For a big, bald genie like Shazam, keeping up with the latest trends can be a struggle. But—crap, this is embarrassing.

Ahem. For a music identification and discovery app like Shazam, it's important to keep up with whatever's currently trending. So the latest version has received a brand new redesign that focuses on just that. The new homescreen places an emphasis on what's popular, what people are listening to in your city, and what your friends consider dope (through Facebook support).

I know, you stopped reading at "redesign." It's the big one, so take a look.

How FAB.

This release brings Spotify integration, so folks with a subscription can listen to full tracks within the app and automatically add Shazams to a Spotify playlist. The service joins Rdio in Shazam's list of partners.

The additions don't stop there. Here's the changelog.

What's new:

Keep up to date with the latest from all the artists you've Shazamed

  • Get instant access to the freshest Shazam charts
  • Find out what your friends have Shazamed - just login to Facebook

The ‘Play All’ button lets you -

  • Listen to full playlists across Shazam - Charts, your Shazams, and Recommended
  • Rate any track with the new player: Like it? Swipe right to save it to My Shazam. Not for you? Swipe left to skip it.
