When I launch pandora.app, or open pandora.com in my web browser, my selected playlist/station begins playing automatically. This is often embarrassing and/or disturbing, as it is often inappropriate for me to play music out loud in those situations. I don't want the music to start until I click the play button. (that is, after I have put in my ear buds, and switched audio from speakers to ear buds). Also, sometimes I just want to search for a playlist or station, without listening to anything.
Please add an option in the web app and the desktop app that allows me to set the option to NOT auto-start playing music. Thank you.
mod edit: changed title for clarity
Hi, @scottzc. 👋
Thanks for your feedback around this. I completely understand where you're coming from.
At this time, disabling playback upon launching Pandora on your web browser isn't a feature. However, if you download the Pandora Desktop App, the music doesn't start playing unless you click on the play button.
