As far as I know, SoundCloud is a preferred application that provides fantastic free music and podcast streaming services to its fans. Today, I noticed a few issues with the SoundCloud iOS app. I also observed that people are facing the same complications: frequent SoundCloud crashes, SoundCloud skipping tracks, it keeps pausing and crashing when saving offline music, etc.
