"Someone Else is Listening" Message:
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.

Hello! I was wondering if there was any way to log out of your Pandora account on all devices? Or is there a way to see where your account is logged in?
@TwhataMusPrime Nice to see you around the community.

I've changed my password about 10 times, I've tried contacted Pandora and it doesn't work. Seems like we are screwed.
Hey, @TIMEADS1990. 👋
Sorry for any trouble this has caused. Unfortunately, I'm not seeing that you've been in touch with our User Support team to help out with this issue.
I've gone ahead and created a support case for you from my end. Someone from our team will contact you via email to assist with this issue.
Thanks so much for your patience!
So if support staff sends you an email saying that no concurrent sessions were logged why then does it continue to happen? I sent a screen shot of the error code but pretty sure that’s gunna be not super helpful. Guess it s time to wait days for another useless response 🙂
How do I stop another person from useing my account I have changed my password multiple times but my account is auto logged in on the other device or should I just allow this account to expire an creat a new account
mod edit: changing title for clarity
Hi @MrNiceGuy42021 Thanks for posting to community!
Since you've already changed your password, I've reached out to our User Support team to remove all the devices associated with your Pandora account. This will automatically sign you out everywhere including any devices you currently have, so you will need to sign back in once this change takes effect. Please be patient as this may not happen instantaneously.
It is not possible to remove devices on your end at this time, but I recommend visiting our Feature Request board with this feedback. You can find the current post here, if you'd like to take a look. Don't forget to vote (❤️) on the ideas you want to see.
Hope this helped. Thanks for being part of community! 🎧
I just got the same thing this morning. I turned on my computer desktop Apple MacPro and opened Pandora. I got both a voice alert and a message alert saying someone else is listening to your Pandora account, let them listen or let me listen. I have the Premium account so that my wife can listen and have her own Playlists but she was talking on her phone and had not been listening to anything.
So why am I getting these messages, this is not the first time this has happened when I am the only one listening.
I just turned on my Apple MacPro desktop computer and clicked on my Pandora tab to listen to some music early this morning. A woman's voice proclaimed that someone else was listening to Pandora on my account. A large window popped up with the same message and to let them listen or let me listen.
I immediately checked my phone but it wasn't turned on yet, I have Premium so my wife has her own account but she didn't have it turned on.
So why am I getting these alerts, this is not the first time it has happened. After reading some of the other posts I'm not the only one with this problem.
However I don't see any fixes coming from Pandora.
@daleslad I moved your post to this thread since you are experiencing a similar issue.
Check out @AlyssaPandora 's message for more information on why that error message is popping up, as well as how to prevent it from appearing again.
Thanks for posting to the community!
Hi @daleslad 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 simultaneous streams warning may have been tripped by accident, which can happen from time to time when switching from one device to another. If that's what happened, you can go ahead and disregard that message.
However, if you're concerned that this message might have been triggered by an unauthorized user, we can take some steps to ensure the protection of your account. Please note, this will require signing you out of all of your devices. It's more effective than simply changing your password, but may mean a brief interruption in your service.
If you'd like to take this step, I can reach out to our User Support team and ask them to remove all the devices associated with your Pandora account.
Let me know.

This is the second time in 3 days that this has happened, just few minutes ago as I drove into my driveway and got the " Someone is listening" message again. I immediately went into my house and checked my two other devices that I use Pandora on. Neither one of those devices were playing anything. This has to be a Pandora issue, all you have to do is to read how many others are experiencing the same issue as I am that do not have any other devices playing.
Please fix this problem instead of just replying with that worthless link for checking devices or eliminating them all together.
I find this to be a very difficult Community Support site to find anything. My original posts just seem to disappear into thin air. There doesn't seem to be any index of posts by category at least none I can find. It seem that the only way to find something is by using a search of the whole communities posts and hope you get close.
It would be nice is you could find a post by category and the date it was posted.
I have to Choose a Label in order to send this post but there are only 3 labels to choose from and none of them is relevant to my issue.
Hi, @daleslad. 👋
I apologize for the continued trouble you've experienced. I completely understand your frustration.
