Same problem with 2024 Cadillac / Google infotainment system...

Installed latest updated app but Pandora still does not update properly in CarPlay. Using iPhone 16 Pro, iOS 18, and T-Mobile is my carrier.    This was supposed to be addressed with the latest upgrade 5 days ago but the problem still exists.

I have upgraded to iOS 18.1 and Pandora 2409.1 and still having same issues everyone else has been having. Deleted app and all the suggestions still don’t help. Another update would be great!

2022 Ram 1500 Laramie. Same issue as everyone else. Won’t load “Recents” and I get the same error message. Need this fixed!

@Jordan8 Welcome to Community!

Sorry to hear you're having troubles listening. Could you tell me a bit more about what you're experiencing?
1. Is this happening when you're listening on your mobile app? Or is it happening when you're connected to a different device or vehicle?
2. If you're listening on your vehicle, are you listening on your Carplay?
3. Is this happening when you're connected to Wi-Fi or cellular data?

I look forward to hearing back.

I listen on CarPlay. Ever since I uploaded ios18. When I hit the station on car it sometimes works for that station or switches to another station I have on the screen. Then I get that error message that there a problem loading content.

Apple ios-18 and Pandora ver 2408.1.1 and ver 2409.1 are having compatibility issues... Open a Pandora support ticket. Opened mine 10/4/2024.

(They will pass on info about issues and Thanks for your patience or something like that)

Open a Pandora Support ticket and cut out the "middle man" (Forum Moderators) and let Pandora know that more customers are reporting compatibility issues with ios-18 CarPlay... More Customers are getting frustrated and Pandora needs to put a PRIORITY on a Solution/Fix.
