After the instant messaging service Viber dropped support for Windows 10, another popular app is dropping its support for Windows devices. Shazam no longer shows up in search results in the Windows Store and the company has now officially confirmed it no longer supports the platform.
Users of the app that have it installed will be able to use the app and access all of the features of it, but once you uninstall it, you won’t be able to get it back again.
Effective Feb. 7, 2017, we are sunsetting Shazam for Windows. However, anyone who previously downloaded and installed Shazam for Windows on their phone can continue to use the app and access all features.
- What happened to Shazam for Windows? It has been discontinued, and as of Feb. 7, 2017, will no longer be supported—nor will it appear in the Microsoft App Store as an available download.
- Can I still use Shazam for Windows on my phone if I previously downloaded it? Yes! Shazam will continue to work until or unless it becomes incompatible with a different version of Microsoft’s operating system.
- Will there be any further updates to Shazam for Windows? No. The current Shazam for Windows is the final version.
