Music discovery app Pandora has announced an update to its iOS app, featuring a new design and additional components.
Pandora allows users to create personalized music stations that play their preferred music. The latest version (v5.7.0) offers a refreshed design that improves the ease of shaping a station, including a new Personalization icon for quick access to one’s history, and being able to “un-thumb” a song previously marked “up” or “down” by re-tapping the Thumb icon. The app’s new mini-player offers music controls while browsing track history, and its redesigned notification and activity feed will alert users of recent happenings, like new music that has been added to their stations.
Free to download, Pandora 5.7 for iOS requires iOS 6.0 or later. Users can access the service for free, however a subscription to Pandora One – starting at $4 monthly – provides higher quality audio, desktop application usage, custom skins and fewer interruptions to music play.
