Cannot loop a single track on Android

When using the Loop 1 feature on Android the song will loop once and then turn the loop off, proceeding to the next song in the queue after the first song has played twice. The app is up to date and I have been able to reliably recreate this on a Pixel 4a and Pixel 7 phone. I suspect that it detects the initial loop as a song change, which automatically turns off the single song looping.

@Leonídia.Deezer  Checked it out again on two Android devices. Meizu M5s and Remi Note 11. The bug works the same way.
I thought maybe this is due to the fact that Meizu has an old android, but no.
The video shows that at the end of the track, the state of the repeat button changes by itself, if the Deezer tab is open on the PC.
At the time of the video 1:20 I closed it on the PC and the bug is gone.
App updated, latest version.

Hello @Twinkle thanks for sharing these details and video.

So if I am only using the app, the behavior you mention of the repeat one track deselect by himself, doesn’t happen.

But if I have the browser open on the same account I am using on the phone, the Repeat on track option get’s deactivated. 

This is due to the function “sync” between accounts and not an bug.

If you try just to use Deezer on your phone do you have the same behavior ?

Nevertheless I will share with the team your feedback, and maybe this can be consider to be different in the future.

@Leonídia.Deezer  Yes, just like you say.
But it seemed that if I do not press anything, then nothing should change.
In my case, I could not understand why for two years I had a repeat reset XD
@zikes Seems to be facing the same problem.

In any case, thanks a lot for your reply.

An issue with the Loop 1 feature on your Android music app, where the song loops only once and then turns off the loop, proceeding to the next song in the queue. Given that you've reproduced this problem on both a Pixel 4a and Pixel 7 phone, it's possible that there could be a bug in the app's loop functionality. One potential explanation for the behavior you're observing is that the app might be interpreting the looped playback as a song change, leading to the loop turning off after a single iteration.

When I activate the "Loop 1" feature for a specific track, it only loops the song once, and then the loop feature turns off automatically. This issue persists even when I'm using the most up-to-date version of the app. I've tried this on both a Samsung Galaxy S21 and a Google Pixel 6, and the problem is consistent across both devices. It feels like the app mistakenly detects the initial loop rockstar font as a song change, causing the loop to deactivate after just one repetition.
