Android: App tries to connect to devices other than my headphones

oppland — Tue, 18 Jun 2024 17:32:27 GMT

I've been using Pandora for years with my bluetooth headphones. In the last few weeks, Pandora keeps trying to connect to random other devices (TV, google nest, etc). Is there a way to stop that? I just want to listen on my headphones.

Hi there, @oppland. 👋

Based on your message, it sounds like your phone is attempting to connect to other nearby devices. The Pandora app doesn't control which devices to connect to when streaming.

I would recommend visiting your phone's Bluetooth settings and make sure the devices aren't set to automatically connect. This could be the cause of the issue you're experiencing. If that doesn't help, you could try unpairing and then, repairing your devices to see if this resolves the issue.

I hope this information is helpful. 🎧
