Yes but if that's all they want you may be better off setting up a less complicated Chromecast
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It will but the fire stick plugs into the back of a tv using the hdmi port. So you could not watch tv and play Pandora at same time.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.As long as the TV is hooked up to stereo speakers, the answer is yes. The Firestik hooks into the TV, but does need a WI-FI source, but if the elderly person has some help with the set-up, the Firestik should work extremely well for any station that Pandora can access. And if that person is only using the IPad, it will work with the WI-FI hookup and a USB plug-in. It would, however, work better hooked into the TV.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes it will work for you .... Pandora sounds great
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I work with the elderly. A lot of them have problems with the regular remote for the TV. I would say that would be where the issues would arise is with the remote for the firestick.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes this will work it has the Pandora app on it all you have to do is download it which is simple and quick.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No. I cannot find a way to pair any of my apple devices with the fire, probably since it is android. I think your best bet would be an Apple TV.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Works just fine! Got one for my parents and they aren’t the most tech savvy.....
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes, you can pair your iPad with this receiver using Songpal app by Sony using bluetooth. Pairing processs is very simple and intuitive. Once paired, you can play any streaming music including Pandora form your iPad through this receiver. However, for your stated purpose, this receiver will be an overkill. Why not just buy them a bluetooth-enabled speaker (they range from a few bucks to several hundred dollars). That will keep things simple for an elderly person. I have added a few for your reference. Just a suggestion.
I would recommend:
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes, as long as the person has wifi and a tv with HDMI capabilities.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.
