Listeners can access and download a wide variety of indie music. It's worth noting that not every song on SoundCloud can be downloaded - that depends on your subscription plans and the artist's permission. But don't worry; whatever the reason, you won't be at a complete loss as before. Keep reading. Here are two ways to help you out. Look into it!

Method 1. Download Songs from SoundCloud via the App

SoundCloud is available in the desktop and iOS and Android mobile. So this part will demonstrate how to download SoundCloud songs on a computer or mobile phone. Most SoundCloud songs are only accessible to the paid subscription. You need to upgrade the Free account to two premium subscription plans called Go and Go+.

From Desktop App/Webplayer

Step 1: Open SoundCloud desktop app on the computer or the SoundCloud Webplayer from the chrome.

Step 2: Navigate to your liked song, click "More". And click "Download file" if the artist has made the song available for download.

From Mobile App

Step 1: Launch SoundCloud app on your phone, then log in to your account.

Step 2: Tap the "Your Library icon" from the bottom menu.

Step 3: Click three-vertical dot icon, and then tap "Download".

Note:

For one thing, SoundCloud starts as a free trial service, after which you need to pay for two premium subscription plans, called Go and Go+, priced at $4.99 and $9.99, respectively. Free users can download open tracks via the SoundCloud Web player, but the download maximum is 100 songs. While the paid subscriptions enable the subscribers to download SoundCloud songs offline, but the downloaded audio is streamed to the software only, with no ability to play SoundCloud downloads on any device.

For another thing, artists have the option to disallow the downloading of audio tracks. Most famous artists don't allow for a direct download of the song. So users can't save music from SoundCloud on their devices or download whatever they want.
