Can I turn off "Recommended" when playing a playlist?

Using the free version, I generally play my own playlists - but it really annoys me that after three or four songs, Deezer starts playing “Recommended” tracks that are not in my playlist - and not just one, but four, five, six... The reason I have playlists is that I want to choose what I listen to, and these recommendations ruin it. I could maybe understand one, and then they could give me an advert if I click Next - but not so many that I run out of Nexts and have to switch to another playlist…

Hi @awsteenoh, thank you for your message.

The ability to disable Automated Recommendations is currently only accessible on the Web and Desktop app.

Sorry for any inconvenience caused.

5 months later...Any update on this? Can you turn off on iOS app yet? I do not see anything in the app settings.

@LDavidH oh that's pity!!! Thank you so much for answer my questions!!!​

No, unfortunately that's not how it works - they're separate apps. So nowadays I basically only use the desktop version - then I can also play albums and playlists unshuffled!

@Leonídia.Deezer thank you! If I turn it off in the web, will it be off in my cellphone too??? Or doesnt work like that?

Hi @AlfonsoSaGo @LDavidH, unfortunately the option to turn off Automated Recommendations is only available in Web and Desktop app.

Yes there's definitely a switch for that but I can't look for it now as I don't have premium!

I mean, when you play one single song and once this song is over you have like 100 other songs that you don't want to hear but are recomendations! 

With Premium it doesn't do it - then it just plays the playlist straight through as it should.

And do you know how to remove it if I have the premium version?

Hey @LDavidH

Sorry about it. 

To remove that you must have the paid account, as the free account is with some limitations like this one. 😐

Take care.
