App is ok but the car app is not, crashes a lot ### 3/5 — Too many ads *2026-08-23, version 8.74.0* I get that you guys are getting paid for playing ads, but does it have to be after every 2 songs? And they just have to be the most annoying ads I’ve ever heard, it feels like they’re all up and talking straight into my ears when I’m wearing AirPods. Please stop playing ads so much ### 2/5 — Bad audio quality *2026-08-23, version 8.74.0* the audio quality sucks ### 5/5 — Yesssss *2026-08-23, version 8.74.0* SoundCloud!!!!! ### 5/5 — CSGFOO *2026-08-23, version 8.74.0* HAD IT OVER 10 + years love it 🐍💯💯💯 ### 3/5 — Keeps signing me out *2026-08-23, version 8.74.0* Hi im a artist on SoundCloud and every two days it permanently removes my account even if I pay ### 5/5 — Great app *2026-08-23, version 8.74.0* Less ads please ### 5/5 — lizzy granted me salvation *2026-08-23, version 8.74.0* that’s all… ### 5/5 — гопгопгопгооооооо *2026-08-23, version 8.74.0* я люблю ваших мам ### 5/5 — Swag *2026-08-23, version 8.74.0* It’s amazing ### 5/5 — Underground. *2026-08-23, version 8.74.0* The beauty of this app is anyone can post anything.

I have poor connectivity, so you cant load my music. That makes sense to me, i understand that. But then you go off and give me 2 minutes of adds? How can you not load my music then proceed to give me the most annoying advertisements known to man? But I digress; why? Sounds like plain greed to me. While I’m here, who came up with over 90 seconds of adds? Soundcloud was great when the queue was able to skip adds, then tall removed that. Then you gave me an unbearable amount of adds. I love soundcloud, but I hate the people in charge. ### 1/5 — Bugs and glitches *2026-08-23, version 8.74.0* My Soundcloud playlist will randomly start scrolling through all my songs non stop - please fix asap ### 1/5 — Corporate, please go back to the drawing board *2026-08-23, version 8.74.0* There’s clearly a leadership problem at corporate. The user experience has fallen so low, i honestly lost respect for this app. The type of ads, the timing of the ads, the amount of ads. I’ll keep closing out the app every time I get an ad. Not gonna reward your greed when you won’t even give users a decent free experience. Shopify is better ### 1/5 — Downhill *2026-08-22, version 8.74.0* The apps recommended songs are so awful. Its like AI Is picking them for me and it doesnt feel personalized anymore. I pay for the plus version so itd be nice to reap the benefits???? ### 1/5 — Worst ads on the internet *2026-08-22, version 8.74.0* I’ve always loved SoundCloud but the current add picky is making it almost unusable.. 30 second long unskippable ads for SoundCloud?! Why?! ### 1/5 — Horrible horrific *2026-08-21, version 8.74.0* Horrible ### 1/5 — Broken *2026-08-20, version 8.74.0* Doesn’t even let me make an account, thinks I’m a robot ### 1/5 — Can’t even listen offline *2026-08-20, version 8.74.0* Remains in the stone era of music apps nowadays ### 1/5 — Always oops? *2026-08-20, version 8.74.0* Nothing is working or loading in the app still nothing is working or loading it’s been two months three months probably four months what is wrong with you people ### 1/5 — Free trial *2026-08-20, version 8.74.0* i was on free trial and i didnt get any email reminding me to cancel it, thanks for taking $10 away from me. i was gonna use that to buy food this week but i guess not. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great app but won’t let me like songs *2026-08-24, version 8.74.0* .. ### 5/5 — Good Bit rate *2026-08-24, version 8.74.0* Most tunes i saved to my playlist have been fairly good with decent bit rate, electronic music can sound totally different if not streamed at a higher rate, ### 5/5 — It’s a great music app *2026-08-24, version 8.74.0* Really easy to listen and upload your music to it ### 5/5 — The best appp of all time *2026-08-23, version 8.74.0* Helps me with depression and is the best app ever I love souubcloud I would request to everywon ### 5/5 — Good *2026-08-23, version 8.74.0* Best song I used ### 5/5 — SLAY *2026-08-23, version 8.74.0* da og slay nation ### 5/5 — Sound cloud is goated *2026-08-23, version 8.74.0* I can upload music on here and be able to male more music ### 5/5 — BEN-TEN loves sound cloud. *2026-08-23, version 8.74.0* Im in love with sound cloud its my go to for underground rap and other music i enjoy.
