[APK Download] Pandora Finally Gets Visual Refresh After Several Months Of Testing

We first caught wind of an in-progress visual redesign of Pandora’s Android app back in September, but it hasn’t reached the masses until today’s update to version 5.7. Pandora, which had a very dated interface, was well overdue for some kind of reimagining. While Material Design fans are sure to be disappointed, there are several notable improvements and the overall look is much cleaner and modern.

You can look at the station’s history, change its settings, and see things like the net like and dislikes you have for it.

One glaring omission is the continued inability to pause, play, or advance to the next track from the sticky notification. This one is hard to explain given how much of a standard behavior this is for music apps on Android.

At any rate, this is still going to be a big step in the right direction for Pandora fans. The new look is a vast improvement and the peripheral features are welcome, too. If you want a lot more from the app, you probably already moved on to another service.
