"Add to Queue" and "Play next" available via Chromecast

Is there an option to play next while I'm casting through Chromecast? While listening to an album I had the urge to listen to another track. I wanted to add this to my queue so I could continue to listen the album after I listened to this random track. This seems to be an option that is available when I'm just listening on my iPhone, but once I start casting I can no longer add tracks to my queue to play next. What am I don't wrong? Thanks.

Hi. With Google killing Play Music and YouTube Music being a pile of sh*t. I'm hunting for an alternative. If I could have half decent casting with queue editing that would be amazing.

Currently on the free premium trial so I guess if you have it in a month then I'll keep it!

I'll pass on your comments to the teams working with this @Go_imp @Dawid_m - that's something we can definitely look to improve :thumbsup_tone2:

Like so many others, I’m currently looking into possible replacements after Google killed Play Music. And decent Chromecast support is a must-have. So telling people for two years that you will have such a basic feature really soon now shines a very bad light on your service. Since I have implemented similar features on Chromecast myself I know for a fact that this is not something you need two years for to implement. Thus, my guess is that you don’t really care about your customers using Chromecast. Good to know.

Hey @MrHaroldA and all,

Our teams are aware this is needed but we're unable to prioritise its development at the moment, thank you for your understanding!

(this could be reviewed throughout the year)

This is become even a bigger joke than it was for years and years. I thought @Nyrob was a bit blunt calling you guys incapable a year ago, but it now really seems that he was right.

Deezer should be really ashamed of themselves for not being able to change the queue once you’re casting. You are the laughing stock on aal social gatherings where someone might suggest a song to play next; the only reaction we all can give now is “That’s a far too advanced feature for Deezer.”

Yet we all pay a premium price, for such a lousy product.

I might look into publicly shaming you and advising people to never start using Deezer, but you are way ahead of me. I’m not blaming this on @Rudi , but he makes this look even worse with all fake promises.

 

Most sincerely,

A very disgruntled, near angry customer.

PS: there used to be 161 issues regarding Chromecast, but that has gown to 236 in one year. You might want to hire somebody if you don’t have the skills to stream music.

Hi, just another voice from me saying that this is a deal breaker for me.  I need to be able to have music on, and then add a song on the fly without stopping and resetting what I am playing. 

 

Put simply, a basic functional requirement of my music streaming service is an ability to manage the play queue while casting  OR have a play queue running on an Android device connected to my amp whose queue I can control from remote tablet.
