Ive had a similar problem a few weeks ago (Pandora unpausing when I didn't ask it to), but it didn't happen as often as others commented above. However, I think it stopped on its own but with with a new problem in its place. When I have Pandora closed, a notification saying, "Unknown by Unknown" pops up on my notification screen and I cannot get rid of it. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app, and it still persists. How may I solve both of these problems should the both continue?
Following a thorough review by our engineering team, we've determined this behavior is not exclusive to the Pandora app and is instead dictated by the Android operating system as of Android 13, part of an effort by Google to allow users to resume playback more easily from their most-used media services.

It looks like you've already been in touch with a member of our support team via email. They've gone ahead and reported this on your behalf to our tech team. We appreciate your patience while this is being looked into.
I looked in both my phone and computer for the community tab, and it looks like I cannot find a place to attach an image to show a screenshot. Are you sure I could not email the screenshot and phone info? I feel more comfortable sending the phone info there, not in the public place.
I'd like to chime in to say I'm experiencing the same problem. Android phone, launch from car already disabled, persistent notification from Pandora saying Unknown song by unknown artist over a black background. If I open Pandora to play music, the notification displays the correct information, and then it goes away once I close Pandora. Two or three seconds later, the notification comes back, with the Unknown message.
I usually am using cellular data. I can try using just Wifi to see if it fixes itself. The only pattern I am seeing is when the app is closed, the notification pops up and I'm unable to remove it without using Pandora again.
The app isn't running as it is. It's part of the background running apps. Unless you have developer settings enabled you can't stop pandora from using background resources. It does so when Bluetooth or wifi is enabled. This is done in order to quickly communicate with known wifi and Bluetooth accessories. That notification is part of background services to allow you to quickly open the app and immediately connect to accessories. Removing the notification does nothing to background services. As of yet, I've noticed no change in battery, with or without the notification.
I've been having the same problem for weeks now and it is incredibly annoying. However, I have managed to find a temporary fix. Whenever you exit the Pandora app and the notification pops up, go into the app's settings and press the "force stop" button. It gets rid of the notification for me, but I have to do it every time I exit Pandora, hence it being only a temporary fix. At the very least it stops me from going crazy because of the constant notification. Hope this helps a little bit!
My screenshot looks exactly like Lost-In-Sedona's on the bottom. To cope until it gets fixed, I have the notification minimized. It's not big anymore and not a pop up on the top part of my screen where notification icons would be but it's still there in the notification screen. Has someone been able to recieve my android info from the email? As I had mentioned previously, they directed me back to here.
I canceled my account today after reading thru this topic. I'm on an s23 ultra and this app was broken with the 2310.1 version. There are no updates or useful help to be found in this topic and I don't know why I'm paying for this broken service.
Hello. Samsung Galaxy S 21 Ultra, AT&T, version 2310.1. Application not responding to pause, play, skip, rewind, or anything on blue tooth devices as well as the app itself. I have to power off my phone to get it to stop running in the background. Really would like this solved; I pay for premium and have avoided using it as much as I can, which is super upsetting!
No there is no error message or message of any kind. It is like the app freezes on that song. The song will continue to play but you can not skip. Also if you need to turn the music off sometimes it is very difficult. There are times you have to close all apps multiple times before the music stops.
So this problem has persisted for over a month and I see no solution posted by Pandora. Why should I continue to pay for premium if you will not fix this.? I am using a Galaxy S22 and experiencing the same type of problem as the other people on this Thread. I am having no problems with any other App not allowing my Bluetooth devices to control tem. This must be a Pandora problem
I honestly don't think Pandora cares anymore. Pandora have you just given up? Sad after how long I was with you. I have moved on. 3 months of free Spotify thru Microsoft rewards. This will be my last month of premium Pandora.
Everyone that this has happened too needs to start a new Topic with the same meaning, just maybe each one spelled Diff. If they are spammed with it, maybe someone will pay attention. They have closed this particular topic last month. Lets get a 1000 new topics related to the same thing going.
Its been almost 3 months and there has been no update to fix the numerous complaints from users regarding the player control issues, i have sent case tickets and have only received general responses about how there is no timeline as to when the problems will be resolved, i still pay $5.99 a month and will continue until it is resolved and or there's a refund when it is fixed
I have a 2023 Ford Explorer that is connected to my phone via Bluetooth. However, it's not allowing me to skip songs and when I try to play a different song on my phone, both songs play at the same time. This is very frustrating as the whole point of having Bluetooth connectivity is to enjoy a hands-free experience.
When I select the option to use External player a pop message appears saying "No Player, it doesn't appear you have a video capable app installed. This option requires you to install a 3rd party app for playing video content." Well I have VLC installed, and MX player. What am I missing here? When I sideload the Android Mobile version of this app then the option to choose VLC is available, but not in the Android TV client. Is this a bug? Same thing happens on Sony TV and two generations of Nvidia Shield.
Can someone recommend an Android music player that recognizes MP3Tag's Genre multi-tag format? For example: If an album that has a Genre tag like 'Classical\Opera' I want the album to show up in the Classical Genre list and the Opera Genre list.
Not, not really. You probably find this character in a column of the files list.
Have a look at the definition for "value" and you will probably see something
$meta_sep(genre,\\)
which means that the \\ are defined as separating characters but you could just as well take any other character. Foobar, I think, takes the semicolon as separator
The point I try to make: as there as so few players that actually the real multi-value fields, there are some players that interpret special characters in a single-value field as separator and display the items separated like that as individual items.
I know that e.g. WMP use the semicolon in ARTIST, GENRE, ALBUMARTIST and COMPOSER to create individual entries.
E.g. Stock; Aitken; Waterman would show an entry under A for Aitken, one under S for Stock and one under W for Waterman.
And all this without a multi-value field.
So it could be that there are other players around that do it like that.
And whatever the implementation would be: MP3tag can help you to set the right format.
In any case, I've been using '\\' (2 backslashes) in MP3Tag to separate GENREs, and Foobar2000 is splitting them correctly. Both are in their default/factory configurations and they work together properly, so I'm good! Thanks for clarifying.

Documentation for the properties is grouped according to their respective sections in the Player UI(User Interface) Allows a user to interact with your application. Unity currently supports three UI systems. More info

Use the Allowed Orientations for Auto Rotation section to specify which orientations the application supports when you set Default Orientation to Auto Rotation. This is useful, for example, to lock the application to landscape orientation but allow the user to switch between landscape left and landscape right.
