Can SoundHound work if I whistle instead of singing or humming?
SoundHound has been designed to work even when you whistle! But please note that the microphones on most mobile devices, including iPhones and Android phones, are very sensitive to whistling. To make sure your whistled search gets the best results, try not to whistle too loud or too close to the microphone: hold the phone at arm’s length while whistling, and whistle at only a moderate volume so that the SoundHound volume bar does not fill up all the way. On searches of music you sing, hum or hear playing, it’s OK to have higher volume, because the devices’ mics are not as sensitive to those sounds.
