It's about time to link Deezer with Google Home in the Netherlands. Otherwise you are at risk to lose customers to Spotify!

Also you must take a look at the link to Deezer that is used in the HEOS app. This needs improvement because it has limited possibilities. Take a look at the Spotify connexion!

Or............ Make it also possible to stream direct to WIFI boxen.

Hi there @Mil @Dekschrobber

Thank you for your support. Our product managers have recently informed us that our integration with Google Home in more countries doesn’t depend on us, but on Google themselves. We’ve been working hard for the past couple of years to improve this, but ultimately it is down to Google to choose which global partners to have on their devices. Thank you for your understanding on this.

What about the other countries where Deezer is supported? Is spotify a part of Google perhaps? I will probably leave while I would not want that at all.

Hey @Danny Goossens 

Thank you for your honest feedback. We don't want you to leave at all either.

The previous countries which have Deezer were arranged over months and each one separately. It was a very demanding process, so we wanted to partner with them. I'm not aware of the streaming service you mentioned, but Google have their own with YouTube Music.

If there are any updates about our integration with Google in the future, we'll update this topic!

Don't wait too long. I expect Deezer to take action this year (2019). If not I'll switch to Spotify in the new year.

Thank you for your honest feedback @MIKEZZ. I can confirm that this won't be happening this year - as mentioned above, Google needs to be keen on it first.

This is really an issue for me, I like Deezer and since it comes with my telco's plan (T-mobile) I want to stick to it, but I also want this to work with my Nest Hub/Mini.

Sorry to hear that @Erik Schulp. We also really wanted to stream everywhere, especially in the Netherlands. You can always reach out to Google so that they're made aware.

This is so messed up. I love Deezer and I need Deezer for my Samsung soundbar as Spotify it's not supported on there. For Google home I need Spotify as Deezer is not supported! This is driving me nuts!

 

@Rudi Is there anything that we from the community can do to speed this up? Submit requests to Google somehow?

I'd say so, yes @MusicL0v3r. It's been really difficult for us to expand our integration with them. Perhaps pushing an idea on their community helps to bridge the gap. I'm hopeful.
