I love midomi app. The accuracy has been 100% for me. I was in LA and was listening to KTNQ and midomi found all the songs it was playing.

My son used the say/sing part and it also found the singer anf songs. The singing part was a lot of fun. I dont think shazam has that option.

Great job midomi. We love you.

Cool idea for an app, but the only problem is that this thing is so inacurate, its really hard to justify whipping out my iPhone to use it.

I agree w/Jason, accuracy is low for this app. I compared Midomi side by side with Shazam on a friends iPhone. Shazam went 7/7 while Midomi was 2/7. I like Midomi’s interface and results screen better, but accuracy wins out every time.

How on earth did you get 70% accuracy? I’ve been using this app a lot over the last few days, testing how accurate it can be, and I’ve gotten dismal results — somewhere around 30% accuracy if that. Even the feature that should be the most reliable, “grab”, is inaccurate more often than not. The “sing” mode has only been able to identify the song once.

While the idea is great, I have had terrible luck with it actually functioning the way it’s supposed to. I’ll stick with Shazam for now, which has yet to produce a wrong result for me at all.

Now this app can be useful for people who don’t know the song they are listening to. I think it’s pretty cool, http://blabtech.blogspot.com

I stumbled across this one myself last night; the family had a couple of hours of fun playing "Don't Forget the Melody". (For some imcomprehensible reason, it seems much more accurate when my wife is singing than when I am.)

It did not crash once for the two or three hours I was running it, which I actually found quite surprising given what my iPhone has become since upgrading to the 2.0 firmware.
