Decline in quality

Shazam worked well for several years after I downloaded it; for a free app, it was great...😎 However, over the past year+ the quality seems to have plummeted.🤷🏻‍♀️ Recently, shazam hasn’t been able to identify 3 out of every 4 songs I attempt to identify. 🙇🏻‍♀️ The shortcut I have set for shazam on my phone no longer works, either. Admittedly, this may be an issue with my phone & not the app, so, until I sort that out I won’t hold it against shazam. Not certain what needs to happen to expand the archives of identifiable music so that I am actually once again able to name that tune with the help of this app, but, I hope it happens soon. One more item: I deleted the app years after I first downloaded it, and in doing so, I lost the list of every song I’d ever shazammed. 😖 I’d built up quite a collection and loved that I could access all of them in one place - then I deleted the app. The reason I deleted the app, you ask...? I removed it because it failed to name the last 10 or more songs I tried to i.d. I thought deleting & re-installing may help rectify its former stellar ability. Immediately following the tap to confirm deletion, I thought of my song list... 🤦🏻‍♀️ A long, diverse, carefully curated list of songs, gone forever. 🤯🤬😞 I know, operator error, my fault for not backing them up. I do realize that it’s totally irrational to blame shazam for the loss of my list, but, damned if I don’t still feel resentful about it. In closing, despite the complaints about its more recent performance, I am a shazam fan

Launch Services
macOS Launch Services is an API that enables a running app to open other apps or their document files, similar to the Finder or the Dock.Launch Services eliminates apps having to query the Finder to open an app, document, or URL for them. The macOS Finder itself uses Launch Services to perform such tasks. Because the Finder performs no additional processing beyond calling Launch Services, any client using Launch Services for these purposes behaves identically to the Finder.
Core Foundation Framework

Core Graphics
The Core Graphics framework is based on the Quartz advanced drawing engine. It provides low-level, lightweight 2D rendering with unmatched output fidelity. You use this framework to handle path-based drawing, transformations, color management, offscreen rendering, patterns, gradients and shadings, image data management, image creation, and image masking, as well as PDF document creation, display, and parsing.
Quartz Core Framework

Core Location Framework
The Core Location framework lets you determine the current location or heading associated with a device. The framework uses the available hardware to determine the user’s position and heading. You use the classes and protocols in this framework to configure and schedule the delivery of location and heading events. You can also use it to define geographic regions and monitor when the user crosses the boundaries of those regions. In iOS, you can also define a region around a Bluetooth beacon.
UIKit
The UIKit framework (UIKit.framework) provides the crucial infrastructure needed to construct and manage iOS apps.
