Ratings and reviews

Great App. I prefer it over Spotify. However, it gets only 4 stars because nearly every time I open it, it defaults to my offline station (that I haven't listened to in over a year) and I am forced to re-select the station I was previously listening to. This is not only very inconvenient, particularly when on the road, but I also find it hard to believe it isn't a bandwidth/cost saving measure. Not cool.

Used for 15 years. Yet over the last couple of years it has become unusable. Screen won't load. Shuts itself off. Can't see playlists or control anything on it. Plays half a song if I'm really lucky. I've uninstalled and reinstalled multiple times till I gave up for months and then try again only to start the cycle again. I've only gone this long out of loyalty and the hope that meticulously cultivated playlist were not lost. But I have given up. Good bye Pandora. Good riddance.

I prefer making my own playlists rather than listening to "related" songs but the app isn't great for making playlists. I created a playlist for different times each time I saved and played it, it was full of songs I didn't choose. Even after editing to remove the unwanted songs it still played with all the songs. Making a playlists takes so long and you still don't get just what you want. It's not worth it.
