Hi - I'm experiencing the same issue - only one song will play when I'm in Offline mode. I pay for the service. How do I get this to actually work as expected? I have an iPhone SE.

Pandora Update (05/24/2022): Hey everyone 👋
Thanks for reporting this issue and for your patience during this process.
After checking in with our engineering team, we now believe this issue has been fixed. If you're still having trouble, you may need to sign out and sign back in to notice the changes. 🎧

Pandora Update (05/25/2022): Thanks for your feedback around this. It appears that some folks are still experiencing this issue after signing out / signing in. Other folks have reported that rebooting their device and uninstalling / reinstalling has helped.
First, I recommend rebooting the device by shutting it down entirely, then turning it back on and trying Pandora again.
If you're still having issues, try uninstalling and reinstalling the app (not to worry, we'll keep track of your profile and collection for you).* To do that:
Let me know how it goes. 🎧
*Please note: Pandora Premium and Premium Family listeners may need to re-download some of their offline content after reinstalling the app. Pandora Plus users, however, should receive that offline content again automatically. If you have any trouble with your offline stations after reinstalling, please let us know.
@polikat88 Is it possible that this might be occurring because there is not enough storage on your device? Pandora will never use the last 500MB of storage on your device, so we will only download as many stations as we can before we hit that limit.
If it doesn't appear to be storage related, I'd recommend disabling the offline listening feature and re-enabling it, which will reset the download process. Then, make sure to keep Pandora in the foreground of your device while the download completes.
To do that from a mobile device:
If you continue to have trouble, please send over a screenshot showing the status of the downloads:
Let me know how it goes.
After iOS 15.5 update my pandora premium will only download one song per station trying to find a solution.

Hey there, @wendell_Hatfiel. 👋
Thanks so much for posting about this.

If it doesn't appear to be storage related, I'd recommend signing out of the app and signing back in, which will reset the download process. Then, make sure to keep Pandora in the foreground of your device while the download completes.

If you continue to have trouble, check the download icon for the content you are attempting to download. The two rotating arrows indicate that the content is still in the download process and the highlighted downward pointing arrow means the content has successfully downloaded.
If the icon is not highlighted, try downloading the content again and keep the app in the foreground while the offline music downloads. Keep in mind that stations and large playlists take a longer time to download.
Lastly, if you are having trouble downloading stations, try downloading a single track for offline listening to see if that works.
I hope this helps. Let me know how it goes. 🎧
I am having this issue too! Help! I have re downloaded multiple times, uninstalled and reinstalled the app. removed a ton of apps and have half my phones 64GB empty before doing that. I have turned my phone off and on. I don't know what else to do. The last 3 days I have been fighting this thing about to cancel and get spotify. which **ahem** bc I have had pandora since I was a teen.
I’m having the same problem, and I’ve tried everything pandora recommends. I’ve logged out and back in, downloaded, redownloaded, tried different stations, checked my storage and tried switching from WiFi to cellular and yet it still only downloads 1 song from each station each time. So far pandora premium has been very disappointing
I'm having the same problem. I tried all the suggestions and still only one song will play on all my downloaded stations.
I’ve signed out and back in, I’ve deleted the app and reinstalled, I’ve tried everything that I know and read it still only downloads only one song per station.
I’ve supported Pandora since the beginning of their time, haven’t crossed platforms and am adamant about this. But, with this current issue (as stated above, via other humans experiencing the same scenario), I am two seconds away from copying my music and switching platforms. As of the last two years, Pandora has had a plethora of glitches and mishaps - the occurrences have exponentially increased within the last (almost) six months of 2022… with the price increase for the account and the influx of recurring problems, at this point, I don’t see the value. I’ll invest my money and my energy into a reciprocal and fluid platform, if this doesn’t change within a minuscule amount of time.

I , thoroughly, appreciate the prompt and initiative response! I feel as if a screenshot isn’t going to accomplish anything, although, I find a screen recording to be of more aid in conveying the problems I’m running into. I’m able to do that if necessary. The following is in accordance to your request of information:
• iPhone XR
• iOS 15.5
• 2203.1
I have been experiencing this over WiFi and cellular data.
I can usually find a way to work around the glitches and get Pandora to work for me but, recently, it seems as if there is complete blockage in updates and downloads.
Thanks, again, for your help.
Thanks for following up with that information, @bodhisattvayin.
I've created a ticket with our engineering team and passed along your report so they can further investigate.
We appreciate your patience with this in the meantime!
I have an iPhone 11 Pro Max
AT&T
Version 2203.1
there is nothing to screenshot it downloads like it always has but when you’re offline it plays a song and keeps repeating it no matter how many times you try to skip to the next
No I still have 142 GB on my phone
Thanks for following up with that information, @wendell_Hatfiel.
Your feedback has now been added to the ticket we have open with the engineers who are looking into this.
We appreciate your patience in the meantime!

I’m not sure how to upload a screenshot on this platform but picture you have a station, it says the station is downloaded for offline listening, but it will only play one song no matter how many times you press skip or next.
Thanks for getting back to me with that, @Octo_Puss_01.
