SoundCloud is a very good app for playing tons of different genres of music and many other tracks, and I'd recommend it above Spotify. The primary reason as to why I rated SoundCloud 4 stars is due to the fact how there's this phenomenon where when you go to your "Liked tracks" in the Library menu on the bottom of your screen, sometimes when I tap a specific song I want to play, it'll put on the song above or below it instead, and when I correct it by tapping my song, it'll play an ad. Annoying.

I love how there are sped up/ slowed down versions of songs. I've used SoundCloud for only a year now, but I much recommend this over Spotify. It sucks how it's not on Xbox, though! Its also a bit annoying when you have to pay for the premium subscription for certain songs. But otherwise, it's a perfect music streaming app! 110% recommend edit: having lyrics would be super cool! the one thing Spotify has that this doesn't šŸ˜“ otherwise still doing me well!

Before, SoundCloud would randomly pause for a second then start up again (for *every* *single* song). It was annoying, but manageable. The new update completely broke the app. Now, if I accidentally swipe past a song and try to swipe back, the song sits frozen for 3 minutes, then says "Not Playable", even though I was just listening to it. I can trace this issue to the new update because it literally didn't start until I updated my app. Today. This app is slowly degrading and that makes me sad.
