SANTA CLARA, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–SoundHound Inc., the revolutionary sound search company, today announced cloud support for its SoundHound mobile application. SoundHound fans around the world can now access their music search and discovery libraries across multiple devices and restore their entire music library when installing SoundHound on a new device.
"So we have built and launched a robust, platform-agnostic system capable of storing user histories and restoring them to a new device. Our users have asked for this capability and we are pleased to have delivered it."
"We have 170 million users around the world and many have been using SoundHound for years, building up a significant library of music discoveries and cherished content during that time," said James Hom, Vice President, Products at SoundHound Inc.
