It keeps getting muted when using it. I don't hear anything until I refresh it.

I have two complaints with this plugin. The first issue is with respect to the pricing and API configuration- the setup of which is somewhat convoluted for most users, and there is no free tier, similar to Shazam, and it is unclear what benefit the API key brings, or when it is active / actively assisting recognition, or disabled or invalid. My second issue relates to the muting issue, where your browser tab stops producing audio when the recognition button is pressed. This probably has something to do with the way this app handles audio pipelines in the browser, but it is annoying nonetheless. Other than that, this plugin works mostly well, and I appreciate the developers for maintaining it.

Was great but no longer free at twitch, sad.

Works really well, Recently there is a bug where it mutes the tab's audio when searching and has to reload to get back audio. Also can't use because of error:

"Recognition failed: authorization failed: no api_token passed and the limit was reached. Get an api_token from dashboard.audd.io and make sure you're passing the token in the `api_token` parameter."

This worked completely fine, and technically still does, but now whenever I use it completely cuts the audio so i can't hear anything until i disable and reload a tab

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

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.

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

It's simple, works, and doesn't bug the audio. Though, I think they need to up their database a little cause a lot of songs I try to detect don't get any results.

Update: Requires a token, which has a free trial you can only use for a few weeks or so. Disappointing

In my previous review, I gave this extension a 1-star rating due to a bug that required a subscription to perform any actions. However, I believe the issue has since been fixed, so I decided to give this extension another try.

According to the addon description, it claims to "Identify any music from any website in your browser." One might assume that this means you can freely identify any song on any page, considering the extension is open-source and the developer has a donation link on the page. Unfortunately, that assumption is incorrect. It does work for free on YouTube and Twitch (and possibly on some other websites), but on any other site, an active subscription to the service is required. Regrettably, the developer failed to disclose this information in the description.

Regarding YouTube song recognition, I attempted to identify songs on lofi girl music streams (both lofi and synthwave radios), but it failed most of the time. This was surprising, given that it was practically the same use case as shown in the demo video.

For standalone songs, the recognition works fairly well. However, when there is someone speaking over the song, such as in let's play videos or on Twtich streams, its reliability significantly decreases, even for popular music. Based on my limited testing, it was able to identify only 2 out of 10 songs in different attempts. That's quite disappointing.

Slow to recognize when compared to Shazam. No history, much less synchronized to something like last.fm. No automatic music recognition. Doesn't modify the colouration of its graphical interface to adhere to theme of browser nor system. Would like a link on lyrics' page to view the lyrics at their origin rather than within the extension.
