High profile apps are getting iOS 7 updates left, right, and center, with one of the latest being Shazam. Now, users of the music-tagging iOS app can enjoy a brand new redesign in time for iOS 7, along with improved sharing and more.
All three of Shazam's iOS applications, Shazam, Shazam Encore, and (Shazam) Red, have received the update, which is listed as version 7.0.0 of the popular apps. Here's a complete list of changes, as outlined in the applications' release notes:
Shazam's new design is definitely more in line with iOS 7, and offers a minimalistic, clean-looking interface when users tag music and when results are shown. Most of the iOS app updates we've been seeing over the course of the last day or so have been adding support for iOS 7. In a number of cases, developers have included new designs to bring their applications in line with the forthcoming mobile OS. As a reminder, iOS 7 is set to reach iDevices later today. We'll let you know once the software update becomes available. In the meantime, Shazam, Shazam Encore, and (Shazam) Red can be downloaded in the App Store now, with the latter two apps carrying a price tag of $6.99. All three are optimized for the iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch.
