Jukebox Soundcloud is a wide-ranging community of musicians, bands, podcasters, and more. The app retains all the hallmarks of the full site, allowing you to search for new artists to follow, listen to songs in your feed, and even record and post your own audio. Listening is completely free, and SoundCloud Pro is only really useful for music creators. However, if you are a creator, you can check out the Pro packages, starting from $8, which offer additional storage space and stats for uploaded tracks. Musixmatch boasts the world’s largest catalog of lyrics, and its dedicated app lets you listen to songs in your library with synced lyrics, including English-translated lyrics for songs in a foreign language. It also lets you search for song lyrics, whether by title or lyric, and helps you identify music playing around you with a simple tap. There’s a Pro service that gives you ofine access to lyrics and no ads, and the app also syncs up with other streaming services to provide lyrics for songs playing on them.
