Spotify have good feature to sync play status on devices and continue current playing on new device: https://community.spotify.com/t5/Implemented-Ideas/Resume-playing-on-different-device/idi-p/15185
Will be good to see same feature in Deezer too.

On the Android platform, Deezer will "remember" where you left off when starting up the music app again. On iOS, Deezer will not start where you stopped playing music. It would be great if the Deezer iOS app would store this information. When someone is a huge music fan and listens to a lot of music daily, this feature of "remembering" where you left off is vital. Everything else with Deezer is excellent!

Also for multiplataform. Starting with one device and then continue in another one. I will also add a suggestion for a feature to control with your phone or pc other devices playing music. Like Spoty Connect
Astell&Kern Norma SR15 + Sennheiser Momentum M2 AEG + Sennheiser HD 598 + Sony WH-1000XM2 + Sony WF-1000xm4 + own 2249 Hi-Fi/-Res Tracks + Deezer Freemium. Let's play!

There is another one for your second suggestion @walker : https://deezer-en.insided.com/got-an-idea-9/remote-control-music-on-another-device-1043

I’ve seen there is already this question out there, but when will Deezer resolve the issue?
Big issue - Deezer doesn’t continue playback of the shuffled songs or playlist you last played before app closure. It’s really frustrating that you have to shuffle again and listen to tracks you’ve recently listened to when you reopen the app. I’m considering going back to Spotify for this reason.

Even for those who do not agree. As an on/off option is always valid!
Go!!
Glad my brain discovered Deezer!

@Loopy75 I merged your topic into this existing idea 🙂 We are already testing it 🙂 I don't have an ETA yet, but we'll you you know here once we have any details. If everything goes to plan, hopefully very soon 🙂

Hi,

I am trying out Deezer (premium) to see how it compares to my current (premium) spotify account.
So far i do like it. Nice and easy UI, good assortment of songs, Flow etc.

But there are things holding me back from switching.

1) The syncing between devices.
This function I use a lot.
If i am on my computer doing some fullscreen stuff, I use my phone to remotly control spotify.
It is way easier to quickly add songs to your favourites/playlist, skip a song, switch playlist etc. instead of keep switching between screens/programs on my computer.

Also when I use spotify on my Google Home I can quickly add a song that i hear to a playlist via my phone.

2) Talking about Google Home, when will it be integrated into other countries?

These two points are a huge miss and dealbreakers for me.
Is there any news on these features?

With Syncing between devices I mean exactly the same as the topic starter says.
On spotify it's called Spotify Connect.

You will see exactly the same song and playbar on each device you are logged in.
So while listening to a song on your pc, you can use your phone as a remote control to for example skip a few seconds of the song or change a song.

It will also show a list of available devices.
For example tapping on "Your phone" in the list will play music through your phone speaker.
Tapping on "Desktop" in the list will play music on desktop.
Tapping on "Livingroom" in the list will cast music to livingroom speaker (This function is already available in Deezer).
