Whenever I have the Pandora app open my Apple Maps directions go from spoken audio to dings. I have my map set to normal voice audio. I have tried all different volume options, checked the general settings on both apps, and confirmed that Apple Maps is giving spoken audio directions whenever Pandora is closed. Is there a way to fix this? I can’t really listen to Pandora if I need to hear my directions!
mod edit: changed title for clarity
I’m having this exact same problem one instance of direction followed by beeps while using Pandora. Connected via Bluetooth to a 2017 jeep grand Cherokee. It worked fine until several months ago. I’ve been through all of the settings recommended in the string and the installation with no help. Failure coincided either with an update to maps or pandora. Toggling the speaker options in maps will trigger one voice instruction, then it reverts back to beeps. Voice instructions are successful when audio source is switched to radio, sourced from the Navi.
I think the issue is with apple maps. The previous options under the speaker icon were more robust, with volume levels.
Hey @BigScaryQueer Thanks for posting to community!
I tried to replicate this on my end and wasn't able to. Would you mind uninstalling and reinstalling to see that will help.
To do that:
*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.
Let me know how it goes.
Hello! Uninstalling has done nothing. This problem has carried over from several iPhones. Not just my latest one.
Hi there, @BigScaryQueer. 👋
Thanks so much for sharing your experience. I'm very sorry to hear that this issue is still occurring.
I’ve enabled a trace on your Pandora account to help us better understand what’s happening. For this trace to be useful, I'll need you to run through our troubleshooting steps once more. I understand how inconvenient this may be, but this information will be helpful in case we need to report this over to our engineering team.
Let me know how it goes. Appreciate you sticking with me on this! 🎧
I’m having the exact same problem. Did you ever find a solution??
@mattocp Were you able to run through the suggested troubleshooting steps yet?
If not, please give those a shot, and let us know if you continue to experience issues with this.
I’m having the same issue. I finally narrowed it down to Pandora last night. I have followed the steps. Still happening.

Thanks for working with me on this. 🤝
Is there a remedy to this yet? It happens to me as well.
Hey there, @reginaldkson. 👋
First, I would recommend checking your settings.
Select your desired volume level. You have four options.
Which volume level are you using? If you are not using "No Voice", please try running through these troubleshooting steps to see if it resolves the issue.

If the issue persists, could you share your device details?
Let me know. 🎧
Yes. It is not the volume settings. It works well when I'm not using Apple Maps.
It pings (no voice) when using Apple Maps.
IPhone 11, Tmob, iOS 14.6, Pandora version 2105.1
Thank you for those details, @reginaldkson. I've let our engineering team know about this on your behalf. We appreciate your patience while they investigate. 🎧
