Hi @rynoleum Welcome to community! I've moved your post over to an existing thread about Shuffle: How to Shuffle Stations As a Premium subscriber, you should be able to use the following steps to edit your Shuffle. Go to My Collection. Pandora Premium subscribers will need to filter My Collection further by Stations. Then tap the Pencil to the right of Shuffle stations. There, you can select or deselect which stations you'd like to appear in your Shuffle by Station or Genre. Tap Save on the top right corner of your screen when done. ... View more

Hi @damonp Welcome to community! 👋 Can you tell me a little more about your experience? Are you listening to a station when this happens or a playlist? Can you share a screenshot of what you see when this occurs. You can include your screenshots here on community. The best way to do this is through a mobile or web browser, as you won't be able to add pictures through the email notification.   In the meantime, I've enabled a trace on your account. You can try rebooting your iPhone 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. To do that: Hold down the Pandora icon on your Home screen until all the icons start "shaking." Then tap - in the upper left of the Pandora icon, and confirm that you want to Delete app. Then re-install Pandora via the App Store on your device. **Please Note: Pandora Premium and Premium Family listeners may need to re-download some of their offline content after reinstalling the app. ...

Hi @Bankerbaker Welcome to community! 👋 I checked the Pandora account associated with your community profile and found that it is not currently upgraded to a paid subscription and is set to the free ad supported version. Further review shows that your account had been upgraded in the past through Apple, however, that was back in 2020. Let me know if you have any other questions. Thanks!   ... View more

Hi @Armygirl Thanks for the info. Looks like you have several ways to listen to Pandora in your car, Android Auto, PandoraLink and Bluetooth. Keep in mind, you'll need to connect your phone to your vehicle each time, all Pandora automotive implementations require you to use a compatible iPhone or Android with an active internet connection in order to stream music in the car. PandoraLink PandoraLink should be available in your Subaru and would be found within the Starlink media apps. While I believe this should support Bluetooth, it's often best to connect via USB for a more reliable connection. When connected though, the playback controls for Pandora will be transferred from your phone to your Subaru's head unit. An Accessory screen will appear on your phone, this message cannot be dismissed when you're connected to the vehicle. Android Auto: I know you mentioned you hated it, but it does have a nice interface and is pretty easy to use. Some Android Auto version support Bluetooth, but most I believe need to be connected via USB. I would double check your owner's manual to see if your version of AA supports a Bluetooth connection Once you're connected you can  launch the Pandora App icon in the Android Auto dashboard. Bluetooth: Standard Bluetooth is always a good option, however, playback and thumbs would be controlled via the phone, instead of your car's head unit. In most modern cars once you're connected you should be able to use the steering wheel controls to adjust volume and skip tracks. However, playing, pausing or selecting a different playlists, album or station would need to be done on the phone itself.   Hope you found this helpful, I would give each option a try to see which experience you enjoy the most. But for what it's worth, my recommendation is for Android Auto. I have found the experience to be a bit nicer. Let me know if you have any other questions. Use your mobile device only when conditions allow and as permitted by applicable law.           ... View more

Hi @Armygirl Welcome to community. 👋 Can you tell me a little more about your Subaru? Are you using the stock stereo system that came with your Subaru or an aftermarket stereo? If it's aftermarket, what is the make and model? Is your Subaru equipped with Android Auto? How do you connect to your vehicle, USB or Bluetooth? Thank for the help! Use your mobile device only when conditions allow and as permitted by applicable law. ... View more

Hi @Dick43! Welcome to community! I would reference your Subaru's owner's manual for specific instructions on how to connect your phone to your vehicle with Bluetooth. Since each vehicle may have different steps on how to do this, we're unable to provide specific instructions. ... View more

Hi @SherriLynn Welcome to community. I've moved your post over to an existing thread that I hope will help to explain how Pandora stations work - How Pandora works. Pandora stations are designed to introduce you to new music through the artists and songs that you already know. When creating a station based on your favorite artist or song Pandora stations will play music that is similar to your musical tastes. To expand your experience, I suggest using Modes. With Pandora Modes, you can take your stations in a variety of directions*.   Artist Only: Only songs from the artist headlining your station. (Please note: You may hear songs from other artists if you have added variety to a station.) My Station: The station you already know and love Crowd Faves: Plays whichever relevant songs are the most popular Discovery: Surfaces artists who don’t usually play on this station Deep Cuts: Delve deeper into the discographies of the artists on your station Newly Released: The newest releases from the artists featured on your station **Not all Pandora Modes will be available on every station Free listeners and Pandora Plus subscribers will be able to view an advertisement in order to initiate a complimentary Premium Access session to listen to Artist Only Mode. Those that do will also have access to Pandora Premium's other features during their Premium Access session. Click here to view the Accepted Solution. ... View more

Hi @BobbyT1959  Artist biographies may not be available for all artist but I'm happy to pass this along. Can you let me know the artist(s) that you're not seeing an About section for? All of the biographical and lyrical info on Pandora comes from partner services. Our partners at TiVo take care of our biographies and album descriptions. Let me know and I'll be sure to pass this on to the appropriate teams. ... View more

Hi @Badjiujiu Welcome to community! To confirm, you wanted to thumb a song that you didn't like but you weren't able to because the song had already finished playing? Let me know if I misunderstood your experience. If the track has already finished playing in your current listening session, from the Now Playing screen, swipe the album art from the left to right until you see the track you're looking for. From there you should be able to give it a thumb down or a thumb up.  It's only possible to give thumbs when listening to a station. Thumbs will not be available on playlists, albums or when using search. Unfortunately, it's currently not a feature to ban an artist or track at this time but there is a suggestion for this feature in our Ideas Board. Feel free to give it a vote, by clicking on the heart - Ideas: Blocking / Muting Artists & Genres  Hope this helped. ... View more

Hi @Chuck5665! Welcome to community. I moved your message over to an existing thread: Android: Playback stops when screen Locked or App Backgrounded It sounds like playback is stopping when Pandora is in the background. This can be caused by the battery optimization settings found within your Android. When updating the OS on Android devices, the battery optimization on all apps may be automatically turned back on by default. This can cause performance issues or interfere with playback when the app is backgrounded. Please try the following steps to see if they will help. Open your device Settings and then Apps. Scroll to find Pandora or use Search in the upper right hand corner. Select Battery Next select Unrestricted. Due to the numerous models of Android devices, we are unable to provide step by step instructions for every device. Please look up the steps to manage battery optimization for the specific make and model of your device and disable this for the Pandora app if the above does not apply. ... View more

Thanks for the follow up, @Strongarm1731. Requesting Siri to open apps while the phone is locked is a iOS level feature. Unfortunately, Pandora doesn't have control over this. I should note that this experience is not limited to Pandora. Siri will request to unlock your phone for other apps as well. However, you should still be able use voice commands to request Pandora to play music while the phone is locked and Pandora is not in the background.   ... View more
