I’ve been having this really annoying issue with the Pandora app on my Android phone. It just randomly turns on by itself without me even touching it! Has anyone else experienced this problem?
Here’s what I’ve tried so far:
Checked App Settings: I went through the app’s settings to see if there’s an option causing it to auto-launch, but I couldn’t find anything.
Background Data: I disabled background data for Pandora, but that hasn’t helped.
Uninstalling/Reinstalling: I even tried uninstalling the app and reinstalling it to see if that would fix the glitch.
Cleared Cache: I cleared the app cache but still have the same problem.
Possible Causes I’m Considering:
Conflicts with Other Apps: I wonder if there’s another app that might be activating Pandora somehow.
Phone Features: Maybe there’s a feature on my phone that’s launching it, like voice commands or gestures?
Updates or Bugs: Could there be a bug in the latest update? My app is up to date.
Questions for Anyone Who’s Experienced This:
How did you resolve the issue?
Were there specific settings or adjustments that made a difference?
Has anyone noticed this happening more with certain Android versions?
I’d really appreciate any tips or help you can offer. Thanks in advance!
Sometimes, the operating system itself can cause problems like this—especially after an update. Have you noticed anything odd after a recent OS update?
I had the same issue! I discovered that my phone’s voice activation was turning Pandora on randomly. Check your settings and see if voice activation is enabled.
Sometimes permissions can cause apps to act up. Go to your app settings and check if Pandora has permission to run in the background. You might want to turn it off.
This is bizarre! Is there a chance it could be something external, like a smart device triggering it? Things like Alexa or Google Home might be involved.
I wonder if app updates could affect this? I noticed some discrepancies after a new update rolled out. You might want to check if everyone is on the latest version.
