Pandora Radio Issue since latest iOs update: anyone else?

2015-04-16 Thread Christine Grassman
I apologize if this has been discussed before. Since updating to the latest iOs 
on my iPhone 6, I have been having an issue with the Pandora radio app I have 
never experienced before:
If I am listening to a station and hit back arrow, I used to get a list of my 
other stations and the option to create a new station. I could choose another 
station and get to it (although sometimes it would go to the wrong station, and 
I had to repeat the process, which was annoying, but not a deal breaker).
Now, when I go back, VO reads one station, whichever I happen to focus on when 
I touch the screen, then the app freezes entirely. I have to play around with 
the iPhone, hitting the Home button several times, or shutting VO off and then 
on to get the iPhone working again, and Pandora must be closed and reopened.
Anyone else?
TIA.
Christine

Do you have your apps updating automatically? Several people have
reported problems with the latest release of the Pandora app, so I'm
not sure it's related to the iOS update.

You might consider contacting Pandora and reporting the issue to them.

Hi.  Yes, Pandora Radio is well and truly screwed up.  Though I've had some 
luck with Pandora support in the past when there was an accessibility issue, it 
seems that accessibility has been allowed to slip, and this latest release is 
the final straw for me.  I can't navigate in the station list without the app 
freezing, and I refuse to put up with that nonsense. I'll switch over to anoth 
streaming app that works at least halfway decently until Pandora's overhauled. 
In the interim, I'd advise people to stay away from the latest update or avoid  
it altogether if contemplating installing Pandora for the first time.

Re: Pandora Radio Issue since latest iOs update: anyone else?

2015-04-16 Thread Tom Lange
Hi all.  After posting on this thread early this morning, I had a look at 
Pandora reviews  in the app store.  I found that the collection of reviews was 
a mixed bag; some were stellar, some were scathing.  As expected, some people 
absolutely love Pandora and  a while back I would have counted myself in that 
group. But there are a number of folks who have gripes about its interface, as 
I do, and, there are some who wrote reviews to fuss about significant 
degradation of  the app's performance as well as significant degradation of 
phone responsiveness overall when Pandora's running in the background.  Very 
interesting indeed. By the way, none of those negative reviews about 
performance degradation mentioned VoiceOver, so I presume that a goodly number 
of sighted folks out there who aren't running VoiceOver or Zoom are having this 
issue.  So, lest we succumb to temptation to kvetch about how we VoiceOver 
users got screwed with the latest Pandora update, there seems to be ample 
evidence that the app has become increasingly buggy and glitchy and we would-be 
kvetchers ain't alone in the wilderness fussing about how Pandora's performance 
of late really sucks, with or without VoiceOver. .
