If your device is running an earlier operating system version than the minimum required, you'll need to update your operating system to install or reinstall the latest version of Pandora.
If your device cannot be updated to a supported operating system version, it will no longer be compatible with the latest version of the Pandora app.
Please note: In some cases, Pandora may continue to function on an unsupported device or operating system. However, continued functionality is not guaranteed. Future updates to Pandora or related services may impact functionality on unsupported devices.
Public iOS, iPadOS & watchOS Beta Software
Pandora does not officially support public beta versions of iOS, iPadOS, or watchOS.
While Pandora may work as expected on beta software, beta releases can introduce instability, unexpected behavior, or compatibility issues that are outside of Pandora's control.
We appreciate your feedback and patience as Apple continues to refine its beta software ahead of public release.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: If I'm unable to update to iOS, iPadOS or tvOS 18, or watchOS 11, can I still listen to Pandora?
A: If Pandora is already installed on your device, it may continue to function as long as the app remains installed. However, continued functionality on an unsupported operating system is not guaranteed. We recommend avoiding deleting or uninstalling the app.
Q: What happens if I delete the app or need to restore my device?
A: If your iPhone or iPad is running a version earlier than iOS or iPadOS 18, your Apple Watch is running a version earlier than watchOS 11, or your Apple TV is running a version earlier than tvOS 18, you will not be able to download the current version of Pandora from the App Store.
Pandora on Apple TV also requires an Apple TV HD (4th generation) or later. Apple TV (1st, 2nd, and 3rd generation) devices are not compatible with the current Pandora app.
Older versions of the Pandora app are no longer available for download.
Q: Will I continue to receive new features and improvements?
A: No. New features, enhancements, and fixes are delivered through Pandora app updates, which are only available on supported devices and operating systems. Devices running versions earlier than iOS or iPadOS 18, tvOS 18 or watchOS 11, will not receive future Pandora app updates.
