Great news for SoundCloud users, as developers have just announced that a new update is now rolling out to iOS devices. The new version of SoundCloud comes with several new features and some under-the-hood improvements.

“Just in time for summer, we’re excited to announce a significant update to the SoundCloud iOS app - one that brings new features and functionality to your on-the-go listening experience,” say developers in a blog post.

The first new feature mentioned in the changelog is the ability to play related tracks. With the latest version of SoundCloud, users will be able to find their favorite tracks, then let the app's enhanced algorithm create a long stream of similar content from the 100 million tracks on SoundCloud.

The only thing you will need to do in order to benefit from the new feature is tap the Play Related Track new tab.

The update is now live in App Store

Another new feature included in this update is called Shuffle tracks and allows SoundCloud users to use the shuffle option for their liked tracks and in their playlists.

Furthermore, developers have confirmed that users will now be able to add or remove tracks directly from their playlists. This can be done directly from within the app, with no need to log onto SoundCloud in a browser.

Simply tap the three dots on any track to open the options list and then add or remove tracks to curate your favorite SoundCloud experience.

Last but not least, the official changelog mentions that the update adds the ability to repost and share. This can done directly from the search screen and from the list of liked tracks.

If you don't have the application yet, you can now download SoundCloud for iOS for free via App Store. The application should be fully compatible with all devices running iOS 7.0 or later.
