Not for now
Check if a song already exists in my "favorite tracks" before adding it.
Hello Deezer Community,
In my experience, when exploring music in "Flow", is very likely to see the same song multiple times with different record IDs (for example: the same song can be in different albums from 1 artist).
As a consequence I can add the same song multiple times to my Favorite Tracks. In time, this can become a problem because we can reach or limit of songs in a few months, weeks (depending how much the user "likes" songs).
I think there are 2 ways to improve this.
Solution #1 - Prevent it:
Validate, when a user "likes" a song, if the song already exists in the Favorite Track queue, considering the name of the song, the artist (and maybe other info). If the song exists then advice the user saying: "this song already exists for Artists X for album Z,. Are you sure you want to add it?"
Solution #2 - Deal with it
Provide the ability to the user to clean lists of songs and remove duplicate songs based on the criteria mentioned in the previous solution.
PD: There's already a feature in Deezer to find a substitute for a song that's not available in the country the user is in. However, the user still needs to find this songs within his lists. It would be nice if the system could identify them for you.
Regards,
Christian.
