Google used to have song identification via voice search and a widget on all Android phones since Lollipop. Then they killed it for no reason other than to screw over existing users. Widget is still there in Nougat but doesn't do anything.

They recently updated the music search. It's integrated in their assistant, and they have a widget for direct access.

what, the functionality is still there in Nougat, I access it mostly through the assistant which is good enough to detect a song is playing and suggest What is this song? and has great accuracy
