Hello, Deezer team!

I've been using your service since it came about in 2007, and what I like most about it is its ease of use. It's got all I really need (and a bit more, but that's okay). In the meantime, however, I was with Spotify until crappy payment issues which were not MY fault brought me into difficulties and I cancelled the subscription ASAP, which was a pain in the arse. Now, since all my friends are using Spotify, I've been tempted to join the club again, but I really do not want to. I want to stay with DEEEEEEZER I've grown so fond of, we've got a nostalgic history. :-)

Alright, so back to the topic. I really don't need much, but what I find quite annoying is the fact I cannot change the language of your desktop client to English. I'm running a German Windows version, and I know that the client is using the system languge. Of course I could try and reset my whole system to English, but I don't want that. The Spotify desktop client allows you to set any language independently of the operating system's settings. I want to see this implemented in your App as well, and I also want it to start up faster!!!
Because of these annoyances, I still prefer to use the service via my browser. I can have it in English, and my browser starts up faster than your desktop client. Ridiculous!

But I love you still!

Best regards
Charles

    hi @Eierfratz

    the desktop app is beta and has only been around for about a month so it's in it's very early stages. I know other competitors e.g. spotify have a desktop app that is more polished but it's been around years (I was using it about 3 years ago and to be fair it was full of bugs then).

    I don't doubt with all our feedback the app will continue to progress and become better and better! I hope that helps!

    You have the web player or windows 10 app in the meantime!
    I'm a "Deezerhead" (fanboy) and just love music! (Please note even though I love all things Deezer I do not work for Deezer and therefore cannot assist with account issues etc.)

    Yes, that's right, and I'm willing to give it time to grow. I still use Win 7, so the other app for 10 doesn't cut it for me. Never mind, as I mentioned, there's still the web player. Been hearing about hacking issues, hmm. Hopefully my AV will detect any rogue attempts.
