Android Auto - Playlist order

Hello,

When I start a playlist in Android auto, the order changes to 'standard'.
If I start the playlist on my phone the order is 'last added'.
Is there a way so the order stays at 'last added' when I start the list from Android auto?
The same happens with Android Wear.

    Hi there @Kevin.Duarte.Costa

    Could you try the following steps, exactly in this order, to see if it helps with your issue?

    • make sure you're connected to a wifi network
    • uninstall Deezer
    • clean your phone's cache
    • remove the SD card
    • turn off your phone
    • reinstall Deezer
    • open Deezer and download at least one album or playlist
    • reinsert the SD card

    Hello Rudi
    Sorry for the late reply.
    I finally had time to do this on two phones and both still have the same issue.

    Hi there again @Kevin.Duarte.Costa

    I've checked with our devs and there's a suggestion. Have you tried connecting your mobile to the car before opening the Deezer app? Let me know what happens!

    Hello Rudi,

    Yes I tried that.
    The same thing happens in the Android auto app by itself, without a connected car, by the way.

    Hi there @Kevin.Duarte.Costa

    Have you got the car's firmware and our app up-to-date?

    Android Auto and Deezer are on the newest version, the car itself, too.

    Hi there @Kevin.Duarte.Costa

    Could you try posting a screenshot? Have you tried connecting the phone with a cable to see if it makes a difference?

    Hi again!
    So in the screenshots you can see my playlist in the orders "zuletzt hinzugefügt" (last added) and "standard".
    I want it to play in the last added order, so the first song should be "thank you".
    But when I start the playlist from Android auto it starts the song sweet little lies first (standard order).

    Hi @Kevin.Duarte.Costa sorry for the late reply. We do not seem to have an update on this. I will ping the developers again, can you just tell me which version of the app you have installed at the moment?
