Ideas: Include volume normalization

Subject: Inconsistent Song Volumes

Hello Pandora Team,

I’ve been frustrated by the significant volume differences between songs on Pandora. Constantly adjusting the volume takes away from the listening experience.

Other streaming services, including Spotify and Apple Music, offer volume normalization features, so I’m surprised Pandora doesn’t provide a similar option.

I enjoy Pandora and would prefer to keep using it, but I’ll probably stop if this isn’t fixed. Are there any plans to address this issue or introduce a volume normalization setting?

Hi @Jim42

Thanks for posting your feedback!

Pandora doesn't alter the music's equalization from how it appears on the original releases. As a result, some songs may sound louder than others.

We understand how this can affect your listening experience, and we appreciate you taking the time to share your suggestion. I've passed your feedback along to the appropriate teams.

We really appreciate your continued support of Pandora and your willingness to share ideas on how we can improve. Thanks again for being part of our community!
