Waze App for iOS Gains Pandora Music Streaming Support

by

Google-owned mapping app Waze has been updated with support for Pandora music streaming, as revealed in a blog post on the Pandora website.

The update means Pandora listeners on both iOS and Android can stream songs directly from within the Waze app using its embedded audio player, allowing drivers to navigate and listen to their music without leaving the app.

The integration also works both ways, so once users connect Pandora and Waze on their device, the next Waze navigational direction also appears within the official Pandora app.

To connect the two apps, simply click the music icon on the top right corner of the Waze app interface, select the Pandora icon, and start streaming your music.

Waze can be downloaded from the App Store for free. [Direct Link]

I don't quite get the value of this integration, but perhaps it'll help someone.

Waze is pretty wonderful, but I stopped using it. My location shouldn't be fed into the Google datacomplex.

Maybe Waze should fix the slow turns and improve there bad CarPlay before adding stuff people don’t really need

Because there are still people who prefer Pandora.
But can’t you use Pandora, or any other music app, in the background? I’m failing to see the point.
