Android Auto: Pandora + Navigation

How do you activate drive mode so you can navigate through Pandora while keeping your GPS on the screen?

Hi @Sharp1987 

Welcome to community!

Once you've connected to Android Auto, tap the Google Maps or Waze icon in Android Auto and enter your destination and start navigation.

Once navigation is active, you should see minimal media controls, like pause/play or skip buttons, usually at the bottom or side of the screen.

If Pandora isn't already active, tap the music icon (headphone/music note icon) visible on the Android Auto interface and select Pandora from the available music apps.

While navigating, you can use voice commands to control playback or manually tap the Pandora icon visible on-screen. A small overlay or split-screen appears with Play/Pause, Skip or Station Selection. Tap the Pandora app icon again for expanded controls, which lets you browse recently used stations or playlists.

Note: Android Auto prioritizes safety, so some controls (e.g., searching extensively for new stations) may be limited during driving. 

Hope this helps!

Use your mobile device only when conditions allow and as permitted by applicable law.
