I've recently downloaded the following two apps for my Android smartphone but I haven't used them much yet. Out of the list below, which would you suggest that I keep and which should I delete? I am just trying to reduce redundancy within these similar apps that I have. Thanks!
  • SoundHound
  • Shazam

I've used both, but have stuck with SoundHound. It seems to be more accurate with the types of music I'm trying to find.

And last that I checked, Shazam wouldn't let users get past a certain add that kept popping up.

Soundhound hands down. I've tested both on certain songs and Soundhound is always the one that is more accurate. Also unlike Shazaam, Soundhound lets you hum the song and for the most part it will match it correctly!

Soundhound, I listen to a lot of college radio, and it nails that esoteric tune most of the time.
