Description

Hound is instant music search with your voice: speak it, get it.

If you love the famously fast music recognition in the SoundHound App, you're also going to love Hound: now you can just say the name of a song or band you already know to get instant gratification:
♪ Lyrics
♪ Song previews and full length videos
♪ Artist top songs, tour dates, and bios
♪ Instant sharing to Twitter and Facebook

Hound will revolutionize the way you search for music. No need to type or tap, just hound it. It's easy:
- Tap the Hound button.
- Speak immediately and clearly, into your phone’s microphone. You can say a song and artist like "Just the Way You Are by Bruno Mars." Or you can just say a band's name or a song title: "Mumford & Sons" or "Fall for You."
- After speaking, tap the Hound button again.
- (Power user tip for even faster response: you can also press and hold the Hound button, speak, and then release the button.)

Hound can be your "wow" voice search app:
- When your best friend or favorite DJ tells you about a band and you need to know more: just say the band's name to get their tour dates and bio, or say a song's name to grab those lyrics you missed or buy the track.
- When you need instant sharing to Facebook or Twitter: just say the name of a band or song then tap the big "share" button.

Note:
Thank you for downloading and using Hound, a free, ad-supported app. We are growing our database daily and we love feedback. If we don't seem to have a song or artist you're looking for, or if you have any other suggestions, please let us know through email at [email protected]

Recent changes:
v2.9.7
1. Fixed crash at startup for Android 1.6 users
2. Fixed date group headings on the history screen
3. Other minor fixes

Thanks everyone for emailing your helpful feedback.

As usual, if you are having trouble, please don't hesitate to contact our awesome customer support!
