Hey there, @Cricketziggy. 👋

Thanks so much for posting about this.

Unfortunately, we do not offer a separate volume booster for Pandora. The volume is controlled by using the volume buttons on the side of your iOS device.

We don't alter music equalization on Pandora from how it appears on the original releases, unlike terrestrial radio, which compresses the entire broadcast. As a result, some songs sound louder (or lower) than others. However, we do use the Replay Gain technique that encodes a fixed volume adjustment into the mp3/mp4 header so that the actual player (web browser, phone or device) can adjust volume just as the track begins playing.

If there are vast differences, it could also be due to different instrumentation or arrangements causing different apparent levels of volume where the actual decibel levels are the same.

If you'd like to see a volume booster on Pandora, I would recommend creating a feature request here.

If you do use hearing aids with bluetooth capabilities, you may be able to connect your phone to them. Feel free to let me know and I can help with that.

I hope this information is helpful.

@Booshcoco2007, I understand your trying to help, but please be kinder. My mother was slightly deaf and she explained to me that it’s better hearing with headphones on but not with speakers. It’s like a car window. When some ones speaking you roll down the window (like the headphones). But when the window is rolled up the voice is muffled (like the speakers). Next time, please be kinder.

I have this same question! No one who answered has addressed it yet. Axen and I are both looking for a volume booster app separate from Pandora that works with Pandora.

I've downloaded 12 volume booster apps on my iPhone and not one of them work with Pandora - they only work with Apple Music or songs I have downloaded myself onto my iPhone. Where they list the "music services" they work with, Pandora is never one of them.

Does anyone know of a volume booster app that does work with Pandora?

Thank you!
