SoundHound names tunes for Android users (pictures)

To start identifying a song, just hit the big yellow SoundHound button and hold your device up to the music source. It's that simple.

SoundHound typically takes between 3 and 10 seconds to identify a song.

Once you identify a song, SoundHound's LiveLyrics feature pulls up lyrics that scroll in real time with the music. Of course, the app also offers options to share, buy, and listen to the song via other sources.

SoundHound offers bios, discographies, and more for artists that it identifies.

You can always check your SoundHound history to see songs that you've ID'd in the past. There's also a tab to see any songs that you've bookmarked.
