Not for now

No automatic track "mixes" in search results playback, make it an option.

It seems there are others who don’t like the new “feature” of automatically playing a random mix from a song in a search result, but there is no idea to bring back the old behaviour and/or make this a switchable option, I think.

This had already been available in the iOS app for a long time, as far as I know, and then was implemented in the other apps as well. But it does not allow to simply sort and play the found tracks in a row anymore which was one of the best Deezer features compared to other providers.

Here are some related forum threads, but there may be more:

Just switched from Spotify. Liking everything well enough to stick around except for this. This feature being difficult to work around and impossible to turn off is seriously irritating. I understand its purpose and intention. I intend to use it at my own discretion. Let me turn it off when I don’t want to use it, please!

On Tidal, there's an option that prevents playing recommended tracks once the queue ends.

Why is this useful? I use my smartphone to fall asleep to music. Ever since I switched to Deezer, my phone battery systematically dies overnight. While there is a sleep timer option, I don't always think to turn it on before going to sleep.

I really like Deezer, but I'll have to switch to another service if this isn't fixed.
