Pandora creates a standalone Apple Watch app which has no requirement to use an iPhone when you want to stream music and podcasts. Previously you could only download Pandora music on the Apple Watch and not stream without having an iPhone nearby. Listening to Pandora can be done in a variety of ways.
Pandora Modes
The new way to customize your station experience. Choose from six different modes to switch up the kind of music you’re hearing.
- My Station – The station experience you know and love.
- Crowd Faves – Hear the most thumbed-up songs by other listeners.
- Deep Cuts – Hear less familiar songs from station artists.
- Discovery – Hear more artists who don’t usually play on this station.
