Do you think iOS27 will have a capability like Pixel’s: Automatic Background Tracking?
If you own a Google Pixel, you don't even need to use voice commands or trigger an assistant to identify and save music.
Ambient Recognition: The Pixel has a built-in feature called Now Playing. It runs entirely on-device (no internet required) and constantly listens to the ambient audio around you.
Example: When you are streaming with the KEXP app, the phone will automatically identify the track and display the song title/artist right on your lock screen. Every single song the Pixel identifies is saved to a native Now Playing History list. Better yet, you can heart songs directly from your lock screen, and Android gives you an option to automatically sync your "Liked Now Playing" tracks directly into a companion playlist in YouTube Music or Spotify.
Essentially, a Pixel accomplishes third party integration entirely in the background without ever having to say "Hey Google" or leave the KEXP app.
Yes absolutely, like for this exact situation you can set Shazam to track what’s playing and even automate that with a shortcut so it only runs during certain hours, when you connect to certain WiFi networks, or even based on your location.
