Hello @mreid133, yes that’s the case. To tell you all the story, we’ve organised with the French Community a Question-Answer session between the French superusers and some Deezer staff members from various teams, it was a success and this is definitely something we’re planning to do with you guys as well.

The Samsung wearables topic was discussed, and as I said above, a team of ours is currently working with Samsung to make this happen. However so far this project has had a lower priority over other improvements or features, and some technical challenges came up. But after the QA session and the enthusiasm that was shown to our teams, I think the chances of this happening have increased a lot.

I thought what you wrote about your kids is very sweet and interesting :slight_smile: It reminded me when I first got my Deezer account back in 2009 when I was something like 16, still have it now. Tell them Deezer says hi and thank you for their support :wink:

Hi Rafael, not many users know about this community and many have no interest to participate, I think that's why this voting thing is not showing much interest in the app for Tizen but this is something real, just check any gym to see how many people is using smartwatches and headphones, with Deezer we are tied to the cellphone, storing mp3s in the smartwatch is not an option because of the limited storage capacity. The request for the app is not new, it has been there practically since the day we bought a Gear S watch hoping Deezer to be available soon (years ago). It has been enough time waiting and I don't understand what makes it so difficult to provide the app, honestly, do you think our only option is to move to Spotify?

Hi there, thanks for the feedback! We do have partnership with some watches (garmin, fitbit, apple, android...) and we do know the importance of it, but we don't have partnership with samsung yet. Only Samsung can develop the app for their watches and they chose not do it at the moment. Our partnership team is working on it and hopefully it will be available soon, but right now we don't have an estimate time.

It has become legend, unfortunately.
Until the Tidal that just came on the market, is now available for the galaxys Watch.
Lack of respect for the customer.

Perhaps I'm missing something big here, but that statement sounds like a load of ..... . This is not rocket science. Do it. I'm using Deezer simply because you guys pay out better to the artist than Spotify, but your apps are really lacking. Do you have any positions open? XD

Sometimes I want to carry less while working out. Just my smart watch to gym sessions would be so convenient. Please release a support feature for this soon
