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

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.

Hello there,

I'm re-launching this topic: is Deezer still working on an ARM (for Apple Silicon) version of its desktop application?
ElectronJS has supported arm64 for years now. I don't understand what's stopping developers from releasing the arm64 version now, even though Spotify already has.

Perhaps you're developing a native Deezer application to improve performance?

Given that it’s probably not even possible to buy an x86 based Mac anymore, that this issue still exists is a de-facto demonstration of where on priority list this app is and how well the team is equipped.  IOW -- extremely low and very poorly 😢

Don’t dream about it, it’s not the same as replace app icon with a new one 😁

I have a Mac M1, have the same issue. I use to the web player instead.

Any update on a native app for MacOS (M2 chip here) to replace the -CPU eater- Electron app?

@Piou no update or ETA for a native app for MacOs
Thanks 

It's mind-boggling: an Electron application that ignores the community's request for years to simply recompile for a different processor target, given how much time has passed - this reveals the priorities in the minds of the company's product managers, when application redesign is more important than basic functionality. Seriously, that is only one reason not to use the app.

For anyone else who’s given up waiting, Tidal’s Mac app has been Apple Silicon native forever.

Tidal have listened and no longer force their proprietary lossy MQA format on listeners, instead offering CD quality FLAC as part of their standard subscription for about the same cost as Deezer (they even have some High Resolution tracks but that’s not proven to have any audible benefit).

What is a real benefit is Tidal Connect, which lets you easily stream your music in original quality to streamers like Wiim from both MacOS and iOS without enduring lossy AirPlay.

At this point, there is not a single reason to stay with Deezer so I’m jumping to Tidal when my annual plan ends in a few weeks.

If you want to effect change at Deezer, I suggest you vote with your wallets and follow suit. 

That’s plain ignorance in modern “agile” development teams. I go with you brother, Tidal it is.
