Abstract

A Method and a device for obtaining information based on an audio input are disclosed. The method is performed at an electronic device having one or more processors and memory. The method includes: while running a social networking application, sending a first audio input to a server hosting the social networking application, wherein the first audio input is captured in response to a triggering event; retrieving, from the server, a product information item associated with a product identified based on the first audio input, wherein the product information item is obtained by comparing at least one audio feature of the first audio input with signature audio features extracted from audio of TV or radio broadcast within a predetermined time span; and displaying the retrieved product information item to a user of the electronic device within the social networking application.
