Google today announced a new widget to help Android users identify that song they’re listening to. The Sound Search for Google Play widget will not only identify the song but also conveniently let you purchase it later through Google Play:
Sometimes, you hear a song you like while you’re out and about but don’t want to download it right at that moment. The Sound Search widget syncs across all of your devices, so that song you recognized with your phone in the coffee shop can be quickly purchased from your tablet at home.
The Sound Search for Google Play widget can even be added directly to the lockscreen on devices running Android 4.2. This allows you to recognize a song without having to even unlock your device.
The Sound Search for Google Play widget is currently available only in the U.S for devices running Android 4.0 and up. There is no word on when it will be made available in other countries.
