Full Pandora list not always showing

greg72982 · 07-04-2016, 01:50 PM

When I use Pandora, more times than not on Apple Carplay my full station list does not show. Usually it just lists the numbered stations to about "B," basically just what fits on the screen and it doesn't allow you to scroll down further. It has though at least once showed all of them and I was able to scroll from A-Z. It's not a huge deal since I can still pick all of the stations through the phone app, just didn't know if I'm doing anything wrong.

I also don't have a Pandora app on the main screen. I just read on another thread that I may need an update already so maybe that's part of it?

See if it corresponds to when you are stopped. I've heard CarPlay is very picky on scrolling lists when moving.

Hmm, I'll try that out, thanks.

Mine did the same thing!!!

Try unlocking the phone. That always fixed it for me. Once unlocked it could relock no problem, but just after it is first plugged in I had to unlock it.

I have the same issue with iHeart radio just showing a black screen until the phone is unlocked.

I know it's delayed but SuperSound was right. I finally remembered to check it last night. I just put the parking brake on and off. When it was on I had the full list, when it was off it only showed up to my channel (Bullet For My Valentine). Come to think of it I don't know if it's just showing the beginning of the list or up to my channel being that it begins with a "B." May have to try that too later.

Glad that was all it was but at the same time sucks because that's an Apple decision. Android Auto has some similar annoyances.

CarPlay wasn't what I thought it would be, but I'm not a huge audio guy anyway. As long as I can play Pandora or Spotify I'm happy, and I can.

It's by design as said above, so you're not messing with lists while you're driving. I've had pretty good luck with voice commands in those situations.

Spotifi does the same thing to me. I just use it thru my phone now.

My Spotify does the same thing, it will only list 11 Albums, Artists, Playlists or Songs.
Very annoying and a really bad design.

It's safer to tap a larger touchscreen then grab my phone and change stations while I shift.
