I truly love using this app for listening to music and posting my own. However, within the last few weeks, streaming on data is impossible. The first song will play fine, but every song after endlessly loads before skipping through tons of songs and getting stuck. It makes the experience frustrating, as I've never had this issue before. Overall, good for streaming music, but a HUGE step backwards recently.

Hi there, thanks for letting us know. Seems the latest Instagram app broke this functionality. They are working on a fix already. Meanwhile we found a workaround: by first initiating a new Story in the Instagram app, then going back into the SoundCloud app to perform the normal 'share to Stories' function.

What happened? SoundCloud has been my go to for music for years now. Never had a problem until recently. mixes I've become to adore are just not available. One or two missed sets, reasonable. spending a fair bit for a subscription to the service.... SoundCloud has become almost unusable and a sad disappointment..

Main problem I have is how it tends to lag badly and crash a lot with huge playlists (eg 2k+ likes) but otherwise just about as good as the site, doesn't remove random features for no reason. // Edit: nvm it consistently has 1+ second freezes for a minute or so then crashes regardless, not sure if it's my 3k downloads (which still haven't finished downloading over the course of a month on gigabit?) or what, but installing 2025-05-25-release made it usable again.
