Hi @bswanson 

Welcome to community!

Sorry for any trouble with your Kindle Fire. Your experience is definitely unique, I haven't heard of this happening before.

Did you try any troubleshooting prior to reaching out, like clearing the app data and cache? If not, I would give that a try to see if it will help your overall experience. If you need steps on how to do this, let me know and I can send some over.

[bswanson]

yes i tried all that and it is the location permission cause i turned off all others ones and left that on and it stops and brings me back to kindle home page

Sorry to hear that didn't help, @bswanson.

I'm happy to pass this along to our engineering team for further review. Could you please provide your Kindle model, OS version and Pandora version.

Thank you!

Thanks for the info, @bswanson 

Are you able to update the Pandora app to the latest version on your Kindle? Pandora is currently on 2405.1. Let me know if you're able to update.

[bswanson]

yes i looked again that is the version i do have. so everything is up to date. also for some reason i cant activate free premium sessions. i follow the steps of playing a song and then an ad should play to activate it. the problem is when i play the song to active it nothing happens no ad plays. i asked about this before with no help or solution yet

Hey @bswanson 

Thanks for confirming your version.

For the Premium Session, when an ad doesn't appears, does the app freeze, or are you still able to move back to your stations?

[bswanson]

oh it still works just cant activate the free premium session

Hi @bswanson Got it. Sorry to hear that feature isn't working for you. I've included your experience with Premium Session in my report to our engineering team for further investigation. Thanks for your patience!
