App Update: Shazam for iOS updated to version 5.1

The very cool music identification app Shazam has been updated to version 5.1, bringing support for iOS 6 and the iPhone 5.

Having tried some different music, I cant honestly say it find’s the song in a matter of seconds, in some cases, only two or three words had been sung. I was very impressed!
