Push, email and banner notifications

Pandora uses push and email notifications to let you know when new music from your favorite artists becomes available on your stations, and to notify you about activity on your Pandora Profile.

All Pandora users will receive occasional communication about important changes to our service. While some infrequent communication is necessary, you can adjust many of your notification settings manually.

"Using battery" notifications on Android devices

The Android Oreo operating system was released with a notification system to alert you of all the apps running in the background of your device. This means that you may be frequently updated about Pandora "using battery."

Please be assured that when Pandora is paused it will use minimal data and battery. In addition, the Android system will automatically close apps as it needs to.

To disable this "using battery" message:

1. Unlock your Android device and swipe down on the notification shade to view the "using battery” notification.
2. Swipe right on the notification that Pandora is using battery, and tap the small gear.
3. This will expose a highlighted toggle. Tap on the toggle to disable it (it will become grayed out).
4. Select Done, and you'll have disabled the notification.

You can also completely exit Pandora by going to My Collection, opening your menu, selecting Settings and scrolling down to sign out.
