Only months after announcing plans to offer a version of its Pandora client on Google Android devices, Pandora announced today that its Android client is now available. Tom Conrad, the company’s Chief Technology Officer, writes:
I’m really excited about how Pandora for Android turned out. You listen to all the Pandora stations that you’ve been listening to on the web and the application is deeply integrated with many of the core Android features too. You can control playback from a home screen widget, “deep tap” any artist or song in the standard Android music player and jump into Pandora to discover other similar artists, make a smart folder to get quick access to your stations from the home screen, buy tracks you discover from the Amazon MP3 application, use your Android address book to share stations with your friends, and of course listen in the background while you’re doing other things on the phone.
Pandora runs on both the myTouch and the G1 and should be available for the Hero when it is released by Sprint next month as well.
Meanwhile, we’re still waiting for a bit of Pandora love in Canada…
