RIYADH — Saudi Arabia’s General Entertainment Authority has launched an app that enables music lovers to sing along with their favorite Arab singers to produce a karaoke or duo performance. Developed by a group of creative Saudi youth, the “Shaadoow” app includes 32 singers from all over the Arab world and allows fans to use the most recent technologies to select their favorite singer/song and then produce a karaoke or duo performance. They can also record with different audio-visual effects. Users can also enjoy other features, such as lyrics subtitles, a wide variety of singers/songs, and music in sync with their vocal range. Additionally, this positive artistic experience is sharable with friends on social media. A group of creative Saudis came up with the idea to compete with successful international platforms and social media apps, but they used a new and unprecedented idea realized by a team of audio-visual experts in accordance with the latest international standards. “Shaadoow” is available to download on smartphones through the App Store or Google Play via shaadoow.com/app.
