Android Auto - Playlist view

in the android auto app you can’t view your playlist’s songs, or even change the order of the playlist, which makes the android auto app almost useless since I always use my phone to choose a specific song or choose the playlist order, your only option is to shuffle with the AA app alone.

This is the Deezer player in AA:

This is the Youtube Music player in AA:

notice the blue circle shows the playlist view icon

This is Youtube music playlist view:

and it’s not only YT music who has this basic feature, spotify also has it.

I have a complete faith in you guys to add this basic feature which apparently you guys have it in Car Play which is a bit odd.

How many more upvotes are required before Deezer considers this? This issue has been reported in numerous threads across Deezer and still they are not considering this. How hard is this to implement and also in every thread i see that this idea is “In Discussion”, what is there to discuss about it. The idea is clear and many people are requesting it. So can’t Deezer just implement it instead of wasting time.

New to Deezer and just discovered this shortcoming today. Super annoying that I can't browse playlists in my vehicle. Also no “go to album" or “go to artist" option on currently playing screen. Very disappointed.

It is ridiculous that this feature was not included from the beginning.  I am realatively new to Android Auto and I spent quite a while looking for the playlist view as to me it was inconceivable that it wasn't included.  Please pull your thumb out and add it.

Years passed, I’ve returned to Deezer recently from other FLAC-streaming while being sure that there ARE playlist view for my car already, but… Still nothing. Time to switch again, obviously.

This REALLY needs to be added as a feature. In fact, in terms of usefulness as it relates to Android Auto, this is literally one of the most critical functions of ANY media player yet after knowing this needs to be added for years now, Deezer still hasn't done a thing to address this problem. Makes it impossible to put away my phone while driving.

This is literally one of the most important features of any media player. Moreso when it's Android Auto. This is beyond an issue of convenience; it's about safety. Because I can't scroll through a playlist I can never put my phone away. This needs to be implemented. It's been years, and is ridiculous.

I have been deezer user for last 5 years, and I'm shocked and appalled that this option is still non existant.

 

Because of this I'm switching to Spotify!!!  I encourage everyone to switch to some other streaming app!!

 

You are ignorant of requests of your users, you and playing stupid. 

 

Spotify will be my next stream app, everything is all my Playlist will be transfer. 

Thank you for nothing.
