Shazam, the popular music recognition app, now supports the new Music Haptics feature in iOS 18. Music Haptics, an accessibility tool, lets iPhones vibrate along with the rhythm of the music. This feature enhances the listening experience for Apple Music, Apple Music Classical, and Shazam users.
Shazam’s Latest Accessibility Feature in iOS 18
Music Haptics works with Apple’s Taptic Engine to produce vibrations that match the tempo of songs. This feature adds a tactile element to music, letting users feel the beat as they listen. It’s especially useful for those with hearing impairments, offering an inclusive way to enjoy music.
Seamless Integration of Music Haptics with Apple Music
With this update, Shazam users can feel the beat of identified songs in real time. The vibrations sync perfectly with the music, providing a new level of interaction. Apple Music and Apple Music Classical also support this feature, making it accessible across platforms.
Steps to Enable Music Haptics on Your iPhone
To turn on Music Haptics, go to the Accessibility section in your iPhone’s settings. Under “Hearing,” find the “Music Haptics” option and toggle it on. Once activated, your iPhone will vibrate to match the music, offering a dynamic way to experience songs.
Shazam’s support for Music Haptics in iOS 18 brings a new dimension to listening. It provides a more inclusive experience, especially for users with hearing challenges, by letting them feel the music as well as hear it.
