Free iPhone apps compatible with iPad, and iPod Touch worth downloading today start with a new update to the free iPhone app “Soundhound”, as controversy surrounds the arrest of a jogger wearing earbuds, according to a Feb. 22 report in CNET.
“Soundhound” is an awesome free music discovery app that also identifies music. But whether you use “Soundhound” or the competing free app “Shazeem” on your iPhone to discover a song’s title, it’s always a pain to find a way to listen to the track. Well, this free update to “Soundhound” takes care of this problem. How? The update provides a button that connects “Soundhound” to “Spotify”, the free music streaming service. Just tap this button in “Soundhound” and you can listen to your newly discovered song for free, on “Spotify”. You can even create a playlist directly from your “Soundhound” identified music to play on “Spotify”. This “Soundhound” update is exclusive to the App Store, so Android users will have to wait for it to appear in Google Play.
Lots of iPhone users employ earbuds to listen to music or audiobooks while they are walking or jogging—and some of them might jaywalk from time to time. Ahem. Well, police in Austin, Texas arrested a jogger for jaywalking after she didn’t respond to them. The jogger claims she couldn’t hear what the officers were saying because she was wearing earbuds. Some think the arrest very aggressive. You can judge for yourself in the video captured by a customer in the Starbusks across the street.
