There's now an Android version with a more tablet-centric design and tighter Google integration that brings "streamlined sharing to Facebook, Twitter and more," according to the company. It also trumpeted a stronger relationship with digital music service Rdio, which added interactive music mapping to its SoundHounded track-linking abilities, letting you see others across the globe with the same musical tastes and bad memory. You can grab it at Google Play or Amazon's Appstore for Kindle, but if you're as tone deaf as some of us, don't forget the auto-tune.</div><div class="pr_box_button" dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">Hide Press Release</div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;"> <strong>SoundHound Unveils Stunning New Design for Android Tablets, Enhancing Overall Engagement, Content Accessibility and User Experience</strong></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;"> Launch Partner Rdio to Continue as Featured Sponsor for SoundHound's Interactive Map</div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;"> <strong>SANTA CLARA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)</strong>--SoundHound, the revolutionary sound search company with more than 130 million users around the world, today released a completely redesigned version of its mobile application for Android tablets, leveraging Google's new graphical user interface.
