How to Sign Out of SoundCloud and Manage Offline Content
How can users sign out of their SoundCloud account on different platforms?
To sign out of your account:
On the Web:
- Click the three dots in the top navigation header.
- Select ‘Sign out’. You will then be directed to a confirmation screen indicating that you have successfully signed out.
On Android:
- Go to your Profile page by clicking the library icon at the bottom right.
- Scroll to the bottom and click 'Sign Out'.
- A pop-up will appear stating, "Signing out removes all downloaded tracks," which applies to Go or Go+ users. This means that all your previously downloaded offline content will be removed.
On iOS:
- Go to your Profile page by clicking the library icon at the bottom right, then click on your avatar in the top right corner next to the casting button.
- Tap the Account button, where you'll find the option to Sign out.
- Confirm the sign-out action, keeping in mind that all your downloaded tracks will be removed.
What are the implications of signing out of SoundCloud, particularly for Go or Go+ users?
Signing out of your SoundCloud account has the following implications:
- Loss of Offline Content: For Go or Go+ users, signing out will remove all your downloaded tracks. This means you will lose access to any content you had downloaded for offline listening.
- Manual Re-download: If you sign back into the same account, you will need to manually re-select and download your albums or playlists for offline use. The system does not automatically restore your offline content, so you'll need to go through your library and re-download what you need.
How can users manage the re-downloading of tracks after signing back in?
To re-download your tracks after signing back into SoundCloud:
- Go to Your Library: Navigate to your library and find the albums or playlists you want to download.
- Select for Offline Download: Manually select each item for offline download by following the usual download process.
- Rebuild Your Offline Collection: It may take some time, but re-downloading your essential tracks ensures you have access to your favorite content even when you're offline.
