# Pandora outage affects thousands, users report connection errors 2026-08-15T03:42:42+00:00 | Technology | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet Pandora appeared to be down for thousands of users on Friday, August 14, with Downdetector recording more than 2,000 reports. Users reported connection failures on the music streaming app and website, along with “session timed out” messages. Downdetector indicated that problems began at 10:29pm ET. Pandora Support had not commented on the outage, so its cause and restoration time were unclear. Pandora’s community recommends checking internet or mobile data, disabling VPNs, clearing the app cache or data, and reinstalling or updating the app. However, several users said these steps did not work, suggesting the problem may have been on Pandora’s side. ## Coverage - hindustantimes.com Tags: Downdetector, Pandora, SiriusXM Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/pandora-outage-affects-thousands-users-report-connection-errors/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
