We’re aware of an issue that may be affecting Google Home, Nest, and Chromecast. Our teams are investigating and working to resolve it. We’ll share updates here as they become available. Thanks for your patience.
I can definitely understand the appeal of being able to give a song a thumbs up directly from Search. One thing to keep in mind is that thumbs are designed as feedback for your stations, they help Pandora learn what you do and don't want to hear and influence future station playback.
Because of that, a thumbs up is a bit different from simply marking a song as one you enjoy outside of a station experience. That said, we appreciate you sharing your thoughts on how you'd like to interact with music in Pandora.
