Controls for SoundCloud is a new jailbreak tweak that enhances the SoundCloud experience on iPhone by adding Activator integration and media controls on the Lock screen and Control Center. 

The simple extension adds a menu of options that can be configured through the Settings app, including a toggle switch for the aforementioned interface controls and Activator actions for liking and reposting tracks.

SoundCloud allows users to like audio tracks they enjoy or find interesting, and the platform also has a reposting feature that shares the track with a user’s stream of followers. Controls for SoundCloud simply makes these actions more convenient.

SoundCloud is an online streaming music service, although its focus is less on record label songs — like Spotify, Rdio or Beats Music — and more towards independent artists, remixes and other originally-created sounds.

Overall, Controls for SoundCloud is a simple jailbreak tweak that delivers useful functionality for SoundCloud users with an iPhone. As the tweak is free, you have nothing to lose by trying it out.

Controls for SoundCloud is free on Cydia in the BigBoss repo.
