Earworm

What Earworm is

Earworm identifies songs from a tune you hum, sing, or whistle, even when the original track is not playing and you do not know the lyrics. Tap the orb and provide a clear melody; the maker says a 5–10 second hum is usually enough. The app returns a ranked shortlist of likely songs with previews for you to confirm. Matched songs can be opened in Apple Music or Spotify. The maker says its Apple Watch app can identify a song from the wrist. Earworm is a free TestFlight beta and is not yet on the App Store; an account is required to use it. Short hum recordings, search history, and match feedback are stored with your account on Earworm’s servers until you delete the account. The maker says using recordings to improve matching is optional and can be withdrawn in Settings. It also says it does not sell personal data or use it for third-party advertising or cross-app tracking. Deleting your account in Settings removes the account, recordings, and history from its servers.
