After some glitchy behavior (random auto-playing, even when off; battery drain) I decided to un-and re-install the app--figuring there was a buggy update at some point. After launching the re-installed app, I went to settings to fix the preferences. When I attempt to enter the "Offline Mode" section to toggle off the Offline option, the app crashes before the screen can even fully load. I can see that Offline mode is engaged (which I do not want--due to storage issues). Can Pandora please set Offline Mode to off as a default please?
Not just for me, but for all users... so that each user can decide how much storage space they are will to sacrifice!
And can you please turn it off for me now, until you get this fixed?
Thank you!

Yes, offline mode should ALWAYS be set to OFF by default, as not everyone has the storage capacity for offline stations--nor should they be expected to! Turning on the offline mode should be a conscious privilege, not a default.
