Windows/Mac Deezer Desktop/Web App - Feedback for improvements

 

Our Desktop/Web app can improve, and we need your help :desktop:

This is the space for all those improvement calls you kindly make to us when looking at how to make our desktop and web apps better platforms.

What should I post here? :thinking:

  • if the app needs User Interface or User Experience (UI/UX) enhancements, let us know
  • if the app should be compatible with certain devices or audio outputs, we're with you
  • if there's a cool integration we should consider, shout out
  • and if any feature is missing, don't forget to mention

This topic is intended for version 4.20.0 and above, and for our browser version :floppy_disk:

Just wanted to give a thumbs up for a well implemented feature. The normalize audio setting is available from the main screen and takes effect instantly. This is good, I can turn it on for casual listening to mixes and quickly turn it off when listening to a complete album.

Hi

For Mac users would be great the native apple silicon compatibility as well intregration with the touch bar or control buttons for the macbook air.

As well in the app when the screen goes off the next song does not play, which does not happen in the browser player.

Thx

Hey @torales 

That's on our radar (an app for the M1). The new version of our app, coming soon, should fully integrate with the touch bar and control buttons. We'll just need you to test it :wink:

Thanks a lot for the feedback on the feature @snaut it's always super nice to get good criticism on stuff we work hard to provide our users with :hugging:

It would be great if the exe for the Windows app was made readily available, rather than being pushed to the Microsoft store. I bet there's a lot of people who don't touch those apps, like me, and would appreciate the ability to download an exe, which can be installed as needed.

Can you brighten the color of the top menu bar on Windows app? I don’t know if this is controlled by you or by the UWP API. I drag the app around a lot and it would be nice if the draggable top bar was a bit easier to see in the daylight. Sometimes it’s the little things :)

Also, is there any way to “follow” progress on the upcoming Alexa skill update?

Please make it when you click the Back/Previous Song button, it replays the song (like on mobile) instead of going back to the previous song that was played.

Hey @slunks 

Thanks for the feedback!
Here's a link you can bookmark: https://www.deezer.com/desktop/download/artifact/win32/x86/5.0.0

Hi @wildcardNS I've passed that feedback before as well, it's not that time yet but definitely agree with you we need to tackle it :relaxed:

I'm also waiting for an update on our Alexa skill, I just know it's work-in-progress. But you can follow any developments by staying tuned to our community, it'll be properly announced :wink:

Thanks, @MattNicholas interesting suggestion, it could be aligned with mobile as you said :thumbsup_tone2:

On the latest version of the app for Android, the one with visual improvements specially on artist pages, which is really awesome kudos for that, however, the submenu to get to "Do not recommended this artist" seems to have been removed.

If it has been removed I would truly appreciate if you can restore this feature at least as an optional feature.

 

Kudos for the good work!

So the link for macOS would be: https://www.deezer.com/desktop/download/artifact/darwin/x64/5.0.0 

But what’s new with it? and is it final? It’s not being pushed yet on the release channel (or autoupdate)…

Best,

Rudi

Thank you @HatefulPanda great feedback! I'm sure the feature wasn't removed - it could be a bug. We'll look into it! :relaxed:

Hey @jeremybonan nothing in terms of features yet, it was an update around the framework we use to operate the app, fixing many bugs in one go. It isn't final, we're already testing 5.10 :grin:

And it hasn't been pushed via autoupdate yet to all users (we always release our apps gradually) - I just gave my beloved community users, including you, a heads up so that you don't have to wait for it to autoupdate :wink:
