It seems very obvious but it's not. Moved recently from Spotify to Deezer I was surprise to be unable to stream and control music over wifi from my phone app to my 2 amazon Echo's.

I am even more disappointed to have taken a 12 month subscription plan.

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!


I thought I would give Deezer a try as an alternative to Spotify. I was using it for about 5 minutes, then realized I can’t control Alexa from the Deezer app on my phone. Now I see that this issue was brought up many years ago, and the developers do not care about the need of users. So, after the free trial, heading back to Spoti 🤷‍♂️
