This wikiHow teaches you how to upload audio files from Google Drive to your Soundcloud account via iPhone or iPad. Soundcloud only allows you to select and upload files from Google Drive on a mobile browser. You cannot upload files that are stored on your device's storage space.
Step
Step 1. Open Safari browser on iPhone or iPad
The Safari icon looks like a blue compass in a white box.

Step 2. Visit the Soundcloud upload page
Type soundcloud.com/upload into your browser's address bar, then press the Go button on your keyboard.

It's in the toolbar, at the bottom of the screen. A pop-up menu will appear after that.
Step 4. Swipe the bottom row to the left and tap Request desktop site
