This is still making the app unusable offline.  Is there any update? ... View more

I received an email stating that one of the messages in this thread was recorded as a solution - but it certainly is not.  Without the ability to listen reliably off-line, Pandora is useless to me.  Very frustrating ... View more

Yes!  I thought I was crazy but you are right.  Initially I blamed it on the fact I had deleted & reinstalled the app, and maybe the station hadn't downloaded fully.    But after confirming that all my stations that I want offline access to had fully downloaded, I noticed that they would disappear randomly while in off-line mode. I've really reached my limit with the buggy-ness of Pandora lately.  It's never been great, just good enough, and I know the process of trying to reconstruct my music tastes with another service would be a pain.  But my frustration is high enough at this point that it may come to that ...

The other users posts on this issue describe it well - when you press the side button to turn the phones display off (lock it), it stops playing the song if you are playing a downloaded song.  If you have a data connection and are streaming, it will continue to play while locked. Someone mentioned above that it doesn't do this when using airpods.  If I recall, I too didn't experience this issue when connected to a bluetooth device.  I do however have this problem when my phone is connected to wired headphones, and when my phone is playing out of its own internal speaker. ...

I've always thought Pandora to be buggy, but this latest issue is driving me crazy and I'm about to migrate to Spotify. iPhone 13 Pro Max running iOS 16.4.1(a) Pandora ver 2305.2 I listen to Pandora quite a bit with my phone in airplane mode, and the app in off-line mode.  (I fly a lot).  This has always worked, more or less, ok.  Some repetition issues, but otherwise ok. Most recent iOS update has ruined off-line mode.  Now, when app goes into off-line mode (either automatically or manually), the audio will stop playing when the phone's screen is turned off (either manually or times out). When you press a button to turn the phones screen back on, the audio will resume on the lock screen, albeit one track further down the playlist.  Turning the screen off again will, again, stop the audio. When the app has a data connection, the audio will continue to play when the screen goes off. To clarify, this is not an issue of the audio stopping when the phone is just locked.  It plays from the lock screen just fine.  Its when the phone goes dark that it stops. I have dug through all the settings of the app and the phone with no luck           ... View more
