Option to Not Minimize/Close to System Tray

Now that Dark Mode is finally available in the desktop app, I have been using the exclusively on my desktops instead of visiting the website.

I would like the option for the app to actually quit when I close it, and not continue running in the system tray. It is a major annoyance when I close the app and the music keeps playing. As if I were working on a Mac where an application that is closed is never really closed until you force quit it from the dock.

I have seen a few older threads requesting the opposite - that the app minimize/close to the system tray. I can understand how that would be preferable for some, but I prefer to exit apps completely when I quit them and not have to take the additional step of expanding the system tray to quit the application.

Can a setting can be included to let subscribers choose the behavior when closing the app?

Thank you

Hi there @miguelgigante

Thank you for your feedback. I agree that not everyone is happy with the functionality. So I've passed the feedback on and left my contribution here 👍🏼

Until Deezer launches that feature, you could use Monitor to kill Deezer process or using a command in your terminal.

Astell&Kern Norma SR15 + Sennheiser Momentum M2 AEG + Sennheiser HD 598 + Sony WH-1000XM2 + Sony WF-1000xm4 + own 2249 Hi-Fi/-Res Tracks + Deezer Freemium. Let's play!

Love the dark mode on Windows 10, Deezer 4.13.4! But ever since the update I've been unable to close the window simply by clicking on "X" in the top right corner. There's no option to set this as a preference in app preferences either.

The only solution is to go to the tray, open all items, then right click and choose Quit.

So please fix this for the next release, it's quite annoying

Your loyal customer 🙂

Hi Andre, as far as I know our app comes with this X in the top right corner... Have you reinstalled the app?

Hi Rafael
there is an X button, but it doesn’t quit the app as it used to do, instead it closes the window, but keeps the app running in tray.

Hi there @andreosokin

The feature to minimise the app to tray was recently added. But I've already passed this feedback to our devs, hopefully they can look into making it an option. Thank you for your input 😉

It should be optional. I lost a few minutes trying to figure out how to deactivate it... 😞

Agree. This should become an option not mandatory.

Since the new update if you close the Deezer window the music keeps on playing in the background. This is annoying for me, since I have to find the deezer icon in my tray and close it with a context menu. Add an option to change the functionality of the close button, so those who have a spare second screen or use the minimise button can more easily close the app if we are not using it actively.
