Delete soundcloud buffered songs selectively

I am writing this blog in order to let you people know how to delete soundcloud buffered songs selectively. If you're a regular user of soundcloud on your android then this blog is a must read for you. I was caught in this problem when my soundcloud's cache gone upto 1GB and i was like in the middle of nowhere. If i select delete cache from soundcloud settings then all of the buffered songs will be deleted and i have to listen all of them again which is one kind of a hell of problem. On the other hand, many people like me don't know where does these all songs go when buffered? How to delete them selectively?

So i brought you a simple solution of this problem and you can delete any buffered song which will have no effect on other songs. It would be just like deleting songs from your memory card.

For this, you have to have any file explorer, i would recommend ES File Explorer and then go in to this app and search for "com.soundcloud". Search will give you results and it will be a folder naming com.soundcloud. Open this folder you will see two folders with name Cache & Files. Open files folder and there will be a stream folder. Open stream folder and you will see Complete and Incomplete folders. Here you're. Open complete folders for the complete buffered songs and open incomplete folder for incomplete buffered songs. Those songs are named randomly by the app, so you've to listen them one by one and delete whichever you want to.

Thats it!
Thank you :)
