Changed my original 1-star review to 4 stars after reading Developer response. I was originally under the impression that this requires Sign Up and is only a Free Trial of an extension. I thought this for a few reasons:

1) Before using, I read other reviews stating the same thing.

2) When I first tried to use it without an API token, it did not find any songs I tried. I then opened Settings and saw a field for an API token and the words "API token, paste it below" and thought that it must not work without an API token. I signed up for the API token (not knowing the API is a separate product) and after creating an account the dashboard shows that the user is on a 2-week Free Trial. I thought this applied to the extension, not the API.

3) There is a link on the main extension page to a Privacy Policy which differed from the one I read on the API dashboard, which further contributed to my impression that it is a paid extension, as I was unaware they are two separate products.

Now that I have read the Developer response, when I go to Settings, I can clearly see that it reads "If you're subscribed to the AudD® Music recognition API and have an API token, paste it below." I didn't notice this at first and thought the API token was required.

I have tried it and you can indeed use the extension to find songs without any API token. I gave the extension four stars instead of five only because the AHA extension is still better at actual song recognition. Thanks for the response developer! My apologies for assuming the worst in my original review.

Doesn't work on Reddit. It just says "start error: can't find any unpaused media elements." when a video is playing.

Music recognition works pretty well, but I think the widget could use some UI improvements. Like managing individual songs from the history (not just clear the entire list) and also a way to just view the list even if current tab is still playing music. Also synchronizing listening history across different devices would be great.

This addon is magical. It identifies background music/score from youtube videos and matches it *to the exact second of the original music* and then redirects me to a page that has multitude of options where I can hear the original music. Absolutely love this addon!

The extension used to work perfectly, but since I changed computers the extension doesn't recognize anything at all.

Funciona :)

Una mierda de extensión, no reconoce nada.

work thx

This extension only works when it wants to. Would have been a good extension but for some reason it cannot recognize songs half the time. When i still used chrome i used AVA music which performed way better than this. Sadly this is the best option available so i hope they manage to update this extension and make it better.

When it works right it is actually decent. However for the past 6 months it keeps on giving me an API token error even though I have a token (something I shouldn't need to do as AHA on Chrome doesnt need this or a payment plan). It is currently up to date with 3.1.6 but they clearly did not fix this issue like they said they would in response to a separate review. When I revoke the token and get a new one it starts asking for a payment plan. The only way to use this extension is to use temporary emails to get a new API token.

Absolutely awesome!
Works very good, even with very little known songs from techno/hardstyle scene.

Was also able to recognize very new songs!

Felt like it works even better than shazam.

Huge thanks to the creators!


Only small downside, guess there is some problem with fetching the css for the settings page, looks kinda weird.

It's so rare that I download an add-on with a specific function, and then it actually does the specific thing it's meant to do. I wanted to identify an instrumental in a YouTube video. It identified the instrumental in the YouTube video. THANK YOU. That's all I wanted.

I tried it on multiple songs, but none of them were right. It recognized the same music whereas the songs were different (similar style but still quite different).

Great at finding most songs but hard to find more obscure ones, expand your song db pls
