Request to Increase Favorites Track Limit

Hey Deezer Support,

It's been around 2 years since the favorites track limit was bumped up to 10,000 tracks, and  finally I've hit that limit last week. I've had to resort to using a "Favorites" playlist as a workaround, but it's still inconvenient.

Is there any chance you could increase the favorites track limit beyond 10,000? I would really appreciate it! Being able to save more of my favorite tracks would greatly enhance my Deezer experience.

Thanks a lot for your consideration. Looking forward to your response!

Hi @sdd there are no plans to increase this number in the very short term, but I have passed your feedback to our devs and if I have any update I’ll let you know.
Apologies for the inconvenience this may cause.
Thanks

Hi ​@Jaime.Deezer ! I've recently migrated from Spotify to Deezer and unfortunately, 3k of my 13k favorite titles there couldnt' migrate due to the limit and I couldnt resolve myself to remove 3k tracks I actually love to fit this limit; and following the import, I simply cannot use the intended favorite feature on new titles from great Flow recommendations, and need a workaround playlist from day one… It's not a great first time user experience for music nerds 😅

May I bump this request too ? 40-50k would be very much sufficient for the upcoming few years of usage and musical exploration to come, I think

More context about : I actively listen to a LOT of underground / upcoming artists and niches genres from all around the world.

I'd probably personally reach the 25k liked titles in around five years of use, as I explore a lot of upcoming / underground artists [usually listen to around 7-10k titles per year, a third of which usually end up as favorites during very active years].

cf. my latest 2022-2024 spotify usage stats joined with this post

Quick Update after a few days of usage : Turns out, a lot of tracks I love and seek out ended up not being liked due to the limit, and not being able to re-like them (to have the heart flag when looking for it and short listing them) is very frustrating.

Half of Deezer's main flagship feature-set is simply unavailable due to this issue, as a user:
1. I can't feed Flow's [Favorites mode] algorithm with all my actual likes,
2. Which makes Flow's [Exploration mode] recommend musics I already know but couldn't like;
3. nor use the likes as a manual shortlist of all the music I love to listen to,
4. or keep track of interesting and engaging new niche finds for future listenings…

Right now, this 10k limit simply cuts very active / engaged users, 'explorers' according to Spotify´s last year's user classification, from engaging with the available content and breaks flagship features from working properly. 

I'm very reluctantly forced to think about cancelling my Deezer subscription and going back to Spotify, given no feedback nor resolution in the very near future; the platform is just not working as intended, as of 2025-08-27, and I can't really justify paying for a platform if it simply doesn´t work as intended.

If this 10k favorited tracks limit is due to some kind of data volumetry issue, if you need more Data Engineers / Data Scientists to solve this operational constraint, I'd be down for an interview and help out on the technical side. 

I'm hopeful to see any feedback on this issue, I really like deezer's Flow and Hi Res audio quality. Please do your best, I'm cheering for y'all.

I was in the process of migrating from Spotify, then learned about the 10K limit. With all the motivation to get the hell out of Spotify, this is a nonstarter: I have >15K in my “Liked Songs”. Sorry, I’m out until this changes.

What to do if you reach the Favorites Track Limit on Deezer 10,000 tracks :

Create a "Favorites" Playlist: To save more than 10,000 favorite tracks, you can create a new playlist and add your additional favorites to it.

Still doesn't fix the issues that arises in the Flow algorithm due to the liked limit.
I've unfortunately been forced to go back to Spotify, waiting for a solution from Deezer about: 
1. the liked limit,
2. and the track's radio being simply non-functional on niche-enough content + overriding the current queue.

The Flow algorithm not only uses your saved favorite tracks, also your saved favorite artists, albums and playlists (now raised to 5k max. tracks), so saving your favorite tracks in another new playlist makes sense, but is not as comfortable as having them all in your Favorite Tracks list. Flow uses your listening history as well, so that also counts for the algorithm.

Thanks for the precision, that was to be expected.

I, indeed, did not manually add each of my 3k missing tracks to a manual playlist, and had a freshly created account without listening history. So Flow did, indeed, recommend exploratory tracks based on a partial view of my listening habits.

It does however showcase a shortcoming of the current official Spotify to Deezer migration golden path : Importing Liked Tracks through the official tool [1] still fails after 10k tracks, and the remaining tracks (3k in my case), are not stored into secondary playlists when the limit is reached. Flow's algorithm does, without manual intervention, lose information.

A CSV of the missing tracks is available IIRC, but that is still, in my case, 3.000 whole tracks to manually search for, and add to a playlist to provide any trace of missing likes to feed Flow with my full listening history. Assuming 5 seconds of manual intervention per track, that still requires 4 hours of uninterrupted manual mitigation, to get Flow running as expected.

Is there a recommended way to import this CSV automatically into a playlist ?

You could upload this CSV file to TuneMyMusic or Soundiiz and transfer it to a new Deezer playlist. Not sure if it would work with the free TuneMyMusic feature as a Deezer customer and if they have already updated their app to the new raised max. Deezer limits, but probably it is worth a try. Soundiiz would probably afford their Premium subscription for transferring several thousand tracks at once.

I recently migrated from Spotify, and had the rude awakening of the 10,000 tracks limit.  Complete showstopper.  I want to like Deezer, I want to migrate to Deezer, but the 10,000 track limit is an automatic disqualification.

I want to like Deezer, but I’m conscious every time I like a track, knowing that I’m inching toward my limit, which is, frankly, ridiculous.
