SoundCloud has unveiled a new notification system designed to transform how users connect with their favorite artists. This update promises a more personalized and engaging experience, ensuring users never miss a beat from the musicians they love most.
The platform now offers an ideal balance between keeping users informed and avoiding notification fatigue by intelligently curating alerts. This approach prioritizes updates from frequently listened-to artists, effectively streamlining the music discovery process.
To harness the full potential of this feature, users should update their SoundCloud APP and adjust their device settings. The new system introduces a nuanced approach to following artists. Users can navigate to their favorite artist’s profile, click “follow,” and tap the bell icon. They can then choose between “All New Releases” for comprehensive updates or “Personalized” for a curated selection. This level of customization allows users to tailor their notification experience to their unique preferences.
Recognizing the diverse needs of its user base, SoundCloud has implemented an automatic system for those following numerous artists. This intelligent feature ensures notifications from users’ top 50 followed artists, while providing personalized alerts for others.
