Comments on SoundCloud: Discover Music for Android

★★★★☆ Noah Jones · Oct 10, 2026
I wish some stuff for other artists didn't have gone Plus to listen to their music. That's just me.
★★★★★ Moses Nannestad · Oct 11, 2026
Pretty good. I like how you can upload your music by yourself unlike spotify and others. Try SoundCloud!
★★★★★ Brittany Hollon · Nov 4, 2026
Can listen to my songs anywhere at anytime, and I don't get many ads at all. Have been this app for over a year and still going strong would recommend.
★★★★★ Dante Sparda · Oct 21, 2026

★★★★☆ Kulwant Kaur · Nov 4, 2026
This app is too good, but there should be a way to delete if you send message to somebody. Like we can delete our whole chat at once . The creators must take my request and add the chat delete option in next update. Thanks
★★★★★ lolo get outta my lane barton · Oct 16, 2026
Love that you can find music done by up-and-coming artists. I found my brother look him up on SoundCloud. Z The Alien he's a Super Music Producer, songwriter from Minneapolis, Mn. His New tracks on his up-and-coming Artificial Heart album are the works of a year in the making. He wrote the lyrics but gave the music to the vocalists and created a masterpiece. Want more about Z and his unique creativity to music. Check him out and support his channel he really is amazing.
★☆☆☆☆ fitz · Oct 21, 2026
can't change my pfp, can't delete my place from public profile, one time you can play the song next time you can't, etc
★☆☆☆☆ ROAR ROARROAR · Oct 16, 2026
Every time I uninstall this app I lose my playlists, likes, all of it. I have factory reset my phone twice, and switched phones 2 times, that's 4 times. Every time I lost all my liked songs, playlists, everything, so fix that, stop it from happening n maybe I'll pay for SoundCloud again.
★☆☆☆☆ Syddhartha · Oct 16, 2026
App quality has gone downhill! Can't upload any tracks, SoundCloud claims I need to click the email I originally got when I made the account (a 3-year-old email!) Guess what, I have the ancient email! Clicking it does nothing! No new verification email is ever sent out, the original email does NOTHING. & why would I need to verify anyhow?? I already did YEARS ago! This app has gone nowhere but down hill since I started using it in 2016. Fire the incompetent developers!
★☆☆☆☆ BWood74 · Oct 10, 2026
For a music app songs never get played. Been almost a year and 3, 11, plays. Not very useful for me to use. Probably because you have to pay them to play songs. Everything is a money scam these days.
