Having issues adding variety to my already made stations... it goes black and kicks me out of Pandora. I have restarted my phone, sign out and even clear caches and some apps...

When I go to add variety station to any station list (I have at least 5 stations). It goes to a black screen or it says app is not working. I tried restarting phone, signing out, clear cache and clear data in Pandora. I even tried changing to spectrum mobile and my home internet. Never had a problem in 5 years.. is their a glitch I need to be resolved??

Add Variety

Within the last month, the pandora app has continually had an error message when trying to add any song/artist variety to any station of mine. As of this week, the add variety page won't even load. It just opens as a black screen. Anyone else having these troubles?

Suddenly Unable to Add Variety

SalCal — Tue, 09 Apr 2024 18:29:16 GMT

I'm suddenly not able to add variety to my stations. I click + to add variety and I'm taken to blank gray screen. Looks like someone reported this yesterday (April 8th 2024).

Never had this issue in several (over 5) years.

Please advise on fix as this appears to be known internal issue. If I can't add variety, it's not worth paying for this service.

Thanks!

Having the same issue with it going to a blank grey screen when I click on as variety to an existing station. I'm on a brand new Google Pixel 8 pro with the latest version of Android and Pandora installed. I even uninstalled and reinstalled the app to verify the problem.

I have a Samsung s23 ultra.

I paid for Pandora premium.

From what others are saying this is happening to everyone.

I just joined Pandora Premium last week and this issue started a couple days ago. NOT a good start.

No Longer able to add variety in Pandora app on android

BuddyB — Thu, 11 Apr 2024 20:07:51 GMT

For the last week or so I have been unable to add variety to any of my Pandora stations. I am using the pandora app on Android, and when I got to "station details" and click "add variety" it takes me to a blank gray screen where I can do nothing.

I see no answer for this problem that many have posted about. Please update and fix, Pandora.
