Expanding Android device access to support 100 million App downloads
We expanded SoundCloud to work across all Android systems.
The story
As Soundcloud’s audience grew, they needed to expand the accessibility of the SoundCloud app across various Android device types:
- LargeScreens
- Wearables
- Android Auto
But, each device type is diverse and has unique characteristics to take into account.
Think-it’s role
Think-it dove directly into the development of the SoundCloud core app, actively engaging in exploring and implementing tailored libraries. This meant collaborating directly with specialized Google teams dedicated to each device category. Notably, our team had a public contribution to resolving a bug within one of these libraries.
Why it mattered
The SoundCloud app is now available and responsive on: Android Phones, WearOS, Android TV, Automotive OS, Android Auto, and large screens and foldable devices.
