Did you ever had a song stuck in your head but couldn’t remember its name? Your Android device can help find the song name! You can easily find a song by humming or singing it.
What You Need
- An Android device (I’m using a Sony Xperia 1V running Android 14, but this works on most Android devices).
- Google Assistant (pre-installed on most Android devices).
- Gemini AI app (download it from the Google Play Store if you don’t already have it).
Option 1: Find a Song by Humming Using Gemini AI
Gemini AI is a powerful voice assistant that can help you identify songs by listening to your humming or singing. Here’s how to use it:
- Open the Gemini AI App
Launch the Gemini AI app on your Android device. If you don’t have it, download it from the Google Play Store. - Activate Gemini’s Listening Mode
Tap the microphone icon or say, “Hey Gemini or Hey Google, what song is this?” to activate the listening mode. - Hum or Sing the Song
Once Gemini is listening, start humming or singing the song. Try to be as clear as possible but no need to be a great singer. - Wait for the Results
Gemini will analyze your humming or singing and provide a list of possible song matches. Tap to get more details about the song.
Option 2: Find a Song by Humming Using Google Assistant
Google Assistant also has a built-in feature to help you identify songs. How to use it:
- Activate Google Assistant
Swipe up from the bottom corner of your screen or say, “Hey Google,” to activate Google Assistant. - Tap the Music Search Button
Look for the “Search for a song” button (it usually looks like a music note or a waveform). Tap it to start the song recognition process. - Hum or Sing the Song
Start humming or singing the song. Google Assistant will listen and analyze the melody. - Check the Results
After a few seconds, Google Assistant will display a list of possible song matches. Tap to learn more about the song, like its title, artist or album.
Get Better Results
- Hum or sing the most recognizable part of the song or a distinctive melody.
- Make sure you’re in a quiet environment to avoid background noise.
- If the first attempt doesn’t work, try humming the song again or singing a different part of the song.
