Shazam

A new headphone setting in Shazam for Android lets you pick how it listens, so naming a song playing in another app gets easier.

Series, films, live events, games and podcasts now share one Netflix app on Android, with easier navigation and a feed of upcoming clips.

Spotify keeps songs, podcasts and playlists in one library; search suits a known artist, while a saved playlist works better for a mixed commute.

YouTube's Home feed keeps suggesting the next video, so Subscriptions and Library are the better way in when you need one specific tutorial.

VLC splits local video and audio into separate libraries, lets you browse by folder and keeps music playing with controls in the notification area.
