What comes next will inspire you, maybe even flow … ahm … blow you away.

 

Flow remains.

Flow becomes more special.

Flow gets the flow.

 

Because from now on, other flavors are available in addition to the standard flow; and that 6 times.

  • You & Me

  • Motivation

  • Chill

  • Melancholy

  • Focus

  • Party

You & Me

The flow for those newly in love and those in need of cuddles.

Motivation

It's Monday and the week is like chewing gum? Then motivation is just right for you.

Also the perfect support for your sport.

Chill

Just put your feet up and relax ...

Melancholy

It's very sad here. Loneliness, broken love, heartbreak, losses…

Miss the boat… *sigh*

Focus

If ‘Motivation’ and ‘Chill’ are not enough for you, you will find it here.

Fit as a fiddle…

Party

Faster music? Older music? 80s trash?

Then just start the party and dance...

But be careful: May also contain tracks from Boney M.

 

:bulb: The Flow moods are available for all iOS and Android users

Has your standard flow changed noticeably or are you just referring to the new moods?

I'm talking about standard flow. I don't use the moods. They're even worse.

May be the next step user will be able somehow indicate in application in which mood she/he at the moment while listening music. Or somehow mark in her/his favorities which track fits to which mood  from user’s point of view

This new Flow is awful. Old version of Flow was much better. New Flow just mixes moods and genres to much. I need to pick a mood in order to keep the similar mood playing but I can’t always pick exact mood and rock with it because it is to limiting. It is annoying. Old mood selector which is still present in combination with old Flow was just awesome. Flow was reason for me to choose Deezer but now it ain’t better than other platforms. 

With new Flow I find my self skipping songs all the time because they differ to much than previous that was playing. I’m really disappointed with this new change. I hate it. Deezer is awesome but I feel let down with this update. 

New mood options are awesome idea if you have particular mood in mind but you guys at Deezer just destroyed Flow for some reason. Couldn’t old version of Flow function with new mood selector???? 

The flow shouldnt be affected in web app, as it’s only mobile app new flow .

Party for me please :) 

The only problem is that it's not diverse enough... I get only reggae but I love dance and more. And I get the same music in Motivation as well. 

But I love this feature! Lots of potential!! :)

Well, I have tried the new flow feature, the begging it wasn’t good enough, but over time those moods will get better and better over days. 
I know Spotify has better music recommendations but Spotify’s app is too scattered, I prefer Deezer’s simplicity over Spotify.

Hello @The Resolute 

There’s an ideas thread started today by @dee_dirk that is worth adding your vote into, so that Deezer know we’d love the feature on the desktop versions. Vote here for a desktop version.

It’s a really cool feature! And so well integrated within the app! Tried it and working very well with nice suggestions . . . I was wondering if and when is it coming to the desktop version??

It’s the same beloved FLOW. But better ❤️

This is my "melancholy" list. Long before flow, ported from another sevice. Maybe the Flow AI can learn something from it. It doesn't only have to be Sinatra and King Cole, although they are great! Here goes:

Melancholy or PARTY
 

but I have questions…

as of now, when I ask flow to change moods, it will open mix page so I could choose between them. And let me tell you, THEY HAVE NO FREAKING COMPATIBILITY WITH MY TASTE!

Like, the most random things ever! The roadtrip mix is FRENCH acoustics 😶 (I listen to GERMAN industrial 😐😶)

pls. It won’t be like that yeah? It will be as relevant as the main Flow, right?

I agree with you the mixes needed some improvement. This new flow future is a good start...

I am already gone from Deezer. Spotify took me.

Their discovery tools made me really to discover. Glad you like flow, but for people who want to discover, Deezer is not the right tool. Instead of walking us away, they could just take it as a feedback how to improve. I guess it’s too much for a Deezer 🙂 I don’t regret leaving them.

I just have 6 mo Hifi remaining, so I am customer, and there is no need to go before that.

Then when canceled is running out, I will delete my account and never look back.

App which does not value users opinion is not worth anyones time, not even yours.

 

Like you, we’re Deezer users not ‘Deezer’ or their costumer service 😅 No need to take any conflicts on Deezer’s behalf. 
I mean they’re eager for their job and improvements, they value feedbacks (at least from my own experiences with them).
 

It’s just that, imagine putting so much effort and time on improving sth or pulling out a cool new feature (or sth you, yourself think would be so sick and cool). Then present it to your audience just to confront with some comments (not related directly to what you’ve just dropped) about how you couldn’t satisfy them (audiences) and YOU WILL NEVER be able…

 

It’s disappointing and like it’s not kind of you to hit anyone like that… 

We can drop our opinions and general feedbacks on relevant topics, no need to letdown their excitement. It’s not kind.

Not really what I wanted, but I was not able to say that as Legends. Which they removed.

For some this may be perfect fine. Party mood? I am always on it listening HARD DANCE, I don’t need flow for that. What I need to DISCOVER music. I get which mood ever, it plays same music over and over and over and over again. Same favourites all week long. Where is simple toggle 70% new and 30% known toggle? The best thing about it, it works for everyone, you just slide it for your %…

I was so fed with flow, that I discover and listen elsewhere now.

Playlists updating all week long!! With Deezer FLOW I was shortly out of ideas.

I think discovering music on Deezer is poor especially if you listen something else than charts.

Then track mixes are quite bad or non-existent.

Sending feedback about poor flow and track mixes and this is what you get…

Music for the bed with your spouse… well I am single.

I think they get you now. Its not only about what you want…

if you don't like it feel free to go.. nobody ask you to stay. 

I know you are frustrated....  but be the smart guy and leave if you don't like deezer anymore.

There are still a lot people that likes deezer. And you will not chance that in your own. Spend your free time wirh some fun... and not frustration...

Haha. You are really a joke.. its hard for you right.. to leave te community and only listen the last 6 months your music on deezer before you leaving… without any post here... 

 

Its really funny you tell others that deezer isnt worth MY time and MY money. You arent in the position  to tell others what to do..  

Do your thing.. on spotify.. and sell your private life to a company that want to know everything  about you…

That your choice and we respect that.. so now your respect to use who loves deezer..

Thanks @dee_dirk, that’s a perfect answer to my question. :grinning:  The average figures of new>good are pretty good and overall it’s showing great promise for another new source of discovering new music. 

What percentage of new tracks do people get generally on flow for those who’ve been here a while? 

Hey @Zayn-T 

I was allowed to test the new Flow a few weeks ago and ran each mood 8-10 times with 20 songs each and documented / rated everything. Here is my result:

 

Please note: The Flow is completely different for each user, so of course my results only apply to me. For me, however, it confirmed the previous feeling that 'You & Me' is not providing good enough music for me. :smile:

Great feature, although this one was not my idea of "Melancholy" 😛 But thanks for reminding me of the highschool years headbangin' fuel 🤘

 

 

Something else: Why when taping on any of "Made for you" mixes header (for example tap on "Friday Releases" text above the song cover on now playing screen) is not taking me to the respective list, but instead it slides the page down? Make it the same as for albums and playlists.

I’m really enjoying this new way of using Flow.  What percentage of new tracks do people get generally on flow for those who’ve been here a while? 

This is a good writeup I saw about it earlier. Deezer one-ups Spotify

 

Hey @Seven2All 

You will definitely get used to it. :smiley:
In a preliminary stage of the new FLOW there was only a classic list. That was rather colorless.

I like it... Works good, but it only looks way to collorful... But that's my opinion.
