Listen to unlimited hours of music with Pandora. This smart program evaluates your current library of saved music and suggests new music based on what you already listen to.

Unlock new artists

Stream and enjoy unlimited music that is tailored to you, based on your current music library.

Choose from two subscription plans. A free plan allows you to stream music, but is littered with advertisements. The paid version offers ad-free listening.

Search through stations that are already established, each containing different genres of music. Alternatively, create your unique station based on your preferences. You can start multiple playlists to listen to at your leisure.

If you like a song and give it a thumbs up, the site will begin to search for other similar music to recommend to you. If you give it a thumbs down, the software will try to steer away from that kind of music. It’s a simple concept but it’s very well implemented. You can even give a song two thumbs down if you feel that it particularly doesn’t fit your taste. Pandora will block the song along with the artist.

There are also options to continuously filter music as you browse the platform. This is a great way to keep kids away from music containing profanity and adult themes in general.

Pandora has some downsides, though. Something many fans might find frustrating is a lack of a family account. Rather than offer a plan for multiple people, it forces each individual to purchase a separate subscription. This is pricey and inconvenient. Also, make sure your internet connection is stable, otherwise be ready for constant freezes and glitches that will ruin your listening experience.

Where can you run this program?

This program runs on iOS version 12.1.2 and later.

Is there a better alternative?

No. Pandora may have a few flaws, but it stands out with its comfortable interface and ease of use. Just be mindful of your internet connection. Apple Music is another choice, but it has limited features.

Our take

Overall, the concept behind Pandora is a good one. By suggesting music that is similar to what you are already listening to, you might find new music you enjoy. The adverts can get annoying, though.

Should you download it?

Yes. If you are on an unlimited data package, and open to streaming music without saving it, then this is a great option for you.
