Description
The "Now Playing"-feature on the new Pixel 2 phones is awesome - but what happens if you don't catch a song's name before it vanishes from the lockscreen? It's gone forever :-O!
"Now Playing History" shows a history of all the songs you've listened to, sorted by date. Never miss a song again! You can tap on an entry to listen to the song in your favorite music player (customizable) and mark individual songs as "favorite". The app can optionally fetch additional details (such as the album name and album cover) for each song. An optional "map"-feature allows you to see where you've listened to each song. Explore where you've listened to the songs in your history, go back in time to see the playlist of your favorite night club, or reminisce about your last concert's set list.
The app supports Last.fm scrobbling - you can either scrobble individual songs by long-pressing on them, or automatically scrobble all newly recognized songs.
You're able to search your history of recognized songs and delete songs from your history by long-pressing on them.
You can export your entire history (or just specific songs) to Google Drive / Gmail to share them with friends or to keep a backup for yourself.
**Features**
*- Last.fm scrobbling support *- Fetches additional details (album name, album cover) from Last.fm (optional) *- Search, delete, mark as favorite *- Open songs in your favorite music app (supports 10 music apps) *- Export your history to Google Drive / Gmail *- Map feature (optional) *- Supports 10 system languages *- Dark theme
All data is stored locally on your device. When using the optional "scrobbling" and "album art/details"-feature, we send the song title and artist to the Last.fm-API. If you're using the "map"-feature, the recorded locations never leave your phone. The app does not use Google Analytics or any other tracking or ad libraries.

Logs Now Playing, opens Google Music for me. Simple and direct. Awesome companion app, except for the list of songs resets to the top every time you go back to the app. Frustrating when you have a list one hundred songs long, and you're bouncing between this app and the music player. And any song with a long name gets truncated, making identification difficult.
★★★★★
It does exactly what it claims to do. A really good purchase to fully
utilize a Google Pixel 2 feature for song recognition. No battery drain
when using the app.
★★★★★
This is great! I love all the additions you added including the last.fm scribbling. Great app
★★☆☆☆
Got the pixel today, this app shows 4 songs then nothing. The history built in to the pixel itself showing loads more since the 4. Save your money. Unfortunately just too late for a refund
★★☆☆☆
This app only shows you songs recognized after this app has been installed.
If you listened to a song prior to installing the app you won't be able to
see it.
★★☆☆☆
This app does not even work for me. Ever since I installed it it's said
"History is empty" even though I've been to May concert and a music
festival. It really sucks that I missed out on all those potential new
favorite songs.
