Hi @Drakov
Thanks for stopping by the community!
Since you’re a Pandora Plus subscriber, you can listen offline, but it works a little differently than downloading specific stations on demand.
Pandora takes care of your offline listening by automatically downloading your most-listened stations. This includes:
- Your top three most-listened stations
- Your Thumbprint Radio
Downloads and updates to your offline stations can happen while you’re actively listening. Though the iOS may prioritize battery optimization or system needs during this time. While you won’t be able to choose a specific station to download, your most-listened to stations should be available when you’re offline.
If you’re curious which stations those might be, you can either manually switch to Offline Mode in the app, or check on the web:
- From your favorite browser, visit Pandora
- Head to My Collection
- Select Stations
- Sort by Most Listened
Having trouble with offline content?
If you're having trouble with your offline content on your iPhone, a quick reset can help. Start by uninstalling and reinstalling the app, this will clear out any existing downloads you may have and give you a fresh start.
After that, I recommend:
- Plugging your phone into a power source
- Keeping Pandora open and in the foreground (you can still listen while it downloads)
You'll want to be sure to prevent the app from being backgrounded, this helps prevent iOS from prioritizing other tasks and slowing down the download process.
Want more control over your offline content?
If you’re looking to choose exactly what’s available offline, you may want to check out Pandora Premium. Premium gives you the ability to download specific stations, playlists, and albums for offline listening. You can find more details about Premium from our help page.
Hope this helped!
