Deezer is still not available on Google Home in Belgium. It’s a shame need I to switch over to Spotify?

For the technically-minded users, there is a solution, if you have a) a router with possibility for vpn tunnels b) a vpn provider.

 

Take an exit node in France, and route 142.250.0.0/15; 2a00:1450::/32 and 216.58.192.0/19 (Google Home Foyer and Google User Content ranges) through it. Restart your google home devices, restart your phone with the Google Assistant used to link deezer, and presto: Google thinks you're in "la douce France", and all will work.

Hi there, we are doing our best to bring Deezer on Google Home in more and more countries, unfortunately this is not only down to us.

I have changed your topic into an idea, so other users can vote for it. Hopefully this speeds up the process 😉

My question is: ¿ if this is not only down to Deezer, who else is involved to bring
Deezer to GOOGLE HOME ? Google itself ?

Obviously there are no technical difficulties as Deezer is available on google home in many countries France, UK,...but not in Belgium!!!!

We agree to use google home in english as long we can use it with deezer?

Even if it's not up to deezer...whe can't you communicate better about what steps you've undertaken, what is the effective reason why deezer is not available and what is the next step and when.

After more than 2 years waiting, time to move on spotify, I assume?

Hi there @jj courtens

Thank you for the feedback - we should be able to communicate better, especially about our progress.
In relation to this subject, I've checked with our team and it doesn't seem that it'll be happening in the near future - although this might change. This is because of multiple reasons, but it mostly doesn't depend on us - and I'm talking about Google.
I'm closely monitoring the expansion and which countries should benefit from this next, so if anything changes I'll be here to update the topic. In the meantime thank you for your patience and for being such a loyal user!

Hi
Seen as France the UK etc. all have support for deezer on Google Home products I was wondering if this could also come to other countries like Belgium and the Netherlands.
Thank you

Hi,

I can understand this can take some time, but really, more than 2 years...

I finally have google home compatible devices at home and I will probably switch to another supported service soon if this stays unavailable. It doesn't make any sense while it is available to UK / FR users but not for belgium.

If there exists any work-around, being forced to use english or french, I do not mind though...

I would rather like to stay at Deezer, but without a (rough) timeline, you push us to Spotify, I'm afraid. Now testing Spotify to see how it works on Google Home. 😞
