Desktop App - [Mac OS / OSX} Magic Bar Support


I know the desktop app is still in Beta. It's pretty good already, but would be great if you add support for the magic bar to start, stop and skip tracks like iTunes and Spotify.



Even the not official Google Play Music app supports it! So I think it's an easy job to do.



A broader idea is to add at least a tray icon to control the flow so I don't have to always jump to the interface to skip tracks.



Platform [Desktop Mac OS / OSX]
Thank you for the suggestion, let's keep an eye on it 🙂
I'm still looking forward to Touch Bar support :)

It would also be awesome to support dark mode... these two changes would make Deezer perfect! 👍🏻

Hello!

Any news on the native Touchbar? This is something I miss about the app and would make the app more professional …

The ideal would be to work as in the image below:

 

 

Thanks for listening!!!

 


Hi there @RaphaelZ 

Thank you for reporting. We've passed the feedback to our devs and hopefully, it can be supported soon 👍🏼

how soon? I need that feature so bad


Some improvements were made with the new version of the app, @Filyppe Meneses Coelho, 4.18.

Could you please check if it works? Bear in mind, you need to restart your Mac.


Hi Rudi, doesn’t seems that this feature is working on 4.18.0

I do really agree with Filyppe, this is something that’s really missing on Mac with Touch Bar.

I really like to support the French Deezer team, but your devs should setup and be on the ‘qui-vive’ on this type of feature (Have a look to the Spotify controller for the Touch Bar...) 

Also should be great to had up phone control from your phone for the music displayed on your Mac ( Again have a look at Spotify), something that’s missing and easy to do, improving a lot the user experience!

All the best and if you can make it for Xmas, it’s all we ask! Peace.

😉✌️

 


Thanks a lot for the feedback @Frantz I'll let our devs know this is important to you too, hopefully we have it addded soon :wink:


I don’t know if could be possible, but what about changing the title of this topic to support , in general, bars,second screens and trackpad of laptops? because Asus has some models with screens on trackpad or in front of keyboard. Imagine using Deezer UI with trackpad and making other things with the main screen.

I said Asus as the first thought , sure there are more brands with this setup.


I guess we can have a different topic for those systems @walker  :thumbsup_tone2:

Hello. Deezer HAD support for touchbar. But now it gone somewhere :( 

I want to continue my deezer subscription, but without good mac os app it will be downgrade for me… :(
I know that users with macos are taking 1-7% of all of your clients, but we need a good support too… 

I leaved deezer premium right because lack of support of macos app.

 

BTW, i am an developer and have some experience in electron app developement. I will be glad to help you right with macos integrations. If you interested in cooperation - contact me with email: mk@altrecipe.com or with telegram: @altrecipe, please. 

 


Hi there @kazak1377 

Thank you very much for your detailed feedback - I'll be passing this to our developers so they're fully aware. What Mac OS X do you have?

This worked for me using latest MacOS version (macOS 10.15.2 (19C57). Had to close and re-open Deezer.

I am founder and CTO of outsourcing company. I am not looking for a job. Just want to help you with issues about macos thochbar support. Apple music working really awful and i want to switch back to deezer, but issue with media support stopping me from that 😞 So if you are willing to access help from third party developer - i will be glad to have a look at this.

Alright removing deezer from that list and adding it enabled play/pause and next/prev buttons. But there is still no support of MPNowPlayingInfoCenter, so no auto showing buttons of media control. And no song info in notifications center widget.


Thanks for reporting it @kazak1377 I'll pass your feedback to our developers!


Still nothing is done about this, 3 months and several updates later, no touch bar support yet. We are after all paying customers and this is a feature of many of our laptops which is being ignored.


Hi @Damjan Dimovski 

Thank you for your honest feedback. At the moment our team is focused on solving the emerging issues of login and HiFi playback on the desktop app, among other things that are keeping the app from running properly. It's just a matter of prioritisation - thank you for your understanding, I'll still be passing your feedback on :v_tone2:


this is how it looks when playing deezer on desktop app for mac


Hey @patrikkesic 

I've moved your comment here so that you can support an existing idea. The good news is that our devs might find some time to get this done soon - we'll keep you posted :wink:


Im really looking forward to have this working once and for all.

 

How hard can it be? Every other streaming service integrates fully with the OS. Deezer is great, but sometimes fails big on little stuff.

 

Details matter and failing a detail spoils a very good job.


Thank you for sharing with us - I completely get you @Rgallego. But it isn't about being hard, just about squeezing it in with the other features everyone needs with the resources we have :wink:

Rest assured, this is being considered by our devs in the desktop app teams :thumbsup_tone2:


Version 4.22 and this is still not working!

 

I should remind you that you advertise this on your website but it hasnt worked for months.

 

 

 

It seems to me like false advertisement.

 

This impacts also apple watch functionality.

 

Can we please have an update on this? what are your developers doing?
