This is great! I recently have had a similar experience with dodge county wisconsin with the social workers for cps. I feel something needs to be done with them. They would much rather take kids (2 baby sisters) and throw them into foster care rather than come home with what they know and what they love but because we are not family we have been pushed aside even though my family and I have been turned away even though we have taken care of the baby’s from age 3 weeks old now 1 1/2 yrs. I’ve now tried to bring to court and get a judge hope and pray that he will see and let the kids come with us. (Court is in 3 weeks) the cps people have even asked the foster trainer to not call me back deliberately. There very against us and unsure why but it’s not fair for the children. They deserve loving household whom has changed our entire household to fit them and accommodate them. I’m disgusted by dodge county wisconsin child services. more

I think it works way better than most other music apps, don't very much like that you have to get the Premium subscription to be able to listen to certain songs, and I have had this bug where once one song ends it won't play the next song in the playlist as it'll be paused, so I either have to open up my phone again to unpause or press a button on my headphones to unpause. But other than those this is a very nice app, and ads aren't thrown in my face constantly either. more
Playlist Organization Nov 27, 2019

By _shannon

SoundCloud is great but there are a lot of glitches with playlists that need to be fixed. Trying to rearrange your songs in your own playlists is a hassle, it takes multiple tries to get the song to permanently move because it often just reverts back to where it was right after you moved it. I always have to close then reopen the open to check and make sure my songs moved to where I wanted them to. Also the icons you can upload for your playlist cover never seem to update unless you actually open up and go into the playlist. This doesn’t seem to be much of an issue on the desktop but on mobile my set display cover is never what I picked, it’s usually automatically always the same picture as the first song in that playlist. This gets really irritating because if I want people to check out my playlists, the first thing they see is the display image and I would rather them see the one I chose than of the picture from someone’s track! Lastly, please incorporate the option to move around your playlists. I have playlists from months ago that are at the way end of my profile and would rather have some of those at the forefront of my profile when you visit it. Really hope you consider ideas to fix these problems. Otherwise great app and I’ll always be a user. more

I have been using SoundCloud for over four years now, and have favored it over any other platform as long as I've had it. It can be tedious to find an obscure song with the search tool, but apart from that, the app is very easy to navigate. Unless you don't mind paying for GO+, I wouldn't recommend this to anyone who listens to a lot of popular music (though this doesn't affect me.) There are a few bugs, but nothing to deduct stars over. Overall, best music streaming platform out there, 5/5. more
Very good but some issues Feb 5, 2018

By datboi667

So I’ve been using this app for the past 3 years and it has been amazing, but somethings I would wish could change as well as some issues I’ve ran into. The first thing is the UI, if I type in a song and I spell it wrong I wish it could put up something close to that and not say “ No Results”. Second thing is that I wish when you went into your saved playlist that you would start at the bottom or the newest song and not the top, but those I can live with so I own an IPhone X, I’m not showing off or anything but this thing has amazing speakers and for some reason when I play a song it crackles and pops which is soooo annoying, I’m an audio geek and I can not listen to a song when it cracks and pops it’s just infuriating. And the last thing is something that I’ve wanted for so long is to be able to post songs from your phone because not all of us own computers, and or laptops but the option to be able to post songs from your phone would be awesome. I hope you bring these ideas in consideration and hopefully are able to fix that bug but anyways I love this app and this is the only way to listen to songs that are posted by non singers or artists. more

I love the app, used it for years, and it's served me real well as a DJ/Artist promoting his work. But what is this strange glitch when I play my 2-3+ hour long mixes where I can't skip ahead nor backwards with my tracks? It's not all of them, just a few of them, but it's real annoying. When I got to pause the mix and play it again, it keeps doing the same thing, I can't see the progress bar, and it just shows 0:00 while the mix is still playing!! Please help. Please fix this. more

Soundcloud has a variety of songs to pick from, not limited by radio music, video game music, or even music at all since there are also podcasts available. It's incredibly easy to navigate and not only that, easy to start producing on! I don't want to make music so I don't personally benefit from it, but it doesn't cost a dime to start producing on Soundcloud and I think that's great. I love that you can listen to your music or podcasts with your screen off, or while in a different tab. more

Very great but some difficulties Aug 5, 2018

By JayZuckerman

Hello I’ve been a SoundCloud user since 2012 but didn’t really get into it until 2013. I would like to say SoundCloud is fantastic. However, I have problems listening to music without it cutting off every 30 seconds. Then once I press play, the same thing keeps happening. Also, as someone that makes music, I hate that there’s a pay wall behind me seeing simple things as who’s listening all over the world. Why should I by SoundCloud Go just to see things like that? The least I’m buying it for is playing music offline, that’s about it. Aside from that, I feel like SoundCloud Go is just not even worth it. I liked using SoundCloud until y’all introduced SoundCloud Go. Which basically limited us from listening to big artist on there giving us 30 seconds of a song just so we can buy that pay wall to listen to a full song we can listen to on other music apps. Not to mention the spotlight on our profiles. Are you seriously going to make us pay for that? That’s like paying $5 just to pin a tweet on Twitter. All I’m saying is I love SoundCloud, but I can’t stand it when they’re trying to beat around the bush just to make us pay for something. more
🤦🏽‍♂️ Apr 9, 2019

By CFC1025

I have been a Soundcloud Go user for several years now. I have no problem paying for this subscription because I love this app, however there are issues which I feel if addressed, could make this app much better. For years I have dealt with tracks out of my likes being deleted or removed. I understand many of these tracks are leaked and therefore are not supposed to be on the app, however this is not the case for all songs that are removed. There is nothing worse than wanting to listen to a song and not being able to find it. Out of my 1,500 + likes I cannot remember the names of all songs I like. I believe if these tracks are deleted it would be very helpful that instead of them simply being taken down, they should still exist in your likes, even if you can’t listen to them. This way, I’m not really losing my music. I’d still be able to find the songs elsewhere, it’s just so frustrating having music disappear. Please address this issue. Also fix your search algorithms!! Neither of these issues seem like they would be difficult to address. Please fix for the sake of users!! Makes me rethink paying my subscription. more

I love this app. But lately, it's been unable to play tracks that I've had saved for years. I've tried updating, clearing everything, and it hasn't helped much. I use to think it was the signal, but even on my solid wifi it's been slacking to play tracks (including go+). Fingers crossed y'all figure it out so I can groove uninterrupted 🤞🤙 more

This app is really good but whenever I try to use other apps at the same time my music cuts off. Please fix this I've seen so many other people mention this and you haven't even fixed it yet. It's very annoying and makes the SoundCloud experience not enjoyable at all. A year later and this has not changed at all. Please fix this- its very stressful. more
Never try to fix something that isn’t broken Sep 16, 2022

By Kakashi Hatake02

Never try to fix something that isn't broken. Ever since the big change this app has been a terrible, very irritating experience. First they remove the ability to sort songs and now I just started dealing with the worst bug i've ever encountered in probably anything, for whatever reason, all of a sudden when I try to add a song to a playlist all of my already existing ones disappear, but when I make a new playlist they all return, it's like part of the app thinks I don't have any playlists yet and part of the app knows I in fact do, I would not be surprised if it actually deletes them all. (When I delete the playlist I just made my already existing ones are actually deleted temporarily, I have to close the app at least once when this happens) They literally just updated this app, how does it have more and bigger bugs??? it seems like every update is ruining the app more and more now. I have countless hours spent on this app adding songs, if a developer is reading this, PLEASE don't take my progress away, and if a new user is reading this, I highly recommend finding a different app, this one is not worth the time. If I could find a better app I would use that one more
Unfortunately, just not worth it anymore. Sep 21, 2021

By toneytone24

A couple years ago I would’ve given 10/5 stars if I could. But nowadays, there’s so many advertisements that it makes listening not even worth it. I completely understand the reason for advertisements & for a long time, I could put up with them. However, I just used SoundCloud for the first time in maybe a year. THERE IS 2 ADS BETWEEN EACH TRACK. Back when I used to use SoundCloud for all my music, I’d have to put up with an occasional ad or two every 4-6 songs. But now it’s simply unbearable. I’m not exaggerating when I say I just logged onto SoundCloud & the first 4 tracks I played, I got 2 ads in between each. It was frustrating after the 2. Annoying after the 3rd. Infuriating after the 4th & I didn’t stick around for the 5th. I’ve been using audiomack as of late. I’d recommend that to anyone who doesn’t have music specifically on SoundCloud. I know that’s the reason I used SoundCloud so much. A lot of the underground artists would start on SoundCloud and their music would then find its way to other platforms. But I just can’t do the ads anymore. If you suggest paying for SoundCloud, why would I? The search engine all the way to the user experience is just terrible. Anyway, just my opinion. Happy listening, all! more
App terrible interface but desktop great! Make them the same! Sep 17, 2018

By Music computer guy works great

The app is so terrible compared to the desktop version. The searches never come up the they do on desktop, I never see my page with my spotlight 5 tracks when I open it up, i have to scroll forever just to get to what is normally right there on my desktop.... the app gets ZERO. As an artist and some one and I are talking about music and who I like and what I sound like I’d like to be able to easily show them or find the name of the musician I was listening too earlier that day etc. I have more specific complaints but these are the ones that come to mind. The ‘usability’ and ease of interface is just terrible on the app version. I gave an 8 or something for the recommendation of SoundCloud to people but , it would have been a 10 if the stupid interface on the app wasn’t so clunky. The two interfaces (desk and app) should look and work essentially the same. A girl told me it was impossible for her to figure out how to repost my song on the app version. she gave up in frustration. In some way that reflects on me and I lost a precious repost. Also I’d like to be able to link my two accounts , even if it is just slightly more a month to have both on premium. That last note is not about the app obviously. Thanks for listening. more

By Gyromatical

Around last year SoundCloud started blocking mobile browsers from listening to any music. If you go to the site you'll see there's a transparent black graphic across the screen with nothing but a button to try to get you to download their app. So basically they're using your music as a way to corral people into making them money by downloading their app. They're limiting your exposure for their benefit. Find somewhere else instead because they clearly don't care about you. more
Lots of minor/medium problems May 19, 2020

By RealDougtheDonkey

SoundCloud is fine. I like that it’s free. There are some songs, like Elise by The Greeting Committee, that used to be free but now require a premium for you to listen to. I’d prefer if more were free, but beggars can’t be choosers. Anyways, I don’t even know if that decision is up to SoundCloud or the individual creators. There are some more glaring problems, though. For one, when I try to scroll down quickly, the app gets really laggy, shows me one frame a second, and scrolls down incredibly slow. It’s infuriating when I’m trying to go low down in my likes songs. Another issue is finding when a song was posted or looking at its description. Both of these are impossible on the SoundCloud app. It seems that the developers only care about the computer version of SoundCloud, when it is much, much better as a mobile app. I have no clue why you would focus on the computer more. It’s not like I can carry a computer in my pocket while it’s connected to headphones or anything. Also, when someone replies to one of my comments I’d like to be notified. This one is just a small suggestion. I usually like the app, but it needs major, major polishing. Please update it! more

A super annoying bug that has been happening for the past couple weeks is where a song will end, and it'll try and play an ad, but then it says that something went wrong in the app, and pauses the next song at the very beginning. So it makes me manually press play every single time a new song starts. more
Nov 23, 2022

By Ian Healey

SoundCloud is generally great, but nothing more frustrating than refusing to stream a set (for unknown reasons) you've had your eyes on. Icing on cake? After being forced to add it to a playlist to try and download it, the app asks me to give it a rating. Hmm. Typically both a great app and service, disappointed by this behavior. more
Disappointed but holds a place in my heart Mar 27, 2022

By 30852251888

I love SoundCloud coz I’ve been using it literally since elementary school, but it’s gone down hill. First, when you shuffle your playlist, it’s like the app has pre made shuffle lists from your playlist so it plays the same songs in the same order. I noticed this way too much so I tested this by writing down the sounds that would play, then a few days later I’d shuffle my list and it matched. That’s really dumb and annoying and I don’t understand why that’s a feature, if my playlist being shuffled like that is simply by chance then that’s crazy, but if it’s the app then why? Second, ads: before I didn’t mind the ads, but now when using the mobile app if an ad plays while you’re on the app, you’re forced to watch/skip the ad because it won’t play off the app in the background. That was not a thing a few years ago, why SoundCloud ): y’all are the OG and the prime spot for finding new artists and got exclusively unique songs from artists so I’ll always love the app but these reasons have caused me to switch to Apple Music <\3 more

Aloha, Okay, I’m officially intrigued. You are a whole company… I’ve been I college for 5 years for computer science/ software engineering. I had souncloud since I was in 8th grade, the only music app I’d use. 😂 A week ago I duplicated your “app” and made it exactly the same as yours when not published; though don’t get fooled by that sentence; I know my rights, fk add on to what I have just said. I have 4 years of study before college with experience. Why am I a Karen about this little thing? I did it ONLY BECAUSE, the bugs In your system AFTER THE RECENT UPDATE; Such as, searching for a song and my screen crashes. Trying to lick a song my screen freezes and I cannot click anything, trying to scroll through my playlist and it freezes; Not sufficient. SOUNDCLOUD was doing amazing. Comparing yourself to other platforms of music will not make you more successful. I think this is great feedback, for you guys to know, & also fix the bugs if Instagram can do it in a day you can too, it doesn’t take “much” money all the time it takes your brains in the company. Mahalo nui loa. more

SoundCloud will always be my favorite music app, whoever sees this I prefer SoundCloud way more than Spotify in my opinion but sometimes I have some issues like when I go other apps the music cuts off which isn't a big problem.

UI is nice and simple too, highly recommend. more
You need SoundCloud Jun 26, 2020

By hanshensbd

It’s by far the best music and created platform out there yes there are flaws but not many every week you get a personal list of songs recommended for you from your listening history so you can discover more music and Artist you may like unlike other music platforms you can upload to and you can support small artists to help them grow it shows you the other side of music you have been missing out on my taste in music has changed so much for the better because of SoundCloud. You can find it or songs from popular artists today and see how they started you can’t get that anywhere else. It’s so easy to find the music you like and it will help you grown as a person to. I been using it for 1 and a half now and it gets better every day the best thing is it’s free and SoundCloud go is only 5 bucks it’s worth it. So all in all if you want to grown as a listener or start your career use SoundCloud. more
Web is web - App is App Aug 24, 2018

By BobNevans

First and foremost: Thank you Soundcloud, you are brilliant! You have somehow managed to accomplish the impossible: create a global platform for musical expression for artists who otherwise would never be heard AND deliver that to we humans hungry for food-medicine-energy that IS original music without bowing to cavalier monetization. Haven't a clue how you surpassed Apple, Google, Pandora and the rest save only for how amazingly perfect a team you have created. You are the Shaolin Monks of Music. You ARE the revolution. That said, you new App is genius! Crisp, clean, low footprint, perfect maximization of OS and platform utilization and the aesthetic attention to detail is both subtle and sublime. Outstanding accomplishment! As far as the whiners who confuse web with apps and have never coded a line - ignore them; this version of you app reflects the excellence and vision that guides your exquisite and critically necessary presence on earth. Gratitude sisters & brothers - inspired use of tech & heart - love this app! more
Lovin it, but a few issues tho Mar 8, 2018

By Where's my water (free)

I’ve been using SoundCloud for quite while, and, I’ve got to say, this is the very best music application I’ve ever used. However, I spotted some issues with its latest update. I know that you’ve gotten rid of the tab for the music thingy (idk what to call it) and it’s now much easier to access now that it’s on the bottom, but when I tried moving around all of my music, instead it just brang that up and so it made it really annoying and difficult to edit. One other thing I found was that it never automatically replayed my songs, so I have to do it manually every time. It usually works, but most of the time, but this actually takes place whenever it’s playing the last song in any of my playlists. Other than these two things that hopefully you guys are able to fix, I’d say that SoundCloud is a really great app to use for any kind of music-related activity. -SquirtleXD more

Very good but some issues Feb 5, 2018

So I’ve been using this app for the past 3 years and it has been amazing, but somethings I would wish could change as well as some issues I’ve ran into. The first thing is the UI, if I type in a song and I spell it wrong I wish it could put up something close to that and not say “ No Results”. Second thing is that I wish when you went into your saved playlist that you would start at the bottom or the newest song and not the top, but those I can live with so I own an IPhone X, I’m not showing off or anything but this thing has amazing speakers and for some reason when I play a song it crackles and pops which is soooo annoying, I’m an audio geek and I can not listen to a song when it cracks and pops it’s just infuriating. And the last thing is something that I’ve wanted for so long is to be able to post songs from your phone because not all of us own computers, and or laptops but the option to be able to post songs from your phone would be awesome. I hope you bring these ideas in consideration and hopefully are able to fix that bug but anyways I love this app and this is the only way to listen to songs that are posted by non singers or artists. more
Very great but some difficulties Aug 5, 2018

By JayZuckerman

Hello I’ve been a SoundCloud user since 2012 but didn’t really get into it until 2013. I would like to say SoundCloud is fantastic. However, I have problems listening to music without it cutting off every 30 seconds. Then once I press play, the same thing keeps happening. Also, as someone that makes music, I hate that there’s a pay wall behind me seeing simple things as who’s listening all over the world. Why should I by SoundCloud Go just to see things like that? The least I’m buying it for is playing music offline, that’s about it. Aside from that, I feel like SoundCloud Go is just not even worth it. I liked using SoundCloud until y’all introduced SoundCloud Go. Which basically limited us from listening to big artist on there giving us 30 seconds of a song just so we can buy that pay wall to listen to a full song we can listen to on other music apps. Not to mention the spotlight on our profiles. Are you seriously going to make us pay for that? That’s like paying $5 just to pin a tweet on Twitter. All I’m saying is I love SoundCloud, but I can’t stand it when they’re trying to beat around the bush just to make us pay for something. more

I have been a Soundcloud Go user for several years now. I have no problem paying for this subscription because I love this app, however there are issues which I feel if addressed, could make this app much better. For years I have dealt with tracks out of my likes being deleted or removed. I understand many of these tracks are leaked and therefore are not supposed to be on the app, however this is not the case for all songs that are removed. There is nothing worse than wanting to listen to a song and not being able to find it. Out of my 1,500 + likes I cannot remember the names of all songs I like. I believe if these tracks are deleted it would be very helpful that instead of them simply being taken down, they should still exist in your likes, even if you can’t listen to them. This way, I’m not really losing my music. I’d still be able to find the songs elsewhere, it’s just so frustrating having music disappear. Please address this issue. Also fix your search algorithms!! Neither of these issues seem like they would be difficult to address. Please fix for the sake of users!! Makes me rethink paying my subscription. more

I love this app. But lately, it's been unable to play tracks that I've had saved for years. I've tried updating, clearing everything, and it hasn't helped much. I use to think it was the signal, but even on my solid wifi it's been slacking to play tracks (including go+). Fingers crossed y'all figure it out so I can groove uninterrupted 🤞🤙 more
Sad Oct 20, 2019

By esl_209

I’ve had this app for around 3 years and I had around 300 sounds that I had in my liked section because all of them wouldn’t fit in a playlist and I was okay with it. During those 3 years I loved it because I like underground rappers starting from SoundCloud and rising to the top and I would always search for new artist just so I wouldn’t have the same music as everybody else and I’d always show my friends and they’d always ask who it is and for me that’s a compliment cause putting someone on a new artist always makes me feel like that boy. But anyways a couple days ago when I was going to show my friend a couple new songs I found I went to the like section and all of my music that I had liked were gone. All those 3 years of searching for new music that little to no one has heard before done the drain and y’all don’t know how sad I felt cause now I’m never going to get to listen to those songs again because I dug really deep to find them and I’m not going to waste my time searching for it again. Soundcloud staff members, if you happen to see this please pleaseeee let me know if there’s anyway you guys can get my music back that’s all I want😭 more

I love this app I've used it for years but recently anytime I'm organizing songs in a play list I move it up to one spot but then it'll glitch and move back down to where it was. It's really really annoying. Also the editing playlist feature it a little awkward to use, before you could hold the song near the top of the screen to move it up but you can't now 😕. more
Great Jan 30, 2021

By Kyo Byboshi

I been on SoundCloud for at least 5 and a half years and it’s awesome. There was at times bugs where I request songs to be in a playlist but rarely it crashes while doing so. Another thing is that there is a gimmick where there is songs that have like a “star” symbol or a premium song where you have to pay to listen for monthly cost. But not only you can listen to these premium songs, you can put download playlist for out of service ordeals. I would say the major downfall for this streaming service app is that I have to type the right perfect word for a song title, artist, or even a album in the search bar. If I misspelled a word, it would give me a totally different result of music or even no result at all. Therefore, I have to make sure to make more of a tension to spell the word of the song and such throughly. But other than that, I’ve been using the app at first free but I decided to pay monthly because I’ve been traveling more often now so it makes since of downloading songs. I recommend using this app. I’ve been previously using grooveshark until they shut down in 2015 then I switched over to SoundCloud. more
Mobile App Bugs Jun 20, 2019

By Baconherobt

I’ve been experiencing two separate issues. The first one happenes when I’m streaming SoundCloud via blue tooth and the mobile app gets stuck in a loop. It plays the song then an ad and then the same song again and the same ad. So far the only way I have figured out to cancel the loop is to restart the app. The second issue I’m experiencing is (and it’s fairly difficult to explain) when ever I create a station from a song I like on the mobile app, it creates a station but down at the bottom of the screen where it shows the playlist for the station, it queues up some where between two and seven copies of the same song. All the copies of the song play at one time, but audio wise, only one plays. This problem does not stop when I close and restart the app, and it seems to happen to any song, even ones that are not in my “Likes”. I really enjoy SoundCloud, and it is my first choice when deciding what platform to listen to music on and it’s always disappointing to discover a bug. That being said, thank you for taking the time to read this. more
It’s okay, but... May 22, 2018

By TInsaneF

So I don’t really write reviews, but I have an issue or two (maybe more) with the app that really bugs me. One: the pause/play button on the control center/lock screen. I tap the pause button, but the music keeps playing anyways. I have to soft reset my phone each time, and it’s exhausting. Two: sometimes my music starts to crackle. It’s rare, but it’s so annoying when it does happen. Three: when I add a song to a playlist, it adds it all the way down to the bottom instead to the top, and when you have a long playlist, hitting edit at the top, scrolling all the way to the bottom, and waiting for the song to be dragged all the way up is also exhausting. Four: sometimes the time stops, so the song will be going, but it’ll say something like 0:10 when it’s just about over. And to fix it, I have to drag the dot to a different time, hoping it’ll land on something close, but when you don’t know what second it’s on, it’ll mess up the song, and ruin the listening experience. Other than that, it’s easy to use. But please fix these four problems. more

It's a pretty good app for listening to music, but I think the recent update has a bug that conflicts with my phone. Whenever I play music on soundcloud the waveform doesn't open & I get two different notifications for it. The usual one that's supposed to let skip to anypart of the song but only shows the song as paused and a new one the only let's me pause & go to the next and previous songs. Edit: I just used soundcloud after a few days & I think it's finally gone. more

I think it works way better than most other music apps, don't very much like that you have to get the Premium subscription to be able to listen to certain songs, and I have had this bug where once one song ends it won't play the next song in the playlist as it'll be paused, so I either have to open up my phone again to unpause or press a button on my headphones to unpause. But other than those this is a very nice app, and ads aren't thrown in my face constantly either. more
Playlist Organization Nov 27, 2019

By _shannon

SoundCloud is great but there are a lot of glitches with playlists that need to be fixed. Trying to rearrange your songs in your own playlists is a hassle, it takes multiple tries to get the song to permanently move because it often just reverts back to where it was right after you moved it. I always have to close then reopen the open to check and make sure my songs moved to where I wanted them to. Also the icons you can upload for your playlist cover never seem to update unless you actually open up and go into the playlist. This doesn’t seem to be much of an issue on the desktop but on mobile my set display cover is never what I picked, it’s usually automatically always the same picture as the first song in that playlist. This gets really irritating because if I want people to check out my playlists, the first thing they see is the display image and I would rather them see the one I chose than of the picture from someone’s track! Lastly, please incorporate the option to move around your playlists. I have playlists from months ago that are at the way end of my profile and would rather have some of those at the forefront of my profile when you visit it. Really hope you consider ideas to fix these problems. Otherwise great app and I’ll always be a user. more

By Isaiah kinchen (Soul Evans)

I need to preface first by saying that results are the same on wifi or on 4g full bars. The buffering on this app is significantly worse than I remember. It's worse than youtube, which makes no sense because its just playing audio, no video. Often times it will just stop playing a song at around 18 seconds in and then buffer for a whole minute. This happens about every third song or so. It's driving me nuts. Pair that with the long ads and the breaks start feeling like cable television. more

One of the worst apps I've ever used, and I'm verified. The app crashes literally every single time I use it. On wifi and on my service. I have plenty of space on my phone also, this app just seems to want to crash every time. Also, I JUST got messenger, idk why it took 10 years for me to get it while everyone else was using it. I love soundcloud, but I actually HATE the app though. more

It's a great app for people that want to listen to underground artist and there is a lot of beats for those that are aspiring musicians. Also great for directly socialising with other musicians. You can also upload you own music here, or whatever. The app itself if fine and dandy but I for one can't upload music using the app. I have to do it through the website unfortunately. more

By echo_ ten

I've been using the app for a little while finding and discovering old and new songs and even remixes that I sometimes end up liking more than originals, but recently it seems to randomly pause and unpause itself during the play of a song. Thought it was my earbuds malfunctioning and yet it does so when playing it through the audio speaker on my phone, and it's doing it as I am typing this out. And it isn't notifications or other audio playing in the background, it's frustrating😒 more
I like it for music, I guess. Aug 8, 2019

By Souple's soup

I think what truly ruins the experience is the same culprit that could ruin any music app, ads are one of the main reasons I dislike using this app, they’re long, repetitive, and after a while become very annoying. It doesn’t help that the only ads you get are anti-smoking, I get it, smoking is bad, guys. But can we get some different ads, maybe instead of interrupting the music experience, just do pop-ups, at least get some new shorter ads. And don’t give us the option to skip ads if the ad ends before the skip timer, its infuriating. The timer will be 30 seconds and the ad will end just before. Don’t give us the option if we can’t use it. This has become more of a review on anti-smoking ads. I don’t smoke and I find these ads annoying, they’re deliberately unnerving. They don’t make me thinking “stop smoking” they make me think “ew why, I don’t even smoke why I’m I forced to endure this”. Besides this I think there’s a genre for everyone here, and you can find some nice music here that you can’t hear on the radio, though I’m mostly here for the soundclown memes. more
not horrible, but not perfect Jun 8, 2020

By TheDemon_Adelaide

there are many minor issue about the app, like how you cant re arrange your liked songs and have to add every song to a playlist to control their positions (which i dont understand why thats even a thing). But the main 2 issues i have with this is the amount of times the app refreshes after its opened, to the point where it becomes the norm, and the amount of ads it give. The app constantly gives me ads in between songs and ruin the vibe, i could be listening to some sentimental music at high volume then get cut off by some guy talking about a brand new car i never knew even existed, exploading my ears by how loud the ads are, and not only that, sometimes it gives me 2 ads back to back, both 30 whole seconds, making me waste an entire minute listening to ads when i could of been done with the second song in the queue. many problems occur in the app, but other than that, the music is crispy, they give a variaty of different music every week, and it can play in the background. Its a fairly good app but its not perfect. more
Soundcloud is okay... but could use work in certain areas! Apr 1, 2021

By bekehehb

soundcloud is great i’ve always loved it but there’s so many songs that i can’t listen to because i don’t pay money every month??? there’s other apps i could download for music where i can listen to any song i want to, all of my friends and everyone i’ve talked to about it say that they don’t use soundcloud for this reason. my loyalty for soundcloud lies deep but i’m getting really annoyed every time i fall in love with a song and can’t put it on my playlist. i know for a fact that if this changed, so many more people would use soundcloud. or at least drop the monthly price down, i bet a large percentage of people that use soundcloud are 14-25 years old... people at this age generally don’t make as much money as the average person yet- due to being in high school and only having a part time job, or in college with a part time job trying to pay off student loans. not only would it make people happy, but it might be good for soundcloud’s benefits too!!! more
Obnoxious, but usable. Sep 16, 2018

By Other_sans

Ok, never thought I would write one of these, but I need to set this straight, just in case I’m not crazy. I love soundcloud, I really do. I’ve been using it for ages and it’s one of the only music apps that lets you stream underground music instead of mainstream music, of which I listen to more often. However, it was definitely better before. Not sure when, but years ago I used SoundCloud ad free without payment. It was awesome, it really was, and ads came up maybe one a day. However, one day, more and more ads came up, however I could skip them after like five seconds, so it was fine. But recently, around a couple months, I’ve been getting 30 second non skippable ads that come up after every like two songs. This is absolutely outrageous. I don’t mind an ad or two, but this many is just awe full. If you are going to throw ads at me like this, use banners. Really. And if you still can’t do THAT, at least make the ads easily skippable, and definitely not 30 seconds. No one is going to see this I’m guessing but I had to vent. more

Never try to fix something that isn’t broken Sep 16, 2022

By Kakashi Hatake02

Never try to fix something that isn't broken. Ever since the big change this app has been a terrible, very irritating experience. First they remove the ability to sort songs and now I just started dealing with the worst bug i've ever encountered in probably anything, for whatever reason, all of a sudden when I try to add a song to a playlist all of my already existing ones disappear, but when I make a new playlist they all return, it's like part of the app thinks I don't have any playlists yet and part of the app knows I in fact do, I would not be surprised if it actually deletes them all. (When I delete the playlist I just made my already existing ones are actually deleted temporarily, I have to close the app at least once when this happens) They literally just updated this app, how does it have more and bigger bugs??? it seems like every update is ruining the app more and more now. I have countless hours spent on this app adding songs, if a developer is reading this, PLEASE don't take my progress away, and if a new user is reading this, I highly recommend finding a different app, this one is not worth the time. If I could find a better app I would use that one more
Lots of minor/medium problems May 19, 2020

By RealDougtheDonkey

SoundCloud is fine. I like that it’s free. There are some songs, like Elise by The Greeting Committee, that used to be free but now require a premium for you to listen to. I’d prefer if more were free, but beggars can’t be choosers. Anyways, I don’t even know if that decision is up to SoundCloud or the individual creators. There are some more glaring problems, though. For one, when I try to scroll down quickly, the app gets really laggy, shows me one frame a second, and scrolls down incredibly slow. It’s infuriating when I’m trying to go low down in my likes songs. Another issue is finding when a song was posted or looking at its description. Both of these are impossible on the SoundCloud app. It seems that the developers only care about the computer version of SoundCloud, when it is much, much better as a mobile app. I have no clue why you would focus on the computer more. It’s not like I can carry a computer in my pocket while it’s connected to headphones or anything. Also, when someone replies to one of my comments I’d like to be notified. This one is just a small suggestion. I usually like the app, but it needs major, major polishing. Please update it! more
Nov 23, 2022

By Ian Healey

SoundCloud is generally great, but nothing more frustrating than refusing to stream a set (for unknown reasons) you've had your eyes on. Icing on cake? After being forced to add it to a playlist to try and download it, the app asks me to give it a rating. Hmm. Typically both a great app and service, disappointed by this behavior. more
Disappointed but holds a place in my heart Mar 27, 2022

By 30852251888

I love SoundCloud coz I’ve been using it literally since elementary school, but it’s gone down hill. First, when you shuffle your playlist, it’s like the app has pre made shuffle lists from your playlist so it plays the same songs in the same order. I noticed this way too much so I tested this by writing down the sounds that would play, then a few days later I’d shuffle my list and it matched. That’s really dumb and annoying and I don’t understand why that’s a feature, if my playlist being shuffled like that is simply by chance then that’s crazy, but if it’s the app then why? Second, ads: before I didn’t mind the ads, but now when using the mobile app if an ad plays while you’re on the app, you’re forced to watch/skip the ad because it won’t play off the app in the background. That was not a thing a few years ago, why SoundCloud ): y’all are the OG and the prime spot for finding new artists and got exclusively unique songs from artists so I’ll always love the app but these reasons have caused me to switch to Apple Music <\3 more
BUGS BUGS BUGS Sep 6, 2022

By Surprised VEY MUCH

Aloha, Okay, I’m officially intrigued. You are a whole company… I’ve been I college for 5 years for computer science/ software engineering. I had souncloud since I was in 8th grade, the only music app I’d use. 😂 A week ago I duplicated your “app” and made it exactly the same as yours when not published; though don’t get fooled by that sentence; I know my rights, fk add on to what I have just said. I have 4 years of study before college with experience. Why am I a Karen about this little thing? I did it ONLY BECAUSE, the bugs In your system AFTER THE RECENT UPDATE; Such as, searching for a song and my screen crashes. Trying to lick a song my screen freezes and I cannot click anything, trying to scroll through my playlist and it freezes; Not sufficient. SOUNDCLOUD was doing amazing. Comparing yourself to other platforms of music will not make you more successful. I think this is great feedback, for you guys to know, & also fix the bugs if Instagram can do it in a day you can too, it doesn’t take “much” money all the time it takes your brains in the company. Mahalo nui loa. more
New update disappointment Feb 5, 2023

By A. Uzi

Unfortunately with this new update it seems it made my SoundCloud experience as an artist/collaborator a bit less enjoyable. From problematic situations after another. I understand it’s difficulty with making sure you meet the demands and compliance of clients and listeners needs, so I won’t be too brash on my comments. However I’ve engaged as much as possible to reach out to developers in order to review certain problematic reoccurrence’s such as, app crashes, mp4 or .wav uploads to even downloads for on the go. Search engines freeze upon scrolling to seek other users in support of their creative musical projects to even networking with other artists or inspired early staged musicians. On the plus side developers were able to modify and correct including add certain features towards linked content for digital turn table play and other adaptions for connecting and linking with my equipment, digital switches and soundboards. Hopefully future developments on these updates would be greatly improved where it wouldn’t hinder subscribers use of application. more
SoundCloud is being slow/Loading Error...Tap to try again Mar 16, 2021

By raz_davidov

I just want to say that I love this app so much, I use SoundCloud like 24/7! It is my favorite because not only do I love listening to the music I like, but I also happen to upload my own songs on there as well. My only issue with this is app is that it’s been lately being very slow on my phone. Whenever I go on SoundCloud nowadays it’s acts like one of those old computer machines that people would try to use back in the day, or it is also kind of like using an old phone because it runs very very slow on my phone. Also, I have been experiencing lots of loading errors on each song whenever I want to shuffle music on SoundCloud on my phone. Some work and then some just don’t want to work, and it is very strange because it hasn’t done this to me before. If there is any way that this issue can be fixed, please fix it so that I won’t have this problem at all anymore. Thank you so much! more
TOO MANY ADS Feb 11, 2020

By joseph A D !!!

I don’t really write reviews for apps ever. I used to love this app and still use it occasionally but these ads are getting way too out of hand. I understand that the app has to make money but it seems like they are intentionally throwing ads almost every other song just to get you to buy SoundCloud plus or whatever the paid version is called. And it’s not like they are short ads either. It’s every other song a 30 second ad. I have started just closing the app out and reopening it and going back to the same song in half the time it would take for these repetitive ads to be done. I do not think that this deserves one star. I put it there in hopes that someone will see it and make a change. 2 years ago I would have given this app 5 stars but now with the amount of ads I would not truthfully give it more than 3 stars. Update: it’s getting worse. I am having ads stop music in the middle of 3 or 4 minute songs. This is not okay. Later Update: ¿ALL MY ADS ARE IN SPANISH? more
Your new update is trash Jul 25, 2022

By sXn_f1Xw3r

SoundCloud is fine it does it’s job better than most music apps but it has multiple completely stupid problems.1 I can’t play certain songs for absolutely no reason that I used to be able to play before.2 some songs you literally cannot find for absolutely no reason you will be listening to it accidentally remove from liked and then never see it again it’s annoying.3 get rid of the 13 million copies of songs idc if it’s a repost or not if the creators didn’t upload it it shouldn’t be there I’m tryna listen to new music and then the same song uploaded by 40 different people keeps playing which reminds me stop putting the same music in the created for me playlists why would I even click on them if it’s the same songs I have liked. All of this and more was already an issue before you remodeled SoundCloud so why don’t you guys actually fix your app instead of making it look pretty more
Important issue with the app that needs fixing May 12, 2019

By Manemjef

I’ve been using Soundcloud for over a year now and one thing that has been happening on an off again is a bug that crashes the app when your phone is turned off and listening to music. This was patched a long time ago, but it’s back because of a recent update. Whenever you are listening to songs and the phone is turned off, around the 0:45 mark the app crashes. It’s really annoying when you’re in the shower and you can’t access your phone. And on top of that, an ad plays every 5 or so songs instead of 10 to 20 when I am looking through songs. And it’s one of those video ads that pauses when you go to the home menu or turn off your phone, making you watch 30 seconds of disturbing imagery about what happens when you vape. I’ve hung up with it before, but at this point, I just can’t. I really urge SoundCloud to fix this. The only reason I still use this app is because it hosts some of my favorite artists. more

Unfortunately, just not worth it anymore. Sep 21, 2021

By toneytone24

A couple years ago I would’ve given 10/5 stars if I could. But nowadays, there’s so many advertisements that it makes listening not even worth it. I completely understand the reason for advertisements & for a long time, I could put up with them. However, I just used SoundCloud for the first time in maybe a year. THERE IS 2 ADS BETWEEN EACH TRACK. Back when I used to use SoundCloud for all my music, I’d have to put up with an occasional ad or two every 4-6 songs. But now it’s simply unbearable. I’m not exaggerating when I say I just logged onto SoundCloud & the first 4 tracks I played, I got 2 ads in between each. It was frustrating after the 2. Annoying after the 3rd. Infuriating after the 4th & I didn’t stick around for the 5th. I’ve been using audiomack as of late. I’d recommend that to anyone who doesn’t have music specifically on SoundCloud. I know that’s the reason I used SoundCloud so much. A lot of the underground artists would start on SoundCloud and their music would then find its way to other platforms. But I just can’t do the ads anymore. If you suggest paying for SoundCloud, why would I? The search engine all the way to the user experience is just terrible. Anyway, just my opinion. Happy listening, all! more
App terrible interface but desktop great! Make them the same! Sep 17, 2018

By Music computer guy works great

The app is so terrible compared to the desktop version. The searches never come up the they do on desktop, I never see my page with my spotlight 5 tracks when I open it up, i have to scroll forever just to get to what is normally right there on my desktop.... the app gets ZERO. As an artist and some one and I are talking about music and who I like and what I sound like I’d like to be able to easily show them or find the name of the musician I was listening too earlier that day etc. I have more specific complaints but these are the ones that come to mind. The ‘usability’ and ease of interface is just terrible on the app version. I gave an 8 or something for the recommendation of SoundCloud to people but , it would have been a 10 if the stupid interface on the app wasn’t so clunky. The two interfaces (desk and app) should look and work essentially the same. A girl told me it was impossible for her to figure out how to repost my song on the app version. she gave up in frustration. In some way that reflects on me and I lost a precious repost. Also I’d like to be able to link my two accounts , even if it is just slightly more a month to have both on premium. That last note is not about the app obviously. Thanks for listening. more
Feb 1, 2023

By Gyromatical

Around last year SoundCloud started blocking mobile browsers from listening to any music. If you go to the site you'll see there's a transparent black graphic across the screen with nothing but a button to try to get you to download their app. So basically they're using your music as a way to corral people into making them money by downloading their app. They're limiting your exposure for their benefit. Find somewhere else instead because they clearly don't care about you. more

A super annoying bug that has been happening for the past couple weeks is where a song will end, and it'll try and play an ad, but then it says that something went wrong in the app, and pauses the next song at the very beginning. So it makes me manually press play every single time a new song starts. more
One Big Dislike May 27, 2018

By Iden rahtsami

SoundCloud I hope your reading this. The one thing that is keeping me from uploading more tracks and being able to see all the people who has liked or listened to my tracks like I used to is SoundCloud Go. I know you guys are probably losing money and your money thirsty but it doesn’t mean you have to have all these aspiring music producers pay monthly just to upload more tracks or view all the likes or listeners, just have people pay monthly to stream exclusive music and nothing else. I’m sure a lot of people would disagree with me on this but for a somewhat broke producer who’s paying monthly for other subscriptions, I just don’t have enough money to pay for SoundCloud Go, just to upload more tracks and other stuff I mentioned earlier. I hope you guys understand and wish to fix this problem that me and probably a few others are going through. Now, all you guys have done is rearrange some icons and make the app look somewhat cool, but you guys haven’t added anything new yet to the app which means I’m still very very disappointed. After every update this platform has made, it keeps getting worse. more
Seriously? Aug 10, 2018

I referred maybe 10 friends already to this app. This last version. I took a chance and still downloaded it, it’s broken. Crashes on each song I play. Maybe you should stop running all those ads? Every 2 songs there is a new ad “please upgrade to SoundCloud go” you have now convinced me why I shouldn’t update and wait for jailbreaks to block all those ads. You want to tarnish your name so bad that you put so many ads that it crashes your app. Good job! Driving back from a outing and sitting with a girl listening to ads, awesome. Why would I do that? I already pay for other things. We normal people can’t afford to buy so many useless subscriptions here and there. I can’t believe this. Also seriously, what happened to the easy way to get to playlists? They used to be big icons easy to click now as I am driving I can barely see my icons which discourages me from using this app, if I can’t see my playlists I won’t use the app. Period. I’m a veteran user from iPhone 5 (7.0.4) to iPhone X finally and each upgrade I get with my phones your app gets worse. How is that for useless programming? more
Constantly crashes in the background Sep 1, 2022

By Mergplatelip

The app has always been painfully slow, but it’s been worse more recently. Sometimes it takes so long to load that my phone just falls asleep. I have gigabit internet at home and I know that isn’t the problem. The app regularly crashes about half way through the first song I play about ⅔ of the time I use it. This problem has persisted from my iPhone 6S on iOS 9, through my iPhone XS to now on my iPhone 13 Pro on iOS 15. SoundCloud has never fixed this problem and the website is far more usable than this absolutely awful app. UPDATE: the crashing still hasn’t been fixed with the new redesign, and the problems are even worse now. I can no longer stream anything on cellular data, it only spams me with SoundCloud Go ads whenever I try to play anything, and on Wi-Fi it won’t load artist profiles. It’s absolutely useless and I have since deleted it. I’ll stick to using the desktop site on my phone since the mobile site is also unusable. more
extremely annoying Jul 29, 2022

i've been publishing my music on here for 2 years and honestly i'm tired of this app. a lot of stats which i should be able to see are usually responded with "error please try again later" and proceeding to never function properly. don't even get me started on the ads. you have to genuinely sit there and watch it or else it stops. you aren't allowed to pick another song during YOU HAVE TO SIT THERE AND WATCH A FULL MINUTE OF IRRELEVANT CONTENT. bask in the glory of geico insurance i guess. i have stuff to do man. the hashtags they want us to use seem pointless as well. i feel they don't make a difference at all when songs i don't use hashtags on tend to get even more plays than the ones i do. i don't even know what my plan of action will be if i can't grow using their own sharing tactics. soundcloud is all i know but i've been growing to be fed up with it. they never fix problems or respond. i read bad reviews from 3 years ago that are relevant today. this entire situation is frustrating. more
Finally time to switch to something new Jun 13, 2022

I’ve used SoundCloud for years. First issue was me paying double the amount for a subscription because I’d been on the platform longer. Next was the glitches slowly arising on my favorite tracks. Now, the app is getting to the point of unusable and when comparing it to its competitors, it continues to push tech for the creators, but has fallen short on the consumers. Latest issue, I have to restart the app over and over again just to get a few tracks to play before ads get stuck in some loop glitch. This is when I have to close and RE open the app a few times… the new user interface was useless. Yeah, it is cleaner, but it’s unusable when it comes to functionality. The design is alright, but I’ve seen better ui/ux from people just starting in the field, so I’m done subscribing to SoundCloud and I’m pretty close to deleting it. Just gotta manually go through all my tracks to make sure I have them on another platform. more
