Hey there, @Al-NN4ZZ. 👋
Thanks so much for your post. These are great questions, and I can definitely clarify a bit more for you.
Both Pandora Plus and Pandora Premium listeners can also switch to Offline Listening at any time, so you can save your data and take the music you love wherever you go. Please note that we'll never use the last 500MB of storage on your device.
Offline Content:
To clarify, your offline collection will be removed - not deleted.
This means you'll still be able to re-download that content. Our system needs to re-sync with the device (by connecting to WiFi or data) to update.
For example, if you have downloaded stations and are giving thumb feedback while in offline mode, you'll need to go back online in order for the stations to update / for the thumb feedback to sync.
Additionally, we will automatically sync your offline playlists when you add new content to the online version, as long as there is enough storage on your device and you are connected to Wi-Fi. If you've enabled mobile downloading in your settings, we will also update your offline playlists when you connect to your mobile network. If you are missing recently added songs on an offline playlist, try deleting other content or freeing up space on your device. If you notice that any content is missing (songs, albums, playlists, stations, etc) this could be related to storage. If it's not storage related and you've reconnected already, it could be a potential bug that may require troubleshooting.

Downgrading from a Paid Subscription:
If you unsubscribe from a paid subscription, the ability to listen offline is removed automatically as this is a subscription benefit. Your account would be revert back to the free ad-supported version of Pandora.
When you downgrade from Pandora Premium to Plus or ad-supported Pandora, you will not be able to access your on-demand music collection or custom playlists. However, your collection and playback history will be stored in our servers for when you return to Premium.

Reconnecting to Pandora:
The short answer is, yes. I would refresh the connection so that your information is synced.
I hope this information is helpful. 🎧
