- 3
Tap Download MP3
Confirm Download. The song saves to Files → Downloads.
How to download SoundCloud songs on iPhone (no app)
Use the three steps above: copy link → paste in Safari → Download MP3. It works on iOS 13 and later, with iPhone and iPad, and the SoundCloud MP3 opens in the Files app.
Find your downloaded SoundCloud MP3 on iPhone
Open the Files app, tap Browse, then Downloads. If you changed Safari's download location (Settings → Safari → Downloads), the MP3 is in that folder instead.
Tap the file to play it, or tap Share to send it to another music app, AirDrop it to your Mac, or save it to iCloud Drive.
Download a whole SoundCloud playlist on iPhone
Paste a playlist or album link and every track appears in a list. Download songs one by one, or use Download all (ZIP) — Files unzips it with one tap. More on the SoundCloud playlist downloader.
Why no app or Shortcut is better
SoundCloud downloader apps get removed from the App Store, and Shortcuts break whenever SoundCloud changes something. A browser tool keeps working, asks for no permissions and never sees your Apple ID. On Android? See the Android guide.
SoundCloud Downloader for iPhone – FAQ
How do I download SoundCloud songs on iPhone?
Copy the track link in the SoundCloud app, open SoundCloudTools in Safari, paste the link and tap Download MP3. The song saves to Files → Downloads.
Where do SoundCloud downloads go on iPhone?
Open the Files app → Browse → On My iPhone (or iCloud Drive) → Downloads. You can also long-press the Safari download icon to open the file.
Do I need a Shortcut or an app?
No. SoundCloudTools works directly in Safari or Chrome on iOS — no Shortcut, no App Store app and no jailbreak.

Yes. The steps are the same on iPad with iPadOS 13 or newer.
Can I add the MP3 to Apple Music?
On iPhone, Apple Music can't import files directly. Play the MP3 from Files, or sync it from a Mac/PC with Finder or iTunes to add it to your library.
Why does the download not start in Safari?
Make sure you're on iOS 13+, the link is a public SoundCloud track, and Safari isn't in a restricted Screen Time mode. Tap the blue download arrow in the address bar to see progress.
