I have used Pandora both by plugging into the USB and over bluetooth. When I have my phone plugged into the USB and Pandora is playing, I can control the basic functions on the MFT screen such as next, pause, and play but no thumbs up or thumbs down. In order to do the more advanced functions I have to do it on my phone. Also, the album art is only displayed when I have it hooked up to USB and is not displayed when on bluetooth.
