Would be nice to have this as the only issue I have with Deezer.

Sometimes plays safe versions other times explicit tracks.

Whilst I want the full flavour explicit versions in my flow/playlists, I really need the option to have safe versions for when the kids are in the car.

Deezer is the only service I've tried without this, and currently the only service I am looking to subscribe to.

But this really is a major sticking point

Big issue for me. My kids love to use Deezer but I need to be able to block out the explicit content. Needs to be a must if I am to stay with Deezer.

Yes, an option in settings to filter out explicit would be good. Not sure why all the big music streaming companies seem reticent to do this? Spotify, amazon music etc?? Do you sign a deal with the record companies not to limit the music or something? Anyway please provide. Itโ€™s not allowed on most broadcast radio so why should it be ok on streaming services?

I don't understand why music streaming services don't seem to do this. Deezer's kids profile is poor as you can't search for popular artists. The "curated" content only includes about a dozen or so artist pages. Needs much more attention and community involvement

Could you use the existing information about explicit lyrics to have a switch on Flow to only play the clean version of any song, that would really help when my kids are using Deezer and I wouldn't need to set up playlists allowing them to discover more music freely

Sorry if that's already been suggested, I did have a look but couldn't see it. Also, if there is a better way that's already working for some then let me know :-)

Thanks

This is also for me the major thing missing at the moment. Would save me putting it on flow in the car and then sweating for the journey that I might need to quickly shift the tune.

Totally agree. Infuriating for the kids in the car... have to skip so many tracks. Planning to cancel - unusable for a family.

Iโ€™m using a trial of Deezer and really enjoying the Flow functionality. Currently playing it in the office, and this morning Iโ€™ve had to reject a few songs with explicit lyrics. I have 2 young daughters at home and unless I can block explicit content, I donโ€™t want to risk playing Flow while theyโ€™re around. While the individual tracks are blocked, I suspect thereโ€™ll be plenty more coming through.

the Flow option needs some basic customisable options, particularly regarding tracks with explicit lyrics.

If deezer does not do something about blocking explicit lyrics songs,or to have parental control I will cancel my subscription. This is wrong to have bad words in songs when you drive in the car with kids and you have stop the music .
