Is Deezer app optimised for macOS on M1 (silicon) chip? Has relatively high CPU usage.

Thanks @Rick P. and @Zayn-T for these answers. 
So what I now understand is that the Deezer “app” on macOS is a browser wrapper, and not a native macOS app (well, the wrapper platform is likely native macOS app, but that’s about it).

So the performance issues are not likely to improve.

I have a couple of browser wrapper applications on my system, so I will create my own wrapper and see if they happen to be any more efficient than whatever Deezer “app” has used for that purpose.

Cheers …

I just subscribed back and now I have a Mac is very disappointing that is not apple silicon ready being released 4 years ago, I’m regretting my purchase, my Mac constantly says there is an app draining the battery and you guested is Deezer.

I’d recommend “installing” Deezer as a website, what browser are you using? 

 

Doing this will still get you essentially the full featured Deezer app but without battery drain.

That’s what I’m currently doing, but still, 4 years later to the party seems not good, Spotify is really good on apple silicon I wonder why Deezer is so behind.

Hi @dugeem thanks for raising this topic. Unfortunately in coming months there isn’t anything plan to move in that direction.

Nevertheless, I have asked again if there is any plans for 2024. 

I will keep everybody update as soon as something new arise.

Apparently lazyness and uncompetence of french dev is not a legend …. they just have to check one tick in their apple dev account to allow IpadOS app on MACOS Silicon and that would be one step ahead but they just decided not to take 5 min of their precious cofee break and ignore their paying customers ( 20% price increase last year..) … M1 behind out for 3 years is a shame for anybody working on the dev team at deezer …
