I've tried all the music streaming services to see if I can sort my favorite artists somewhere. There is no way to do that anywhere, it's ridiculous. I like many types of music, so my Favourites is a complete mess. The built-in sort modes are inefficient. I hope deezer (or one of the others) comes out with this feature soon.

I have countless playlists too and would love to sort or categorise them into folders, groups, collections and tag them, or at least flag them with color assignments.

It’s also quite annoying that finding and selecting the desired playlist when scrolling through them, as well as using the search option, can take too much time. 
I almost use playlists only and would like to have a quick find feature the Home page or on a separate footer page.

It would be nice to have customizable buttons that link to folders or collections of playlists. This way you can create mood or theme based selections. Using tags would add a lot more flexibility and control I guess.

On de playlist page it would be nice if you scroll down, you get an alphabet scroll bar to quickly move to the right letter since they are ordered alphabetically.

It would also be great if you could add a few shortcut buttons on the home page that link to specific playlists, groups or folders.

it's been six years. this is literally just the playlist feature, but more. get up and do something.  i swear if i ever get rich enough im making a streaming service that doesnt just sit there and refuse to take feedback on features it'd take like. probably 20 minutes including lunch for an experienced programmer to write the code for. grain of salt, im not an experienced programmer, but this doesnt seem like a hard feature to add. it has been six years.

Because of the lack of this feature, I think more than once when making a favorite of an album I like, which is a shame...

Please please add this very very simple feature!

 

If you just make a little programming: to add tags or put into groups our favourite albums for example would be great! Tags would be the most simple for artists, albums and playlists. 

 

For example I add custom “electronic chill” tag to my favourite artists or albums, this would be much more easy to navigate and also to get an idea what to listen of my tons of favourites.

Like you have a shelf of CD-s, and you organize them by genre, or how much you love them, or by colour :)

New to Deezer and kinda shocked they don’t have the functionality to make folders for your playlists. As an old time Spotify user, please please please add some kind of folder functionality to your service. I have hella playlists and it’s confusing trying to find the one I want, missing that folder functionality I had on Spotify right about now…

It looks like similarly to all the other posts in here, I am quite surprised this is still not a feature after six years.

Anyone from Deezer: Do you have any sort of timeline for this feature?

Yes please!
I’ve been using Deezer playlists to setup ambient music for roleplaying game sessions and this means my number of playlist just skyrockets. I’d like to set up individual playlists for each game, setting, mood, scene, etc.
They all end up mixed with my personal everyday playlists with no way to sort them other than in alphabetical order. I’d really love the ability to put them all aside in one big folder, and then be able to organize them with individual folder for each of the game they’re supposed to go with.
I also have no other way to display them than the big square layout. I could really use a more compact list layout for quicker access during a play session.
So far my best option for quick-launching playlists during games has been to write a separate text document with links to each playlists. This is not ideal, obivously, and also a lot of work just to get around the lack of such a basic feature as folders.

Hoping for folders in the not too distant future :)

PLEASE. I can’t handle my playlists anymore. Please even just a simple folder system for playlists. I beg you.
