Control Alexa from Deezer app

What I find a pity too is the deezer connect feature. It should be able to control any deezer app on any device. Not just on computers. For instance I have my ISP device with deezer on it but deezer connect does not see that as a controllable device...

Hi guys! It is really bad that we can’t control deezer from devices while the music is played on alexa. But I have a suggestion to solve it while deezer does not create a solution. Choose de device that you want to listen deezer and connect to alexa bluetooth… this way you will control by the device choosen by you.

Is it the best way? No! But solve part of the problem! 

Because of this very issue I am looking for a new smart speaker, I have always liked the sound quality from Amazon echo devices. Spotify was good To listen on Google devices but switching to Deezer because of the sound quality Improvement from the stream when played on a Google device It seems like a waste of money. The Echo sounds way better so now  I am looking for a new speaker because of the lack of control from Amazon. Their interface with the app is crap.

Ive been surprised that this has not been addressed. I find the voice controls poor especially when trying to select a specific podcast, if you have playlists with more than one word and foreign names.

Would love to see this moved along deezer

Hi @Tom.Heath, thanks for your feedback!

Your idea to control Alexa from the Deezer app is great, and other users have suggested the same thing.

I'll share this idea with our team once again.

If you have more ideas or questions, please let us know.

This is a really frustrating issue that needs resolving - trying to control the song to play by voice is full of problems, doesn’t allow you to go on a thread of linked music by browsing, and the fact that the Alexa skill is poor too and often doesn’t choose the right version of a song all adds up to me thinking of cancelling again after I came back on the current offer. 
 

+1 I’ve been searching in the app how to do this and I am shocked I cannot do this. I can cast to Google but not Alexa speakers. 

Hi @Sam James, I understand your concern.

Currently, Deezer supports casting to Google devices, but not directly to Alexa speakers.

I appreciate your feedback and will take it into consideration as we continue to improve our services.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Joining the disappointment here… I looked into this maybe last year or the year before. Turns out, nothing has changed. I love Deezer and really want to move away from Spotify, but really this is the ONE feature I need and use - to be able to control the music on Alexa via the app on my phone, or via the website/computer app. Come on Deezer, do better! Surely there’s a way!
