No longer a gap between songs

FleetFeet — Mon, 04 May 2026 13:12:54 GMT

Why is everyone saying there is no crossfade feature in Pandora when all my songs are overlapping and have been for months. I can't find how to stop this. The songs play over too much and you can't even tell what song you are listening to during the crossfade. I want to go back to the gap between songs because I'm sick of not hearing the end and beginning of a song because they are overlapping too much.

@FleetFeet Thanks for flagging this — I can understand how frustrating it would be to have songs overlapping to the point where you can’t clearly hear the endings and beginnings.

Pandora doesn’t currently have a crossfade feature, so what you’re describing definitely isn’t expected behavior. We’d like to take a closer look and figure out what might be causing this on your end.

Could you tell me a bit more about what you’re experiencing?

Does this happen with every song on your station, or only between certain tracks?
When did you first start noticing this?

Also, it would really help to know what you’re listening on:

If you’re on a computer:

Are you using a Mac or Windows computer?
Are you listening through our website or the desktop app?
If on the web, which browser are you using?

If you’re on a mobile device:

What is the make and model of your device?
What operating system version is it running?
(If applicable) who is your carrier?

Once we have a bit more detail, we’ll be able to dig in and help get your listening experience back to normal.

My apologies. I listen to both Pandora and Apple Music all the time and now I realize the cross fade is happening when I play my playlist on Apple Music but not when playing my music on Pandora. Thank you for your response and making me pay closer attention to when this is happening. I will address it through my settings on Apple Music. Thank you.
