★★★★★ "Poor service. Every time I open pandora, it will play 1 song, and I always have to close it again and re-open for it to continue playing more than 1 song. It’s been going on for weeks now and I’m about ready to switch" - DiscoElephant101

★★★★★ "Crashes constantly. No matter the updates and “bug fixes” Pandora continues to just stop as it pleases. Usually it first stops about 2 minutes into playing. Once restarted it works well. It does randomly select some garbage genres that I’ve never listened to…" - KashDaddyKev

I’m so tired of them not working on iPhones. Do better. So disappointing.
Poor service

it’s a good app but this needs to change
so i have used this app for a while but i don’t understand why when i pick a song it changes to something else before i listen to the song i chose if there’s a way you can fix that it would be amazing
Terrible I used to love Pandora
I've been with Pandora since the early 2000s but most recently they allowed someone to uplift my whole music catalogue and downloaded on Twitter so I don't have access to my music anymore and they want me to pay for the subscriptions of my previous music cat
Limited time?
Everytime I try to play a song it tells me every. single. song. Watch an ad to listen for a limited time..I’m not using an app that not only spams me with ads but only lets me listen to music temporarily
Could not log in
Couldn’t log into my account
Pay to enjoy
I listen to music when i do work or chill and i am always hitting a limit to amount of songs i can listen to without having to pay for an upgrade i hate this app but i use it because it is the least pay to use app but it still sucks just lime every other music app
No play
Can’t listen to the music without the app being open
Incredible
Honestly adds are terrible.
They even play adds about how bad the adds are so you will buy premium.
I have been using pandora for about 15 years. It used to be way less adds.
I have found many great songs using Pandora.
It would get a 7 star if not for adds.

Pandora
This is the bast music thar is played it plays all my favorite songs
used to be good prior to xm purchase
this app is full of bugs no matter the updates. believe XM wants this app to fail to charge more. music constantly stops or disconnects to bluetooth devices and when playing directly on ios as an app.
Crashes constantly
No matter the updates and “bug fixes” Pandora continues to just stop as it pleases. Usually it first stops about 2 minutes into playing. Once restarted it works well. It does randomly select some garbage genres that I’ve never listened to as well.
Music Apps
Pandora falls into the same heap as Spotify and the other music apps. No matter what style or genre I choose, over a short time it plays the same 40 songs over and over
Improvement
Make it easier to get skips. Space out the ads a little more. I turn off my Pandora and turn on YouTube sometimes because the ads are just as bad. YouTube has a better search engine/ function. It is easier to find songs that I don’t know the name of. I like how pandora gives me similar music/ new music to my likes.
