Favourite playlist no longer playing in recently added order

Hi

I have enjoyed Deezer for over 5 years and since recent updates, my favourite playlist seems to have a bug. Whenever i want songs to play in recently added order, it plays in default order instead. I have tried deleting app and re installing, i have tried logging in and out. I have tried logging onto my desktop and it is the same there too.

How can this issue be fixed? I am not happy with my playlist as a result, so annoying :(

I uninstalled the app on my phone and then reinstalled it and that seemed to correct the error. Hope it helps!

Hello @Dale Jones 

We are sorry to hear that. Can you share with us some more information about this issue, please?

What device are you using for Deezer? Is it happening on the desktop app, the mobile app or the web browser?

Hello @Dale Jones ]

Thanks for letting us know.

Could you please perform these troubleshooting steps on your Deezer app and your Android:

If you are using the battery saving mode on your device, turn it off while you are carrying out this test.

  • Go to your device settings ➡ Apps & Notifications ➡ Deezer ➡ Storage & Cache ➡ Clear Cache
  • Open the Deezer app ➡ Gearwheel in the top right corner ➡ Log out at the bottom of the page
  • Turn off then on your device
  • Log in to Deezer
  • Stream a few songs and navigate in the app

Let us know how it goes, please,

Thanks :)

Hi,

When I try to play s specific song in a playlist, deezer plays another song, not the one I click to (I am not using an app, I use the web site).

The second major problem is that I can no longer manually arrange the songs in some playlists.

These are really annonying and all the support staff could say was “sorry, we are bureaucratic”. Bravo!

Please help, thank you

Hello @ppinocchio 

We are sorry to hear that. Can you let us know what browser you are using to navigate on deezer.com, please?

Also, have you tried to use the desktop app and/or the mobile app to see if you have the same issue?

Thanks :)

thank you for your prompt reply.
this happens in all browsers and I don’t want to use the app. Could deezer not make sure its services function properly?

Hello @ppinocchio 

It looks like the problem it’s related to a cache issue as I’ve tried to play different random songs in different playlists using the Deezer web browser and everything was OK.

I use Google Chrome as my web browser, so please can you please do the following your Chrome browser:


- Copy/paste chrome://settings/
- Click on Advanced in the left column
- Click on Privacy & Security in the left column
- Click on Clear browsing data on the main page
- Select All time for the time range
- Click on Clear data at the bottom right of the box

If the problem isn’t solved, uninstall Google Chrome on your device. Then reinstall it: https://www.google.com/chrome/
If prompted, click Run or Save (if you chose “Save”, double-click the download to start installing).

Thanks ;)

Thank you, I will try that

and how about not to be able to rearrange my songs (especially for larger playlists)?
