Hi guys,

My 2017 1500 I can use the 'media' icon to use Pandora, but from what I've seen, others have a Pandora app on theirs? This correct?

I couldn't see how I could download in from the ucoonect store...

Andriod if it matters..

On my 17 charger I do not have any media apps. THat was on the older 8.4 screens. My parents 15 and 16 cherokees they don't have the streaming apps. The 2014 did. I think with newer 8.4 updates they got removed. I have android auto on my 8.4 and I can stream a slot of stuff on my charger. Don't know if the Rams have Android auto/Apple car play yet

The media apps are no longer available on the '17 Ram's, and will be removed from prior year vehicles as the ViaMobile subscription runs out. They are phasing those apps out in favor of Apple CarPlay and AndroidAuto.

Uconnect rep did say they are working on making the CarPlay and AndroidAuto work on '17 and older 8.4 head units, but it's not available yet.

You'll have to stream Pandora through bluetooth for the time being.

OK! Good to know like Ivey said..

I consider myself tech savy but.. couldn't figure it out. That's why!

It works through the media/bluetooth so not too worried. Was just unable to give thumbs up.. which is no big deal. Can still do it on my phone if I 'HAD' to..

So far with my 2017, I can't do more than I can. It's a disappointment.
