Windows 10 build 10056: Cortana now has a Shazam-like 'find song' feature

\

Let’s face it, sometimes a catchy song plays on the radio and you wish you knew more about it. Thanks to Shazam, and other services, you can easily identify the song with just a click of a button. Now this functionality will be on Windows 10.

\

Considering Windows 10 will be on phones, tablets, and PCs, it makes sense to have this feature within Cortana. While on the go with your Windows 10 tablet, a song comes on the radio, and you want to know who plays it.

\

Simply fire up Cortana from your taskbar, and hit the settings button (hamburger icon) on the top-left and select “Find Song.” Cortana will now identify the song and give you information about it. Cool, right? No need for a third-party app like Shazam anymore.

\

Don’t know how to use Cortana on Windows 10? No sweat, Cortana has a “Help” option. You can learn how to add an appointment to your calendar, create a note, set an alarm, play music, and much more.

\

Windows 10 is definitely shaping up to be a useful operating system by bringing together many of Microsoft’s services. Stay tuned for more Windows 10 coverage!
