The ‘Add to Music App’ feature gives music fans the ability to save the songs they discover on TikTok to their preferred music streaming service. Since its global roll out in 2024, the feature has generated over a billion track saves on supported music streaming services, per TikTok’s data.
The new integration begins rolling out today, making it simple to save TikTok tracks to a playlist on SoundCloud. The launch coincides with the debut of ‘Move Your Music,’ a new SoundCloud feature that makes it easy to transfer music libraries including liked songs and playlists.
That feature allows SoundCloud users to import their favorites from Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, Tidal, Deezer, and Amazon Music. Now with ‘Add to Music App’ on TikTok, music discovery centered around social media can also be added to SoundCloud.
“SoundCloud has always been the go-to platform for discovering what’s next in music, from emerging artists to breakout genres,” says Emmy Lovell, SoundCloud’s Global Head of Music. “Partnering with TikTok makes it easier than ever for fans to save the songs they love and stay connected with the artists behind them. This integration helps turn casual listeners into lifelong superfans while strengthening our commitment to fueling the next generation of music culture.”
‘Add to Music App’ appears as a button that says ‘Add Song’ next to a track name at the bottom of any TikTok video on the ‘For You’ feed. It invites users to save the track to the digital streaming provider (DSP) of their choice. The first time a user presses the button, they can choose to save it to SoundCloud or other supported services. Users can choose to switch their preferred music streaming service at any times in the Settings of TikTok.
