Pandora refreshes for iOS, Android.
Pandora 4.0 for iOS and Android is the culmination of a year's planning, design, engineering, and testing to deliver the biggest update made to the mobilee apps since the service first launched. Pandora 4.0 brings a new lean in experience that's not possible with traditional radio and provides an ideal environment for you to better discover, explore and share your favorite music.

A new music activity feed offers a centralized place for you to find and follow friends and other musical mentors on Pandora opening up an entirely new way to discover great music you'll love.
Artist and Track Pages - For those times you want to dive in deeper and explore new worlds of music, we've added millions of artist, album, and track pages that let you learn more about the music you love - complete with full lyrics, related artists, and musicological traits from the Music Genome Project.

Choose to make your profile public and other Pandora listeners can find inspiration in your discoveries.
Pandora 4.0 is available for iOS now from the App Store, and will be available on Google Play for Android in the coming weeks as Pandora wraps up testing.
