SONOS - be able to control SONOS via Deezer App instead of SONOS App


Missing feature that Spotify has: choosing Sonos wifi speaker directly from Deezer iOS app. Currently you need to use Sonos app to play deezer on your Sonos wifi system.

Highly welcome function!

Thanks for the suggestion, I passed on to the right team!


I'm giving a vote too @Gracyanowski :fingers_crossed_tone2:


Also for Andoid app


Amended the title already, @Stingraynl thanks a lot :wink:


There has been years since this feature, and there is no solution yet. I've came again from another service to check if something has changed and nope. I must return again to spotify because I cannot control my sonos from your app, its not that difficult brou, but you keep loosing people because of this.

 

Neither you, Tidal, Apple music, google music, just spotify can control sonos from their own app, its annoying.

Thanks and sorry for the angriness.


Hello @Julio.Cesar.Romero.Perez, thanks for taking the time to write to us, and don’t worry about being angry, it’s understandable. We do need to work on improving this, it’s just a matter of finding the time between the different projects.

Thanks anyway for your honest feedback!


I know you guys are working on it; but it definitely needs to be a feature. It’s UX at its finest to be able to just transition (through Audio Airplay 2) to different devices. Assuming you’re working on this anyway with iOS 14 around the corner and the functionality it brings with AirPods Pro.

 

Voted for this feature; but keep up the good work!

To confirm here; I‘m referring to Mac OS X primarily as well. Just realised I can stream directly to Sonos through the Deezer app now! :)


This is so important!  I’m looking for a new streaming service once Google Play Music is killed, and this is the one feature keeping me from switching to Deezer.


Hey @Jordantb @dgelfand 

Thanks a lot for the fresh feedback on this idea and obviously for the votes. Very appreciated.

It helps us, the community team, to give that little push to our developers. Hopefully this can be developed in the near future :v_tone2:


Thanks @Rudi , I'm eagerly awaiting the opportunity to give you my money!


Casting directly to Sonos from GPM was great. YTM doesn't have this feature. The Sonos app is terrible and doesn't give full choice of Deezer content.

 

If Deezer could add the ability to cast directly to Sonos, it would sure make a lot of us happy, especially those like me that switched to Deezer from GPM.


Just to chime in, the Sonos app is terrible as it doesn’t allow selecting more Flows that the main Flow. In order to use any of the daily or weekly flows, you have to first use the Deezer app to save it to a playlist, and then find that playlist in Sonos. That’s really annoying since Flows update so often (which is a good thing!).


Our revamped integration with Sonos is work-in-progress, @yottabit so we really appreciate your contributions here in the community. Stay tuned for future updates here :thumbsup_tone2:


Yes please - this is a deal breaker. Won’t pay unless I get this


Please vote for the suggestion above @OneFineDay and thank you for your support :pray_tone2:


Hi there! I just switched from Spotify to Deezer. I was in LOVE and totally refreshed until I realized that you can't use the Deezer app to play through Sonos. Is their an eta on when this function will be added? Sadly might have to go back to Spotify because of this. The Sonos app is terrible and you lose so much functionality when using it - therefore I never use it. Darn! Au mon dieu....

 


Hey @Haley Havana 

Sorry we're unable to offer that kind of control at the moment. Please vote for this idea here too, so that we can add more support to the project.

There isn't an ETA at the moment because it's a big feature to develop, but in the meantime, we're also working to improve the Sonos app integration. If you can't stick around, we understand, but please subscribe to the topics by voting so that you can get notifications from us and give us another chance once we get there :v_tone2:

Hi @Rudi, what is going to improve in the Sonos app integration?


Hey @Dennis.Bakker 

You'll be able to access more Deezer features via the app, not just the current ones. It's under development as we speak, so once I've got more details, I'll be sharing here. I hope to get more news in the next couple of months :thumbsup_tone2:


Sonos apps (Sonos S1 and S2) are really bad. I've been with deezer for such a long time but if I can't access my Sonos via deezer I'm going to give up on deezer and go to Spotify 😣. Any solution now?


Not yet @Patouchka 

Our teams are working on improving the features via the Sonos app, so that's the first step we're taking. Then we still have a big project to tackle here, so I encourage you to vote for it too :thumbsup_tone2:


This is so important. I got a promo code for 4 months of free Deezer Premium and I still chose to keep paying for a competing streaming service because its Sonos integration is way better. I really want that same concept of being able to play my music anywhere (laptop, phone, Sonos) and control it from anywhere (laptop, phone, Sonos).


Thank you for registering your contribution to the topic here @peted I can certainly get your point, and will forward your comments to the teams here at Deezer :v_tone2:


I hope you build Sonos integration into the Deezer app soon. I switched to Deezer from Tidal as I prefer the Deezer curated playlists. Sonos can be controlled from the Tidal app, so I hope Deezer follows suit.
