How to download songs from SoundCloud for free

SoundCloud is a very popular music streaming app. It has latest releases of songs and you can make a playlist and also listen to them offline
But we also like to share to someone or play it or backup on a computer, flash drive, CD or other device.
So first you'll have to understand how SoundCloud works
When you play a song it starts buffering basically downloads the sound from the server and then stores it as a cache so when you a whole song is buffered you can play it offline afterwards
Now when you go offline the app assigns a cache file to the songs in your playlist
These cache are needed to be stored for offline listening
Now we need to extract the cache so we can use it as a normal mp3 file
All you need is a decent file manager
Now first you need listen the song and let it play the whole song it is important that the whole song is buffered or this wont work
Then navigate to

/storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.soundcloud.android/files/stream/Complete/
There all the cache is stored now copy the files somewhere else and then rename them with  (.mp3) extension
And there you have it you can now share the file or back it up or do anything you want
You can watch the tutorial here-

Remember not to rename the files in the cache itself or you won't be able to listen to that songs on the app offline
Then you'll have to again play it with internet
