Thanks for your feedback ​@artemis.pigeon. I will pass it to our devs and product team but I can’t guarantee an ETA for your suggestions.

Have you tried the quick access feature?

Please add a setting in app that allows for changing what the X button does for closing the app. Kind of tired of force closing the app after trying to close the program and it only hiding in background.

I literally just went through all the trouble of finding out how to leave feedback to ask for this. I want the X button to close/exit the app. I do not want it to just go hang out in the system tray. This should be an option, just like every other piece of software. :|

It’s 2026. Give people choices. Thanks. 


Hello, I have the desktop app on my windows computer and I’ve noticed that when I drag the open application across the screen it will exit out of the application ¾ of the time, I'm not sure what's causing it.  

I also can’t seem to find a way to update the application in the app, it’s possible I'm not looking in the right menus but that would be extremely helpful. 

I would also like to suggest making a desktop client for Linux computers and possibly a discord connection.

I tried to reproduce the issue on my Windows 11 laptop, but no matter how often I switched between the open and playing Deezer window, it didn’t crash for me. Could you share a video with this issue?

As far as I know (and could find), there isn’t an option to manually update Deezer. Normally this shouldn’t be a problem, because Deezer notifies you when an update is available, and you can then choose whether or not to install it.

There are already several threads discussing the Linux app for Deezer. Unfortunately, the current answer is still that there won’t be an official Deezer Linux version.

On my Linux Mint PC, I use the unofficial Deezer app that you can find in the App Store.

Bonjour,

Je trouve que la navigation entre albums mérite d’être améliorée sur l’application desktop Mac, sur un petit détail au moins : le retour arrière. 

Quand je consulte un album et que je reviens en arrière pour consulter les autres, l'application me ramène à chaque fois en haut de la fiche artiste et non au niveau de la section "Albums" / "EP". Ce n'est pas grand chose mais il serait plus fluide et plus agréable de rester au niveau des albums dans ce genre d'interaction. 

De même, un onglet "Albums" ou "Discographie" tout en haut de la fiche artiste aux côtés des "Top titres" / "Artistes similaires" / "Playlist" etc. serait bien appréciable pour aller directement à l’essentiel et ne pas avoir à descendre la page jusqu’à cette section. 

D’autant qu’avant d’y arriver, je dois passer par des infos qui ne m’intéresse pas spécialement : sortie la plus populaire, en concert.

Finalement, se rapprocher de l’expérience utilisateur que je peux avoir sur l’application android !

Merci, bonne journée ✌️

Hello,

I’m  new to Deezer and I have been impressed with the iOS app but the Windows desktop app is giving me some weird paper cuts. I don’t want to be too negative/harsh but the settings are so much less fleshed out compared to the mobile app (I’m sure this is where most of the audience is as well so I get it). Mostly surrounding look and feel. I was blown away by how much you could customize the iOS app and that is really important to me. I was surprised to see Windows/web is so much more static comparatively. 

I have a few other grievances I’d like to be made known. Firstly the volume control is just weird. You could practically rent out the empty space on the bottom bar where the media controls are. Despite all this empty space, you still need to hover over the volume button (NOT CLICK!!) and then you can adjust the volume. You are not able to adjust the volume with the scroll wheel either when hovering over it despite that being native behavior pretty much everywhere else with a volume slider. 

Another grievance is there is zero way to adjust sorting on the playlist sidebar… what is up with that? This would be acceptable for a beta desktop app but for production I can’t believe there is no way to adjust this side bar. It just is how it is…With quick access, I’d guess most people would want to pin a favorite playlist here (since you cant sort by most played on the dedicated playlist siderbar!!), but I only can pin artists, albums, flow, “by deezer” and tracks.. What??? Lastly, there is no easy way to tell what playlist is currently playing. Again these are all just paper cuts but these are weird ones to have for such a mature product. It gives me this feeling of the people who develop it don’t even use it. Not trying to be harsh but you very clearly have a capable team that has it dialed in on the iOS app. I’d love to see similar efforts happen on the desktop/web experience.
