Sonos Integration - Playlist Order

Hi Deezer guys!!

I’m following this discussion until 3 years…

Just for information, I’m an early adopter of Deezer. 
Me and my own family are “Deezer team” against “Spotify team” in my family and friends 😅😅. 
I have a full Sonos installation, indoor, outdoor and TV. 
 

Sorry for that, but I’m leaving Deezer to migrate to Spotify… only because it take me soooo long time to reach my last song added in my playlist…

I’m certainly not the only case…

Bye end enjoy, and hope you will develop faster for futur customer…

regards,
 

I simply can't believe that such a small fault can take over 3 years too fix. You are loosing people to Spotify. Did you fire all the developers or is it just not a priority to keep the customers in the business?

Can you provide an update on how long you are?

I will too leave to Spotify within the next month. This is so annoying.

Just checking on the status of an ability to see Deezer favorite albums on Sonos in “recently added first” order… 

I often add an album to my favorites list as a reminder to listen to it… for example after hearing about it from a friend. In those situations, when I go into Sonos and see the alphabetical list, I usually can’t remember the albums I’ve recently added--and so I give up and go back to my Qobuz favorites (which do show in ‘last added first’ order). 

I really like that Deezer has just about every artist and album I’ve ever searched for, but like others in this thread I end up questioning whether it’s worth keeping the Deezer subscription since it’s a pain to use when listening through Sonos… which I do a lot.

My suggestion would be to return favorites to Sonos in the order the subscriber last used in the Deezer app. I suspect that’s what other streaming services do, and it would probably satisfy those that like to view alphabetically as well as those like me that prefer to see the most recent albums first.

Hey @fmckinney, we don’t develop the Sonos app so I would suggest you poke this idea on the Sonos community too! 

Thank you

You might not develop the Sonos app but you are in charge of all the endpoints Sonos needs in order to fetch, update, search, and stream content from Deezer. 

No, Sonos does not offer the ability to sort playlists, but you could still return the favorite tracks playlist in the order of your choosing on your end.

What ​@fmckinney suggested is actually very sensible because your app already remembers the preferred sorting options of the favorite tracks playlist (no idea if the preference is local or stored on your end though).

But it's still literally something you have control over.
