Questions
Quick answers.
Is there a SoundCloud app for PC?
SoundCloud Desktop is an unofficial app for Windows, macOS and Linux, made by an independent project, not by SoundCloud.
Download for PC How is the app different from the website?
Same music, same account. The difference: no ads, a Russian interface, lyrics, an equalizer, an offline library and Discord status.
All features Do I need a SoundCloud account?
Yes. You sign in on SoundCloud's own page in the browser; the app never sees your password. Without signing in only the offline library opens.
How to sign in Can I use both the app and the browser?
Yes. Likes, playlists and follows sync with your account in the background: usually minutes, up to a day when SoundCloud limits requests.
