Google Home in the Netherlands

Come on guys, take us seriously ...

Hallloooho?!?!?! 🇳🇱

Also considering switch to Spotify or google music because Deezer does not work in Google Home in the Netherlands

About to switch to spotify as well. Apparently Deezer doesn’t care or realize that Google Home is booming in Holland and the lack of deezer-support is a huge thread.

Currently mainly using Spotify but would consider making a switch to Deezer if this would work too...

Being able to kick off Google Home (cast) from the Windows app would help too... then again this is not possible with Spotify either, you need to start the casting on IOS or Android.

One other difference is whilst casting, Spotify Windows app can control the casting... Deezer not by the looks...

Come on. Fix it !
Why are we waiting ?

Can someone from Deezer at least let us know what we are waiting for? Is this a technical challenge, or a commercial one? Or resources to get it set up? And which resources, from Deezer, Google, or both?

Come on, take us seriously!

Hi there @TheRealSal

Sorry we haven't had any news about this, bud. While it involves a certain level of technicality, I don't feel this is the reason for why we don't have support for Google Home in the Netherlands - and other countries. It's a commercial partnership and it's a little bit more complicated than that - I wouldn't be able to give you a clear answer.

Both companies have their plans for the year and ours is to try our best to give our users what they want and a better experience - which also includes different platforms and partnerships. So if there's any update about this, rest assured you'll get a notification from this topic.

It definitely isn't a technical issue because Deezer is supported in several other countries. And I can't believe it would be a licencing issue as every Deezer member has the licences to listen to Deezer music!

So who's the one here putting up walls? Google? T-mobile Netherlands? Or Deezer?

Oké, m'n done waiting . Goodbye Deezer.
