As title says.. Could you not add an option to remove song from playlist, sometimes I accidentally add to wrong ones due to my cerebral palsy.. And then gets embarrassing when a random tune comes on, in the wrong playlist.. But to remove it, you have to go all the way through the actual playlist to find it first! Would an option of remove from playlist be any good.. There's 3 playlist of mine now I don't want to play anymore as accidently added whole albums to them.. 🤦‍♂️

To be able to delete a track from your own playlist in ‘now playing’ would be great. Having to find the track in a long playlist is fiddly and time consuming if it’s a long playlist. 

Music is essential.. Music is life with Hi-Res Apple Music.....

I agree. I also vote for this feature. When I shuffle a playlist containing 1,000 songs and want to remove a song that is currently playing because I don't like it anymore, I have to go back to the playlist and find it, which is almost impossible to do when a random song is playing. I would like to be able to do this from the quick menu. For example, 'Remove the song from this playlist'.

i also vote for this feature. I recently migrated from Spotify and have historically created playlists by finding a community playlist, duplicating it, and then removing songs I don’t like. This workflow is much, much harder on Deezer due to the lack of ability to easily remove a song from a playlist while it’s playing.

in discussion but from 5 years ago… :’) 

we really need this. my standard playlist procedure is to add whole albums and then remove the songs that I dont want on there when they come up and don’t vibe right, which is impossible in your UI, there is no adjusting your playlist while you LISTEN to it option you have to simply know in advance

Just moved over to Deezer from Spotify, and was disappointed to not see this crucial UI function not available. If you build your own playlist and come a cross a song you want to remove, it is a very tedious process to remove/delete the current track being played from the current playlist (not queue). Should be a no brainier, and accessible from mobile or browser ‘now playing’ menu. You have the ability to add the current track to another playlist, but not remove from current?

To come into the Deezer Community threads and see this has not been improved or acted upon after 5-YEARS is a little disheartening...
