Submit Check

A Check is your rating for an album. Open any album, submit a Check, and it gets added to your profile and shows up in your followers feeds. By default you submit a single overall score out of 10.

Advanced mode

Toggle Advanced mode to rate an album across five individual dimensions: Performance, Substance, Production, Versatility, and Sentiment. Each dimension is optional. SoundCheckd calculates the overall from your dimension scores.

Write a review

Every Check can include an optional written review of up to 500 characters. Add context, a hot take, or anything else you want to say about the album.

Compare

If you and a friend have both checked the same album, you can open their Check to see a side-by-side breakdown of every score. Useful for spotting exactly where your opinions diverge.

Nudge

From any album page you can send a nudge to a friend who has not checked it yet. They get a notification prompting them to submit their rating.

Follow requests

If your account is private, new followers need your approval. Incoming requests appear at the top of the Activity tab where you can accept or reject them.
