Then swipe across the screen to enter the pin or passcode area
.

Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
3
Now, either enter a passcode or press and hold your thumb or fingerprint on the Home button to use the touch ID sensor
.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
4
This will take us to the Home screen, where in this demonstration we currently have the SoundCloud icon
.
This icon has an orange background with a cloud on it. The left side of the cloud is a series of music equalizer indicators up and down, for the music to show how high or low the notes are. The right side is the other part of the cloud, which also makes a heart shape.

Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
5
We love music, and we love SoundCloud, so let's give the SoundCloud icon a tap
.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
6
One tap will open SoundCloud, and the first thing we will see is the Home page
.

Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
7
The icons at the bottom include a search option in the middle, and at the far right, a profile head
.
That is what we want, the profile head.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
8
One press on this icon will give us the option to create an account or sign in
.

Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
9
To sign into an existing account, simply tap "Sign-in"
.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
10
Options to sign in with Facebook, Google, or an email address will appear
.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
11
Let's press "Cancel" at the top left corner because we are creating an account, not signing into one
.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
12
Now, tap on "Create account", and it will bring up the same screen as before when we tapped on "Sign-in"
.
However, this time it says "Create account" at the top. We are now creating an account rather than trying to sign in with one.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
13
We are going to use Facebook, so let's tap on "Sign up with Facebook"
.
This is going to open Facebook.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
14
However, before it opens Facebook we have to agree to the SoundCloud "Terms of Use", "Cookie Policy", and "Privacy Policy"
.
Like the majority of people, I don't normally read these. They all say more or less the same thing. If we don't accept it, which means pressing "Cancel", we can't use the application.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
15
Therefore, let's press "Continue" because we want to use SoundCloud
.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
16
Facebook will now open, and we will receive a notification that says, "SoundCloud will receive the following info
:
your public profile, friend list, email address and birthday".
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
17
We can "Edit the info" we provide by pressing on that link in blue
.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
18
It also tells us that "This does not let the app post to Facebook"
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
19
If we tap on "Edit the info you provide", we'll be given a list of things that can be changed
.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
20
This allows the "Friends list" to be changed, the "Email address" to be changed, and the "Birthday" to be changed
.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
21
However, it does not allow us to change our "Public profile" information
.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
22
We're not going to change anything in this demonstration, so let's just tap on "OK" at the bottom right
.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
23
Now, we will be taken to SoundCloud with our newly created account
.
We now have a "Collection". Our Collection allows us to add music and update additional information. This will be the first thing we'll see after we sign in, but we don't need that.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
24
We need to press on the profile option at the bottom right corner
.
Pressing on this icon will not do anything because we are already signed in.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
25
Instead, we are going to tap on the three dots, or the ellipsis, at the top right corner of the screen, which is the menu option
.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
26
On the next screen, we will see, "Your Profile", "Tell a Friend", and "Sign out"
.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
27
Let's tap on "Your Profile" at the top
.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
28
This will take us to our "Profile" page, and the interesting thing we'll notice is there's nothing we can really change currently
.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
29
Since there are no options to change on the current page, we need to go back by pressing the arrow at the top left corner
.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
30
There's still no other option to change profile stuff, so tap the arrow at the top left to go back another screen
.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
31
Now, we are back on the "Collection" screen
.
The reason our profile can't be changed is that SoundCloud pulls that information from Facebook. All of that information is tied in there, and if we want to change that, then we change it in Facebook. At that point, SoundCloud updates itself.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
32
Now that we have signed in, SoundCloud is going to be rather empty, so let's tap back on the Home button, which is the house icon at the bottom left of the screen
.
As you might recall from the beginning of this tutorial, there was a bunch of music and stuff there.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
33
However, if we tap on that Home button now, there is nothing in our "Stream"
.
We've personalized it, and we've added ourselves, but we haven't told SoundCloud anything about us. For that, we need to move on to our next tutorial where we discuss how to personalize and set up SoundCloud streams, so you can hear the latest music that you would like to have.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
