How to download SoundCloud audio
- Step 1
Copy the link
Click Share under the track and copy the link, or copy the address from your browser.
- Step 2
Paste it above
Paste the link in the box at the top of this page and press Download. FetchBolt finds the audio and its formats.
- Step 3
Choose and save
Pick MP3 or M4A and a bitrate and tap Download. The file saves to your device.
What you get
MP3 at the quality SoundCloud streams (usually 128 kbps), or the original file when the artist offers it.
Many artists share free downloads on SoundCloud. When the original file is available, it’s listed first.
SoundCloud Go+ tracks and tracks blocked in our server’s region can’t be downloaded.
Download SoundCloud audio on iPhone and iPad
Open FetchBolt in Safari, paste the SoundCloud link and tap Download on the quality you want. Safari asks whether to download the file; tap Download and it saves to the Files app, in the Downloads folder.
To listen, open Files, go to Downloads and tap the MP3. You can share it to any music or podcast app that accepts files, or move it to iCloud Drive to reach it from your Mac.
Download on Android
In Chrome or any other browser, paste the link, pick a quality and tap Download. The file goes to your Downloads folder, and a notification lets you open it straight away.
Music players and file managers find the MP3 in Downloads. To keep it with your other music, move it to the Music folder with the Files app.
Download on Windows, Mac and Linux
Copy the link from the address bar or the Share button, paste it above and choose a quality. The MP3 saves to your Downloads folder in any browser: Chrome, Edge, Safari, Firefox or Brave. There's nothing to install.
If the download doesn’t work
Check that the audio plays for everyone: private posts, age-restricted content and anything that needs you to sign in can't be downloaded. Removed or region-locked tracks won't work either, and FetchBolt tells you which it is.
Copy the link with the app's Share button rather than from a search result, and paste it on its own. If SoundCloud is limiting traffic for a moment, wait a minute and try again. Large files take longer to prepare, and the button shows the progress while they do.
Is FetchBolt safe?
FetchBolt runs in your browser: no app, no extension and no sign-up, and it never asks for your SoundCloud password. Files are prepared on our servers only for as long as it takes to send them to you, then deleted, and we don't keep a history of your links.
The only buttons that download anything are the ones in the FetchBolt card under the box, next to each quality.
