If you love music and own a Pebble watch, you might be happy to know that you can now control Pandora stations right from your wrist.

Those interested in downloading Pandora should know they need the Pebble 2.0 app installed on their handsets.

The application will let users control their Pandora playlists from their smartwatches and, according to Pandora's Product VP, this is the first time since a music-streaming service is available on a wearable device, which definitely makes things quite exciting.

Furthermore, Pebble wearers will be able to view, change station, thumb up or down songs, skip, play and pause tracks.

No matter if users are out on a run or cooking dinner in the kitchen with a song playing in the other room, they can give the thumbs up to a song they particularly enjoyed (or not).

The Pandora app can be downloaded from the Pebble app store or directly from Pebble’s settings menu. For the moment the app has been made available only for Pebble iOS users, but an Android version is of course in the works.

In related news, Pandora updated its iPad app this week, adding an alarm-clock functionality that was already available to iPhone users ever since last December.
