Pandora Status Update (10/02/23):
Hi all!
Thank you for posting your experiences. We understand how frustrating this has been.
With the 2308.1.1 release, we believe we have fixed the issue where the app would begin to automatically play music after your phone restarts. If you haven't already, please be sure to update to 2308.1.1.
If you don't see this version available for your device yet, please be patient as we continue to monitor our release schedule.
++
For those that are on 2308.1.1, we would like additional help to clarify your experience.
Specifically, if audible music begins to play after rebooting your phone. In some cases you may see the player notification appear on your mobile device, however, there is no music playing. While this experience is similar, we'll need clarification if music is actually playing from the device.
If music does not play, can you let us know the following info:
- Is the player notification for Pandora appearing but the app is not actually open in the background where it can be closed?
- Is the player notification for Pandora appearing and the app is opened in the background?
If after the update music continues to play after restarting your phone, please post your update in this thread for us to pass along to our teams.
We appreciate your help and continued patience.

Something to note: I've seen a few posts regarding the "AutoStart" setting available for Premium subscribers. This issue is impacting all subscription tiers; adjusting this setting will not resolve the issue.
