Can't sync Pandora Stations

[BMCG]

I have my Ionic 90% set up, can't seem to sync Pandora stations, either my top stations or the "workout" stations you can select from.  My Ionic syncs to my phone app fine (so far), but for reason the stations never seem to load to tracker. I let it update over night, and nothing loaded, just says "No Stations Yet".  I have tried re-sync and force sync a few times now. Anyone have any suggestions?  I'd love to use this feature. Please Help Fitbit!

Clearly many problems with Ionic but is anyone having trouble getting it to sync with Pandora?  Mine has been trying to Update stations for 17 hours now.  Fitbit has no solution and will not admit that they released this product with known bugs. $300 for a non working "smart watch" is a bit steep.  Anyone recommend a better product with similar features?

I didn't have any issues syncing Pandora to my Ionic. Granted it did take while (not 17 hours), but probably an hour or so. But after that it's been fine. I've used all three stations that it downloaded with no issues.

From what i read the tracker needs to be connected to wifi and on its charger for Pandora to update

I can't get it to sync anthing but thumbprint music and I tried all the fixes FITBIT please fix this

[MrMannilow]

Is there an actual Pandora app or just Music app? When I go to configure Pandora it keeps telling me to go to All Apps and download the Pandora app but there isn't one listed. This is beyond frustrating 

[Indaskys]

There is a pandora app swipe right from the clock screen untill you see the apps pandora will be there

[MrMannilow]

My Ionic does not have this....

Indaskys do you have a Pandora app or just Music? Fitbit support says I should have an app for Pandora pre loaded but I dont

[Indaskys]

I had a Pandora app preloaded maybe try a factory reset and than it should update

From the office of CnD Creations

[MrMannilow]

Already tried twice

[MrMannilow]

I have no reset my fitbit 3 times and no pandora app shows up after the initial setup and update..this is garbage!!!!

[dogspotsdeb]

You have to install Pandora from the FitBit Webapp, Not the Ionic it will
then show up on your Ionic. If you scroll up this thread, one of the
FirBit admins shows how to do this step by step.

My issue is that I originally downloaded the workout stations.  I now want to try and switch to my 3 most popular stations,  but this doesn't seem to be working.  I forced sync, but although it will show on the watch syncing, my initial workout stations are not being replaced.  Is there a trick i'm missing?

Thanks

[Indaskys]

Remove the old stations first

Thanks. Strange as I didn't have the option to remove these. So I unlinked Pandora. Relinked.
I did a forced sync. Not seeing any stations. So I went back to choosing the workout stations I want. (I already have music playlists downloaded as well). And did another force sync.
I've forced a few times, and still no music showing up on the iconic. I also am not seeing the verbiage on the iconic that indicates I'm syncing the download. Hmmm.

I really hope fitbit is watching these threads and realizes just how important the music part of this watch is to a very high percentage of us!  I was at the gym yesterday and talked to two people who got the watch whom are very upset with how difficult it is to download music into the watch..    It was also funny for me to hear that both were Spotify subscribers who were utterly disappointed just like I am in terms of not having spotify as an option...    

In regards to how pandora works,  I've noticed that it's very hard to make work,  and it doesn't download your top three stations half the time..   It's like,  I went in a created a station on my PC so I can download into ionic and the ionic never saw it...   The only thing I could assume was because I never played any songs from it..  But,  if you think about it that is stupid right?  What about those of us whom ONLY plan on using pandora while we run?   I mean,  who has time to hit thumbs up or thumbs down while running,  or whom has time to sit around and listen to the new station on a PC just so the ionic can see it?    Tons of inconsistencies right now with the music integration,  I certainly hope fitbit is working hard to get all of this sorted out..  After all,   this is why many of us took the plunge and bought the watch,  it has to be much or feature rich and the sooner the better..   For me the order of importance was fitness tracking,  music,   and then everything else..
