Like the title says, shuffle icon disappears the moment you start casting.


I wonder what possible reason you would have for this behaviour?

The feature on My Favourites which allows you to shuffle your entire library has gone. I actually may leave Deezer now. Also don't like loss of album length & most played track info either. Logo is worse. The Nov' 23 update makes the service worse.

The button is available on the web version, but it’s not in the mobile app, clearly this is some major overlook.

 

this is the #1 feature and we need it back!

Same issue. Please bring back that function.

Agree with the above. Why would you remove the ability for someone to shuffle their music library? So many things have been changed or removed in the update, which make the service worse, that you have to wonder if it was user-tested prior to release.

Hi, absolutely agree. To me this was a Number 1 feature too. It is the way I listen to Music. It was basically THE reason why I joined and paid for Deezer and not any of the other Music apps with a better catalog and better functionalities that did not offer this feature. And now it is gone?

The Deezer ad says something like “get you closer to your music”. I do not see how they intend to achieve this by removing the button that actually did that. No sense at all. 

The rest of the update I don’t really mind but the whole experience is now worse than last week. The interface is worse, the font is worse, the menues are worse. And the logo… when I suddenly noticed the logo on my phone I pannicked. For a while I thought I got it hacked with porn sites! 😂

Please please please bring it back! For the first time I seriously think of moving to another app.

please bring back the release date on albums and most importantly the shuffle all your music features... what the hell could you guys possibly been thinking when you removed these features!!!!!!!

Absolutely agree, “Shuffle all my music” was my go-to feature, and now on iOS it’s gone.

And even though I can live with the new design which I absolutely hate (it looks terrible, it looks now more like a dating app), if the “shuffle all” feature is not back shortly - I will most probably leave Deezer.

Agree if the feature isn’t reinstated soon I will be leaving Deezer

Yes. Why have they removed it? Bring it back!

All of my downloaded tracks have disappeared too? Anyone any ideas about how to get them back? Thanks

Thanks for the suggestion. I hope your devs can see how silly it seems to have to uncast, shuffle and recast vs just unhiding a button.

Take care

Hi, In the meantime you can open Deezer on your PC and shuffle your music. You will then see that it replicates on your phone when you open the mobile app. You will then be able to play around with the music player on your mobile as if the feature existed in the mobile app. 

Crazy I know, but it works and it maybe a workaround for some like me, as “shuffle my music” is the way I listen to Deezer. 

why did they remove my shuffle music from their favorites page? in the photo where it was in the old version

This was my number one feature and the predominant way I listened to music. It’s really the only feature I would truly miss on another service and now it’s gone. Please bring it back ASAP. 

DITTO. I will be looking for another service if this feature is not returned when my annual subscription is up. This feels like a breech of contract.

 

Now with the update, how can I listen all my music (albums, playlist…) in shuffle?

Yes @J.P 

Thanks for reaching out. At the moment this is set as intended behaviour. I'll pass the feedback to our devs so that your comments can add to the discussion around the development of this feature.

In the meantime, you can stop casting, shuffle your queue list and then cast again :v_tone2:

Please fix the shuffle/queue issue on chromecast. It should be a top priority. It ruins the experience. The same issue is on iOS too.

Userlevel 1

Since the new version, the shuffle button has disappeared. I can't play all my music right now. This is now only possible per playlist. This used to be possible.

Deezer recently removed shuffle my music. I am very disappointed. Flow is not the same!

Flow is like you want to have sexy time with your girlfriend, but you get her older fat sister or the nerd from her class... . You have something, but you get something else... Annoying!

Bring back shuffle my music!

If you search here in the Community you’ll find many topics regarding the shuffle option.

You can only use it on the Web and the desktop. Deezer knows about this and hopefully there will be a fix soon.

 

 

Since updating the App on android a few days ago, therebis no longer an option to shuffle my favourite tracks.

 

Please can you advise as to me the whole app is useless without that function.

So, I'll have to install my PC in the gym? Or bring my desktop with me in my car?

Hope they fix it soon!

JRR... that would be tremendous if they bring it back...and while they're at it they can bring back the year of the album and the total number of songs in your playlist!!
