Soundy: Stream Your Music from SoundCloud to Chromecast

SoundCloud users have been eagerly asking when Chromecast support will be added to the iOS app, but so far, there's been no official update from SoundCloud. Many iPhone users are left unable to stream their favorite SoundCloud tracks to Chromecast.

However, there's a solution! Enter Soundy, a full-featured SoundCloud audio player with built-in Chromecast support. Best of all, it's free and ready to use on your iPhone or iPad. With Soundy, you can seamlessly connect SoundCloud to your TV using Google Chromecast or AirPlay. In this tutorial, we'll introduce you to some of Soundy's fantastic features and guide you through the process of streaming your music from SoundCloud to Google Chromecast using your iOS device.

Step 1: Install Soundy

You can download Soundy directly from the App Store. It offers a range of useful features, including an equalizer, speed control, audio bookmarks, and a sleep timer. However, its standout feature is undoubtedly Google Chromecast support.

Step 2: Connect Your SoundCloud Account (Optional)

Once you've installed Soundy, you can choose to connect your SoundCloud account. This allows you to access your SoundCloud music across all your devices.

- Playlists tab contains your playlists and those created by other users that you've liked. You can switch between your own and liked playlists using the segment control at the top of the screen.

Soundy offers some nifty playback features, especially for audiobook enthusiasts. You can change playback speed from 0.2x to 2.0x and create audio bookmarks to save your playback position and resume listening from where you left off.

Step 6: Enjoy an Equalizer

One of Soundy's standout features is its 10-band equalizer with iTunes presets. You can fine-tune your audio experience by adjusting EQ frequency from -12 to +12 decibels. Choose from built-in presets like acoustic, bass booster, jazz, and more.
