I just got this new account from clicking on a sound from Facebook, what does that mean?
You would've seen a dialog box before asking if you would like to add SoundCloud to your Timeline. If you clicked "Add to Timeline", an account would've been created and you would've been able to listen to the sound your friend was listening to!
Note: with this newly created account, any sounds or other sounds you actively favorite on SoundCloud will be posted to your Facebook Timeline. If you would prefer to not have this, please disconnect these actions here.
If you would like to remove this account completely, please get in touch with us. -
What happens when I click a sound that someone else has listened to on Facebook?
1.) If you don't have a SoundCloud account and you decide to click on a sound that one of your friends has listened to, like in the image below:
You'll be directed to a dialog that will let you know about the app. If you accept to add the app to your Timeline, you will be signed up for a SoundCloud account and will be directed to a page with the sound you originally clicked on along with a welcome message.
2.) If you already have a SoundCloud account, aren't signed in and click on a sound one of your friends is listening to, you'll see the same dialog and we'll sign you into your SoundCloud account based on the email address connected to your Facebook account.
3.) If you already have a SoundCloud account, are signed in and click on a sound one of your friends listened to, you'll be directed straight to the track's page -
Why do I have to sign up to listen via Facebook?
If you use your Facebook account to explore SoundCloud, we want to offer you a personalized experience on SoundCloud to make you feel at home. After signing up, it's also really easy to share your sound discoveries on your Timeline too! -
What image is used when I share to Facebook?
When sharing to Facebook, if the track or set you are sharing has artwork uploaded to it, it will be displayed. If not, your profile picture will be shown. If neither your track, set, or profile photos are present, a SoundCloud logo will be shown in their place. -
Why is my artwork not showing up on Facebook when I share tracks?
It can take time for recently uploaded images to filter through correctly when shared on Facebook. If your image isn't displaying when you are to Facebook, please check it displays correctly on SoundCloud, wait, and try again later. Thanks for your patience! -
