shuffle isn't RANDOM... it always repeats a pattern of songs

Again, it’s not only on the Google device, though. It also happens the same way when I just use the web player directly from the Deezer site on my computer. So it’s on your end, not Google’s. It’s been like this for years. How long can it take? Anyway, hope it is resolved soon, as I said, or I will be switching to Spotify. And that would be a shame because I do prefer this service. Thanks.

I can imagine how annoying that can be @11_Rose_18 thank you for clarifying it's happening on a Google Home device. And apologies for the experience.

We've been working to solve this and other issues with the integrations in terms of playback, but it's taking quite some time. We're also depending on Google to cross over the line. I'll pass your comments to the teams working on this, to see if things can be sped up. Thank you for your support so far :pray_tone2:

Sorry you feel that way @11_Rose_18 thank you for your support so far!

It depends on each platform (about the fix). Are you experiencing the same shuffle in which feature and in which app? Please help us tailor your feedback so that it's more effective here at Deezer :thumbsup_tone2:

It’s when I play my own playlists either by asking my Google Mini and requesting it be shuffled or if I use the desktop player and click the shuffle. It makes no difference, they both behave the same way and play the songs in the same “shuffled order” every time. And I do currently have a subscription so that makes no difference either. It’s highly annoying as I really want a totally random shuffle.

Am very close to moving over to Spotify because of this. I want the shuffle to actually be random. There’s no use to it if it just plays the same songs in the same order always. Seems many have complained about this for a long time now & yet it hasn’t been fixed. It’s a deal-breaker for me. 
Thanks.

Hey @Coskun.KILICASLAN 

Thanks for the feedback, much appreciated. In which device and app are you shuffling with the same order? Let us know so that I can personalise the feedback to our devs :thumbsup_tone2:

I suffer the same problem

Shuffle does not shuffle

It always plays the same songs with the same order.

I hate it.

Fix it asap

Hi @karms we’re sorry to hear it keeps on repeating track. Could you please let me know the exact number of songs you have downloaded? Could you please let me know where exactly you click on when starting your Shuffle mode?

In any case, please start your shuffle with a different song every single time and make sure to skip the song when you do not want to hear it again. This should improve your experience and shuffle suggestions very quickly :wink:

Why does the shuffle feature get stuck on the same songs or genre of songs. Shuffle should be random songs in your favorites playlist right??? I download so many songs and i never get to hear all my list. I do pay for the premium service. Please fix or im jumping to apple music

Yes,  I was just thinking about this… I want my playlist to automatically shuffle for anyone who happens to listen to it, instead of it playing in the order songs were added.. Please make this happen :wink:

yeah , many thanks.. but then again :

1
with a big enough playlist - songs in a playlist - Shuffle (which i think is based on the idiot idea of 'what you listened to most' ) builds itself ... by Playing always same songs gives 'rank'(priority) to same songs (whatever your preferences are, songs are ordered by AI )

2
the other 2 options of listening a playlist:
add order and reverse add order (...... for both there's always an order of playing the songs )

so if i create a playlist (considering it's done by me i like All its contents) how can i listen to them songs without listening always same song order . wait for hours to get to its end? click next 300 times? start today and listen to it tomorrow?


thanks
