It would be neat if Deezer had Discord rich presence so it would display the current playing track, album art, artist name, how long into the track the user is and a link to the track.



Something like Spotify added recently.

Any update on this?


Hey @floaked @Kagos @bishan kulasekara 

Thank you for your support and for your patience. A Discord presence like this is something we want to consider in the near future but it's not on the plans right now :v_tone2:


2* year ago this was posted, is there anything done now ?


Spotify has this cool and useful feature were they allow you to view what your friends are listening to

That is what spotify looks like. It would be cool and very useful feature like I said before, and I also like the invite to listen thing, where you can send an invitation to listen with you, so you both can listen to the same song.


Hi @Cloink, this is really cool! We'll keep sending all feedback on to the right team and hopefully it will be implemented soon! We'll update our community as soon as we have any more news about it.


I actually needed to Google what is Discord :grin:

I see, Spotify has developed section on it. Maybe Deezer can too.

I’d personally would like Deezer promoted on more places.

Perhaps they need big promotion somewhere to gain more customers.

So far Deezer seems to be a little guy in the big game of streaming market.


I think this should be given more attention because how i see it, discord is constantly gaining more and more attention and the fact that Deezer hasn’t looked into this altough the discussion goes back at least 2 years really annoys me and i am honestly thinking about switching to spotify. I really like deezer and i kind of don’t want to move away but discord really is a big part on the internet and this “Rich-Presence” Feature is almost neccesary. It would also help deezer grow a lot. So yeah… Deezer please do something.

 

This is really meant to be helpful feedback for the deezer staff and i don’t want to talk bad about Deezer at all. 

 

LG,

Hi there @jr_foh @Cloink @hpguru 

Thanks a lot for supporting this idea. It's something we're keen on but it won't be prioritised for now. Some of us are really fond of Discord (personally), so we've been pushing for it too. I believe it'll happen in the near future, but it isn't being developed now.

In any case, your comments, views and votes help the suggestion to move up on the board, so keep them coming :v_tone2:


We still need it!


Bump, we still need this please!


Bump


The interest is still there! :D


Yup, I’m even considering to go to Spotify. I went to Deezer 3-4 years ago because the mobile app was better, but the Discord connection is a big advantage for Spotify.


I vote too for Deezer integration into Discord via Rich Presence!


The following idea has been merged into this idea:

All the votes have been transferred into this idea.

Can’t wait to see this feature. Started to using Discord and I like how people show their songs there via Spotify.


Another idea to bolt onto this possibility. A Deezer discord bot that you can control via the “Deezer control” Function. This would be a bot of its own kind, allowing users with Deezer+ (Premium, family, etc) to create a playlist from there phones instead of using commands (e.g. !p, !add)


And maybe use lyric find and have a lyrics go through in a  chat channel on a server that puts the lyrics into the chat so everyone can sing along

 


come on deezer do something :(


Not now, not now. Spotify my choice


Please add Rich Presence for Deezer, please how hard can such a simple little gadget be!!


It’s been 3 years, and not for now?  


It’s been 3 years since the feature request, it’d be great cos it would promote deezer more, and discord would work on it if deezer would reach out discord and im sure of it! There’s so many third party plugins now that does this already because they just can’t wait. I hope this would actually be a feature. Can’t wait.


Hello @Rudi @Rafael. 

 

I decided to trial Deezer, as I heard they don’t have song download limits like Spotify. However, Spotify still has plenty of rich social features, like seeing what your friends are currently listening to, and collaborative playlists. One of the most important social features has been a rich Discord integration. These are all features that are missing from Deezer.

 

I’ve noticed that this request for a Discord integration has existed for over 3 years now, and while the Discord team is more than willing to introduce the integration on their end, the Deezer team has yet to follow through on their end. Social features drive music curation, and with all due respect, we don’t have the understanding why development of a Discord integration hasn’t started yet. We want to hear directly from the development team at least as to why they haven’t prioritized developing the integration yet. The community managers are doing a great job, but they can only do so much to address our feedback. What other features is the development team working on? What are they working on that is preventing them from working on Discord integration?

 

There are a few songs in my Spotify library missing from Deezer. I’m willing to temporarily shrug it off, but if Deezer can’t bring their social features up to par with Spotify, then I’ll likely switch back.

 

You have a month. Good luck.


One more thing, artists choose which platforms to add their music to based on both royalties and discoverability. Deezer pays more in royalties than Spotify, but Spotify has a stronger selection of music partially due to the additional social features that help boost discoverability. If Deezer can bring new social features to put it on par with Spotify, more users will flock to Deezer and more artists will put their music on Deezer. The two variables of users and amount of content are directly correlated, but will only continue to grow at this point if Deezer finally puts its social features on par with Spotify.
