Thanks for the response. I was able to get the Beta profile and download WatchOS 6.2.5. I can also confirm this fixes the problem.

@Thekitch2681 I moved your post to this thread as this is a known issue that our engineers are currently investigating. 

Could you tell me a bit more about your iPhone device so I can pass along your information to them as well?

I'll need:

  • iOS version: (Settings > General > About > Version)
  • Pandora version: (Pandora > Profile tab > Settings gear & scroll to the bottom of the screen)

Thanks for your help with this.

Having the same problem. Was on the phone with Apple support two different times, over a hour each time. Unpaired my watch, set it up as new, uninstalled thePandora app and nothing worked. Love listening to my Pandora stations while jogging but i’m unable to because it crashes only when i’m connected to my watch, not through my phone.

It’s not for an iPhone it’s for an iwatch series 5...it’s running the IOS 6.2 for the operating system. The pandora version on the watch is 2003.2...hopefully someone can help me get Pandora working on my watch because as of now all it does is force quit when I select a station so therefore doesn’t work..:

I recently updated my series 5 Apple Watch to OS 6.2.  Now the app crashes every time I try to play a station.  My watch does not require my phone to connect to web, or calls.  It is a stand alone device.  I can only listen to downloaded songs when I'm accessing Pandora on the watch.  The minute I try to play a station, it crashes.  I've unloaded the app and reinstalled it numerous time.  I've turned the watch off and on numerous times.
