Quickly add songs to the queue

TLDR: Add songs to the queue instantly with a swipe gesture or button instead of opening the pop-up menu.

 

We‘ve all been there, you are DJing for your friends and everyone has a song in mind that they would like to hear. But now you first have to press the three dots for each song and then select the menu item in the pop-up. It works the same way when you yourself want to mix in songs from changed playlists.

Doing this 50 to 150 times in one evening is annoying and frustrating.

In my opinion, it would be much better to be able to execute this frequently used function with a quick gesture or button press. For comparison, the IOS version of the green-black competitor from Sweden has such a function. You swipe a song to the right to add it to the queue, and to the left to like it.

Absolutely yes. One of the (few) things I miss about Spotify is how flexible you can manage the queue. Definitely the swipe to queue is a super helpful feature.

Hi @Saadborr, I totally understand how convenient it would be to swipe to add songs to the queue!

While we don’t have plans to implement this feature just yet, we appreciate your feedback and will keep it in mind for future updates.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us!

Please implement this, I like using Deezer but this might be a deal breaker for me, and keep in mind it's more expensive than Spotify so I'd expect this to be standard, even Apple music has this.

This is definitely a much needed QOL change that would make it so much easier to quickly add songs.

I think a lot of people would appreciate this feature. Both Spotify and Apple Music have it. Swiping tracks is way more convenient. So pleease make work of it?

Hey - just switched from Spotify and this has been one of the quality of life feature I’ve been missing most.
Upvoting so the Product team might reconsider :)

Just switched my whole family to Deezer, expecting this to be a standard feature. Please implement it asap as it’s really an essential feature. Maybe even something like “half swipe” = add to cue & “full swipe” = play next.

Or left swipe/right swipe (I for one don’t need “add to liked songs” as a quick gesture, especially since it’s already rather convenient with the heart)

I actually prefer Deezer because of the ability to differentiate between “Play Next” and “Add to Queue” but yeah, *sorely* missing the swipe-to-add-to-queue ...
