Profile Finder for SoundCloud

Profile Finder for SoundCloud is an Android app built around one core task: helping SoundCloud listeners find artist profiles they may not have encountered yet. The listing describes the app as a discovery tool that finds new profiles and highlights musicians whose sound is close to the user's own taste, then presents the results as a list to browse.

Automatic profile discovery

According to the listing, the app automatically looks for new profiles, so users do not have to search manually for artists to follow. The description says the app uses innovative algorithms for this, but it does not explain how those algorithms work, so this profile does not describe them further.

Search strategies and similar-taste profiles

The listing says users can try different research strategies to surface profiles they might otherwise miss. The app also points to profiles that resemble the user's music taste, including artists who share styles and genres with the music the user already likes. The listing does not say how the user selects a strategy or how many results a search returns.

Reviewing results and opening profiles

After a search, users browse the list of results. Selecting an artist opens that artist's SoundCloud profile, and the listing states that users can explore the artist's music and playlists from there.

Following artists and revisiting saved searches

Users can add artists to their SoundCloud followings from within the app, which the listing presents as a way to keep track of favorite artists. The listing also says every search is saved in the app, so profiles that caught the user's interest can be revisited later. The description does not state how long searches are kept or whether they can be deleted.

Listing details and limitations

The supplied listing shows version 3.2.0 and places the app in the Media & Video category. The minimum Android version and language fields are incomplete in the source, so this profile does not state them. The listing also does not specify whether a SoundCloud account is required to follow artists.
