When listening to "Favorites Tracks" in the Sonos app, the music is listed from oldest to newest. When listening to "Favorites Tracks" using the Deezer app my favorites is listed from newest to oldest. Can you please update the Sonos app to list the music from most recent to oldest. It would provide for a better user experience which matches what we already get via the Deezer app or Online.

I contacted Sonos and they provided the below, which must be completed by Deezer:

Many thanks for getting in touch with us.

This is certainly good feedback, and although we cannot provide a timeline, we will be certain to take this on board.

As it happens all services on Sonos are developed by the music services themselves, by using our provided API, however, any features can be submitted by the service's own development team by following all necessary documentation, and developer support at this link.

When contacting Deezer they advise I post it here in the community.

Any update on this as it’s still the same ‘oldest to newest’ - frustrating.

Hello, please provide a status on this. It should be a simple fix to have the interface list the tracks in the same order that we have them in the app and online.

Do you have an update here? 
It’s getting really annoying now...

Hi there. Sonos app is developed by Sonos. We pass all feedback on to them, but we don't have an estimated time when/if it will be improved.

And on the Sonos side it’s stated they display how they receive it from Deezer meaning you should just reverse the list order that you send to them. 
Said this before, but it’s truly annoying...

Hello!

I’ve a request more or less similar :

When I display the Deezer “Albums” of my (Deezer) collection in Sonos, they are sorted alphabetically. But I want them sorted by “date” (that is, those I have most recently added to my Deezer collection first, then the oldest...)

I’ve contacted Sonos, and they have told me that only Deezer can generate this “albums sorted by date added” option.

With Spotify or Apple Music on Sonos this option exists already.

Thank you in advance to change/add this.

Hi @Gwenddoleu 

You're right, it's simple and useful - thank you for your support. The good news is that our new Sonos experience is under development. As soon as we have more concrete info, we'll be sharing here in the community :thumbsup_tone2:

Hi there!

 

Been following some threads about this sorting thing here and there. Are you guys working on a Sonos integration in the Deezer app, so that you can select Sonos as a device to listen on? Like Spotify has? Would make things easier, then the sorting thing is solved basically… My aplogies if this was already asked somewhere else :) 

 

Thanks a lot guys!
