I was confused too at first. Installed the app and pressed the microphone icon, but didn’t notice the button. Was it even there?
But then after I’d uninstalled the app I went back and reread the article and saw it say to press microphone and then button for search a song, reinstalled app and then I saw the button there.
Still don’t know if it was there or not the first time around. Maybe I just didn’t see it? Either way, it’s there now. Using iOS btw.
I was curious to see how it would fare because for example when I’ve tried to hum into Shazam or SoundHound in the past they’ve never come close to finding what I was looking for.
But I read in the article that Google is using machine learning and that they have actually trained their hum to search on recording of humming so I got my hopes up.
So in the Google search app I hummed a part of the melody for the song What is Love by Haddaway and... it recognized it! I’m impressed!
