iOS: Podcast collection has disappeared

Yesterday I noticed all of mine have disappeared. 9– 20–2022. All of my podcast are gone! Not one thing in the slot. My music appears to be there but none of my podcast. I have I have been using this for years if I have to start over I’m saying goodbye to Pandora and hello to Spotify. 

Another thing that doesn’t work right is when I’m in my yard mowing and I have my Wi-Fi on my phone and my data is option center on, I can never finished a song it goes blank and starts buffering. I may be 20 feet from my house.

Hi Everyone 👋

We believe this issue has been resolved with the recent release of Pandora App version 2211.1. Please try updating the Pandora app using these steps:

  • Open the App Store application.
  • Tap your Apple ID icon in the top right corner.
  • Scroll down to the Pandora app. If an update is available, there will be an Update icon.

Tip: If no update is available, it will say Open to the right of the Pandora icon. *Keep in mind, previous updates are not available for download.

Hope this helps and happy listening! 🎧

Hi @Pepperpietrowsk! Welcome to community.

I moved your message from our Other Device support board to the iOS support board since your screenshots appear to be from an iOS device.

I checked your account on my end from a web browser and I do see that Podcasts have been collected. Can you do me a favor and log into your Pandora account from a computer to confirm if you're able to see your Podcasts. 

In the meantime, could you tell me more about your iPhone?

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

Thanks!

Pandora kept freezing on my iPhone so I deleted the app and reinstalled. It seems to work a little better but still freezes often. The bigger issue is all my podcasts are now missing. When I log in from my computer they are there but not on my app. Please help!!

@EB22 I moved your post over to the iOS space.

Can you please do me a favor and send me a screenshot of what you're seeing when sorting your collection by Podcasts?

(Please note you won't be able to attach images via email - you will need to open this Community link in a web browser in order to provide attachments)

Thanks for working with me on this. 🤝

Hi, @EB22. 👋

I do see that you have several podcasts when viewing your account from a web browser. 

In the meantime, I can definitely report this on your behalf. Could you share some additional details about your device?

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

Thanks for providing that screenshot for us. 🎧

As of update 2209.01 (about a week ago), my phone won't start playing my music when I open the app (auto-play in enabled in my settings) and then struggles to buffer my first choice of stations. When I pick a different station, it plays right away and then I can go back to my first choice/station. It also won't save any podcasts to my collection or pull up previously saved ones. I have a paid plan for many years now and never have had this problem. I have delated the app and redownloaded it. and I've turned my phone off and back on. No change.

Hi there, @Ravenwilliwick. 👋

Sorry to hear that you're encountering these issues during your listening sessions.

We currently have 3 separate threads that may apply to what you're experiencing: 

In the meantime, I'd like to share your feedback and experience with our engineering team on an internal ticket. They're aware of these issues and working on them. It's helpful to know:

  • Device & Generation: (e.g. iPhone X, iPad Air (3rd gen), etc.)
  • Carrier:
  • iOS version: (Settings > General > About > Version)
  • Pandora version: (Pandora > Profile tab > Settings gear & scroll to the bottom of the screen)
  • Are you connected to Wi-Fi or cellular data when this is happening? 
  • Have you noticed any error messages other than buffering? If so, what exactly does it say?

Thanks so much for your help with this. 🎧

I have done all 3 of those separate threads and no change.  Some of my podcasts have returned, but not all I had bookmarked/saved in the past. My music still doesn't automatically play whether I'm on wifi or cellular data. My main listening device is an iphone 11updated to IOS 16, Pandora version 2209.1.

I have the same issue on my iPhone 12 running the current version of IOS.  If I log into Pandora from the internet I can see all my podcasts but none of them appear on my iphone.  Also when I access Pandora via the web on my iPhone I can click add to my collection, get a message it's been added, but still that podcast won't appear in My Collection?

I lost my iOS podcast collections after upgrading to ios16. My problem is well documented on this forum and it has now been a month since this issue has been reported. Did SiriusXM downsize support staff after you were bought out?
