhere, including basically all video players.
(Thanks for taking the time to write the review! It marginally prompted us to actually spend effort figuring out the issue, getting help from the community, and finally fixing it. That took hundreds of lines of fairly complicated code.)

- Wurdearring: 1 fan 5troch Unamelable, 3 moannen lynWas nice free music identifier for firefox. Now requires registration with gmail only (don't allow any other emails).
Datagrabbing trash like that can burn in hell.
I would put 3 stars because sometimes it works-sometimes isn't.
Right now i can't recommend it because now its just another privacy violation service.
USE LIBREZAM INSTEAD! - Wurdearring: 1 fan 5troch SoupRice, 3 moannen lyn
- Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch user_7, 3 moannen lynExcellent extension, it met my needs perfectly. It can identify songs directly from YouTube with precision, including some that are not available on streaming platforms.
- Wurdearring: 1 fan 5troch Firefox-brûker 19778199, 5 moannen lynWorks fine at first then requires a subscription to continue working - AVOID!!
I found Librezam is an alternative that doesn't need a subscription to function. - Wurdearring: 4 fan 5troch Anon007, 5 moannen lyn
- Wurdearring: 1 fan 5troch DeineMudda69, 6 moannen lynOnly mediocre at recognizing songs. Eventually asks me for an "API token" because my limit was reached. GTFO.
- Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch OKRA, 6 moannen lynIt works majority of the imes and I install it in every browser I use. No idea why it has only 3 stars, deserves atleast 4 imo.
edit: oh apparently it bugged out a few months back so thats why it has 3 stars. In its current state its a 5 star for me. - Wurdearring: 1 fan 5troch Soup, 6 moannen lynHas not been able to recognize a single song I tried identifying.
- Wurdearring: 1 fan 5troch aydro, 7 moannen lynare you kidding me, you now have to PAY just to use the extension?
get out of my extensions list.Antwurd ûntwikkeler
7 moannen lyn pleatstA bug, not an intended behavior. We're investigating (thx to a user who reported this on GitHub issues).
Could you please share your browser version? - Wurdearring: 1 fan 5troch jjbJXNjkxb, 8 moannen lynliterally told me to pay up to be able to recognize a song off a single local file on my pc

- Wurdearring: 1 fan 5troch Alex Reynard, 9 moannen lynAsking for money for new features? Fine. Changing the main feature of the software, that was previously free, to now being paid-access-only? No. You're gone.
- Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch cobalt, 9 moannen lynWorks really well with livestreams, its impressive really.
