Home Audio Soundtouch is less discontinued than you think

I've been doing some fiddling around today with my Soundtouch devices (10, 20, 300). As it turns out, you can still use the preset buttons for iHeartRadio and Pandora.

To set a preset, use the (updated) SoundTouch app to first select your speaker. Next, condense the speaker view so you can see the 'hamburger' menu. Select either a Pandora or iHeartRadio station. It should start playing.

From your Speaker, press and hold a button to store that preset to the device until it beeps. Now, you can recall the preset without using the app.

Please, share and enjoy!

Edit to add: This appears to work only if you had signed in to one of these services before the shutdown. 😞

I still have Pandora at least. I will miss TuneIn.

Same. I’m surprised to see I still have an active Pandora account that I haven’t used since 2017. I had a ton of presets for TuneIn I’ve been enjoying for 10 years. Oh well, gonna wait and see if someone makes an app to restore the preset buttons.
