Shazam gets support for Dark Mode on iOS

Shazam is the latest Apple app to get support for the popular Dark Mode feature. This Apple-owned song discovery app will show up in Dark Mode whenever the iPhone's Dark Mode is enabled, which is a feature that arrived with iOS 13. 

The update also lets you long-press on any track in the app to add it to your favourite streaming app or to share it with your friends. If you place two fingers anywhere on a list of tracks and swipe down to multi-select, you can add these to a playlist.
