Thank you to everyone who has shared ideas and participated in our Community over the years. On August 4, 2026, the Community Ideas Board will be retired. If you have questions or would like to share your thoughts about this change, please visit this thread to join the discussion.
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.
I've updated the status of your post to Open Ideas so other community members can vote and add their thoughts as well.
Thanks again for being part of the Pandora Community! 🎵
