Please make app compatible with wear os, especially the new galaxy watch ultra.

The APK packages for Samsung don't seem to be that different from the ones created for some of the car infotainment systems. Why cant they just use this as a shell for Bluetooth or wifi direct data transfer, much like they do for these? It would simply be a glorified web applet with Bluetooth controls and a simple scroll interface for stations. I don't think anyone is asking for a full web version here. We don't need to build stations on our phone, just a select, pause, play, next, thumbs up, thumbs down, and volume. Most of this is native to the watch already. You just need to pipe the info from your HTML5 site with an authenticated login. All of these are already on the phone to start.

I am pretty sure it has to do with contracts. I think there are deals
signed with Spotify and Android.

Me & my wife are10-year Pandora veterans. I thought for sure it was 2024 and Pandora would be supported on her new Galaxy Android watch.  2022 is was and now it's not?

Please help us out here...  We're Pandora and SiriusXM Subscribers.  Please don't make us turn to the Dark (green) Side.

well.

Bah. Youtube Music. Included with youtube premium, if you wanna. Spotify is for kids that need to be told what to listen to. IMO. Pass on fisher price music service.

Can someone from Pandora chime in on this? Seems like pretty consistent feedback/posts on the topic.

Like everyone else, I'm going to be forced to switch to spotify in order to use my watch. I hate spotify.  Pandora, it's 2024!!

I see pandora never responds to these but anyways.

As a long time galaxy user and long time pandora premium customer. I just don't understand how Spotify has had a stand alone app for the galaxy watch and pandora refuses. I've seen multiple ignored post.

I have stayed with pandora since the beginning which is why I haven't switched, but I am noticing the inconvenience of not being able to use my watch for pandora.

Its obvious at this point it will never happen. It's time to cancel premium and switch like I should have years ago.

Again, if you read a lot of these posts, they point out that it is most
likely a contract issue. I'm pretty sure that Spotify has a contract issue
with Samsung and that locks Pandora out so it's not something that Pandora
seems to have control over. At least that is the consensus. Otherwise it
wouldn't make any sense. I personally will never use spotify. I've had
friends that used it and had to deal with it several times and I hate that
service.
