What Audire is
Audire is a free Android app that identifies music playing nearby and saves recognized songs in a history for later lookup. It uses the APIs of Shazam and AUDD for music identification. The listed v1.2-3 release adds history import and export, an option to identify music when the app launches, and Czech, French, and Italian localization. Audire is available through GitHub Releases, Google Play, and IzzySoft. Its listed package targets Android 16 and requires Android 5.0 or later. The app requests RECORD_AUDIO microphone access, which its listing says is needed to identify music. Google Play's data safety declaration says the app collects no data and shares no data with third parties, and links to a privacy policy hosted on GitHub. The project is governed by the GNU General Public License v3.0. Google Play identifies Hitesh Kumar Saini as the developer and lists [email protected] as the support email. The listed platform is Android, so Audire is for users seeking music recognition and a searchable record of identifications on that platform.
