How to fast forward/rewind for podcast playback on lock screen

Hi there!

 

I have recently moved from Spotify, and it is great, but one issue I have is when I am in the lock screen, the option to fast forward/rewind 30 seconds is not there. Only the option to completely skip to the next episode. 

I haven’t been able to find any options in the settings. 

 

I have an android by the way.

@Nina Nebo : Ali means something different from what you’re suggesting. He wants to be able to skip to the next track on the lock screen, not play it faster. That’s how I interpret it.

@ali.killilea : When your lock screen is on, swipe down from the top—you’ll see all the settings (torch, Wi-Fi), and Deezer should appear there too. If you tap it, Deezer will show up on your lock screen, and you can quickly forward or rewind a track.

Is that what you meant?

Same here, the current behaviour is inconvenient when driving a car - when you get distracted and want to rewind 30 secs - it changes the episode to a previous one. I hardly ever want to navigate between episodes, so the default behaviour of rewind/fast forward buttons being just +-30sec would be perfect.

They need to sort this! This is simple stuff.
