Hi @puckiso playlists are currently a feature of Pandora Premium. If you are currently not a Premium subscriber, you would need to upgrade to receive this feature. You can check out @ErickPandora post here for more information about the different subscription levels and the features they offer.
If you are currently a Premium subscriber and would like to create a custom playlist, you can use the following steps:
From a Mobile Device:
To create a new playlist, go to My Collection.
My Collection shows album art for all of your recently played tracks, but also allows you to sort your "Added" content – whether that might be radio stations, albums or songs.
To add a playlist, filter your Added content by tapping the downward arrow (or "carat") which appears below the album art.
Select Playlist from the menu.
Next, tap + New Playlist. Enter a name for your playlist and tap Next. Finally, use the search bar to find your favorite songs or albums to add.
Keep in mind that you can also create new playlists from the Now Playing screen, or by searching for a particular track. Just tap the ellipsis (...) below the album art, and indicate whether you'd like to add the track to a new playlist or an existing one.
Once you've created a playlist, you can harness the power of Pandora to recommend additional music you might want to add.
From the Web:
There are a number of ways to create playlists.
First, from your My Collection page, filter your collection by Playlists and select + Create Playlist.
You can also do this from the Now Playing screen by clicking the ellipsis (three dots) below the album art to reveal a sub-menu. Hover over Add to Playlist and select New Playlist.
Finally, you can create a playlist from most songs or albums by clicking that ellipsis as well.
Thanks for being part of community! 🎧
You're in luck! Pandora now offers 4 different tiers of service:

The topic states "how do i create a play list" but there is still no direct answer on how to do it. Why does this have to be so difficult. A simple step by step set of directions would solve the problem!!

Hope this helps. Let me know if you have any other questions. 🎧
The only reason I signed up is because it said I can personalize my playlist. If I can’t I’ll cancel our subscription. Thx
@foxfamily238 Nice to see you around the community. 👋🏽
As long as you are currently upgraded to Pandora Premium, then you should be able to follow the instructions provided in the accepted solution to this post to create a new customized playlist.
If you continue to experience issues with this, let me know and I can escalate you over to our support team for further assistance.
This stinks they took that away from us after we had the feature. makes me think of changing.
@dstruve Nice to see you around the community.
It looks like your account is currently upgraded to Pandora Plus - not Pandora Premium.
To clarify, the ability to create customized playlists has never been an option with a Pandora Plus account. Pandora Premium was introduced as a new subscription tier to give our listeners the ability to do this.
Were you having trouble creating new radio stations to your account?
Let me know.
Just got on this and trying to figure it out. First thing is that tech and i are sworn enemies. Lol! Trying to make a playlist and am having trouble stopping songs to switch to another.
@Geoff Nice to see you around the community! 👋🏽
Creating customized playlists:
Check out the accepted solution to this thread for instructions on how you can create a new playlist from either your mobile device or a computer.
Stopping songs to switch to another:
Have you tried pressing the Pause button, searching for a new song, and then pressing play on the track you just searched for?
If that isn't what you were referring to, can you please provide me with a little more information about what you need help with?
Thanks for your patience.

Thanks for the info.
Always happy to help, @Pb57! 😁
