Hi Henry, I haven't heard of any plans yet, but happy to pass this on to the team. I'm sure they're looking into it 🙂

Hello there, is there any new information about this ?

I'm sorry, but we don't have any update yet. We will keep passing this feedback on to our developers and hopefully it will be implemented soon! 😉

Most part of sales from HMD are feature phones, so it has sense. My vote!

Thanks for the feedback @walker

Hey @isaina no updates about this yet, but we've been presenting our ideas to product managers recently. So hopefully with more votes this can be bumped in the queue.

KaiOS is the world’s third major mobile platform now...so if you can develop one for KaiOS you can beat Spotify in the race :) Since most of your apps are web-based, and you already have a JS library for Deezer, I think creating a KaiOS app is entirely plausible. Maybe call it ‘Deezer Lite’ like how Spotify does it on Android with ‘Spotify Lite’?

That's what I'm talking about @jkelol111 you elevated this idea to another level :relaxed:

I'll be passing your comments to our developers for consideration. Especially because we're looking into having a 'Lite' version for mobiles with less capacity :thumbsup_tone2:

Hi, i got a smartphone and a Deezer account, i want a small form factor phone!!!

A lot of people are tired of huge, heavy phones to carry around all day long.

I want to buy a Nokia with KaiOS, but the only thing is holding me is not having Deezer on it.

Please, make it happend!! just like symbian support, i love Deezer for that.

Hi there @Pachuli2008 

Thanks for contributing with your vote and reply! This could be something Deezer can benefit from a lot :v_tone2:


Yes! I’m thinking into disconnect me from the common smartphones, I just to have Music and Whatsapp, so I have all my music library into deeezer. I think this is the only one thing that is stopping me from buying a kaiOS phone.

I wonder which music service will bring some kind of support to KaiOS.

It appears more and more people are considering feature phones and laying their smartphone to rest.

Being one of those people, the moment a quality music service becomes available for that platform, I will be going with that service fully.

Why not allow the community to create an unofficial frontend of sorts. Proprietary bits can stay that way, if there is web interface or even a command line version that would allow coders to build an overlay?

Just thoughts, but if Deezer does not wish officially support KaiOS, this is an option that many other companies exploit. It becomes a “use at own risk” type of thing, but would create an immediate feedback mechanism for Deezer to see if it is viable to officially support.

Howabout it?  :grin:

Thanks Rudi. I am personally willing to explore building a frontend for KaiOS if anything comes of this.

Best.

Hi, I'm just here to chime in and say that I would also very much look forward to a KaiOS app. I'm switching to a feature phone this week, and although I plan to get a DAP with deezer support eventually, being able to use deezer on a feature phone would be super handy.

A deezer app for KaiOs would be awesome, such small devices could be lot more useful with support of a real music service...

Just adding my support to this idea.  Like others, I would love to ditch the smartphone, but don’t want to also ditch all my music!

 

Thanks,

+1 for this. 

 

Im sick of smartphones. 

 

Fellow users.. please note that Deezer is famous for dragging even the most obvious updates. I would love to see this happen but I have absolutely no faith at all.
