What you get
Formats and qualities
MP3 at 320 or 128 kbps converted from SoundCloud’s stream, or the original audio file when the artist allows downloads.
- MP3
- 128 kbps
SoundCloud streams most tracks at around 128 kbps. FetchBolt takes the best stream available and converts it to MP3, so the file plays in every music app, car stereo and DJ program.
When an artist turns on downloads for a track, the original upload is offered too, often in higher quality than the stream.

Troubleshooting and safety
The download doesn’t work. What can I do?
Check that the audio plays for everyone: private posts, age-restricted content and anything that needs you to sign in can’t be downloaded, and FetchBolt tells you if a track was removed or is region-locked. Copy the link with the app’s Share button and paste it on its own. If SoundCloud is limiting traffic for a moment, wait a minute and try again. Large files take longer to prepare, and the button shows the progress while they do.
Is FetchBolt safe to use?
FetchBolt runs in your browser: no app, no extension and no sign-up, and it never asks for your SoundCloud password. Files use temporary storage for preparation and delivery; hosting backups may retain copies. We don’t keep a download history. Our Privacy Policy explains cleanup and backups. The only buttons that download anything are the ones in the FetchBolt card, next to each quality.
Step-by-step guides
SoundCloud to MP3 FAQ
Does converting to 320 kbps improve the sound?
No. It keeps everything the stream contains, but can’t add detail that isn’t there. Pick 128 kbps for a smaller file that sounds the same.
Can I convert SoundCloud Go+ tracks?
No. Tracks that need a subscription to play in full can’t be downloaded.
Do on.soundcloud.com short links work?
Yes. Paste the link the app gives you and FetchBolt follows it to the track.
Is FetchBolt free?
Yes. FetchBolt is free to use with no sign-up and no download limits for normal use. It’s supported by ads.
Do I need to install anything?
No. FetchBolt runs in your browser on iPhone, Android, Windows, Mac and Linux.
Do you keep the videos I download?
We store files temporarily to prepare and deliver downloads. Uncollected ready files expire after 10 minutes, while active transfers may continue longer. Hosting backups may retain copies after cleanup. We don’t keep a download history. See our Privacy Policy for details.
