@Lisahughes234 Nice to see you around the Community. 👋

If you are receiving the message, "Your Pandora Account is currently playing on another device," or "Someone else is listening," then more than one device is streaming from your account at the same time.

While your Pandora account can be logged into as many devices as you like, they can't be playing at the same time. Regardless of your subscription level, the revenue from one Pandora account only covers the cost of one stream from one device. As long as you press pause on one device before you listen to Pandora on another, you should be fine.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++

If you and your wife are looking for a subscription where the both of you can use Pandora at the same time, then I recommend checking out the Premium Family plan.

With that subscription, you can create a separate account for your wife using her own personal email address, and then add her to the plan.

That way, the both of you can stream your own separate accounts on your separate devices at the same time.

You can find more information on the Premium Family plan here.

Hope this helps!

@forest2000 I'd be happy to help with any questions you have, but I will need additional information to do so.

Can you explain your issue a bit further? The more details you're able to provide, the better equipped I'll be to help.

I look forward to hearing back.
