I came from Spotify that already has this feature for a long time, and I miss it.
I like to control the music of the pc using my cell phone, and it would be great if Deezer had this option.
thanks.
For me Spotify has the best app, Spotify Connect and best recommendations, but sound quality is lacking, Amazon HD Unlimited has worst app I’ve ever seen, but the best sound quality, good pricing and no Amazon Connect too, Apple Music could be perfect, but no Apple Music Connect, Airplay 2 sounds worse than Google chromecast and if you want to get max quality you need to buy all those silly adapters and connect to dongle DAC, that's not what I want, Tidal has good app, Tidal Connect, but MQA is snake oil for me, I don’t have a DAC which support MQA and I don't want to have, not interested in MQA at all. Don’t try Qobuz yet, but I will try after Deezer trial will end, Deezer could be one of the best option for me, they have good sound quality, not bad recommendations, app which is is almost on par with Spotify and Tidal, but no Deezer connect, every time I need to turn on bluetooth and drain the battery, so close to perfect but they don't care… I think they don't even understand how many people chose tidal instead of Deezer just because of the lack of Deezer connect.

I'm one of those... Tidal if great!! Much better than Deezer
Same here. Switched to Tital month ago. No regrets at all! From my point of view Tidal has a better app. But most important: Deezer is not interested in control devices like Sonos directly.

100% agree. This has been me for the past 4 years. I've cancelled and renewed subscriptions so many times trying to figure out the best one it's ridiculous. I'm done with Tidal even though I do like the interface. All they push is rap and yes, MQA is 100% snake oil. I really liked Deezer, a LOT! But I think they vastly underestimate the usefulness of the connect feature. I cancelled me subscription because of that alone.
I'vehad Spotify for years and they're holding out on Hi Res because... Well who knows. They own the streaming market and are only losing money by not offering it.
For high res I use Amazon as I can get it at a discount. For now it'll do as none of the services seem to really want to please any of their customers. I'm actually listening more and more to high res CDs that I've ripped to my computer.
For those who want to stream all services with native apps, without 3rd party nonsense, I highly recommend Primare NP5, you just enable the chromecast protocol and continue to control everything from the native app, you can also connect a file storage via USB and play directly from it and it's Roon Ready, has MQA support if you care, I don't know many options for this price who can offer it, sound quality is better than BlueSound Node 130 and other similar options.

This!!!!!!!!! I have been going back and forth between services for over 2 years. I can't believe it is taking Deezer (the best overall service imo) so long to implement the Connect feature. It is clearly the only major feature that's entirely missing and would finally guarantee them an actually competitive market position against Spotify.
At this point I'm honestly selfishly hoping for Spotify to implement their Hifi tier first, because it will finally give me the option to stop paying for any other service.
Is it possible that Deezer development team is this much incompetent? Features like UPnP support, remote control (on android), AirPlay (on Android) are now waiting in announcement for years. On my iPad I can stream on both Chromecast and AirPlay enabled devices, I can control Windows client and on android I can’t do any of that (can do chromecast but that is available on TVs and only small number of amps). This is getting ridiculous
I don't understand why deezer ignores the community, deezer connect and Discord Rich Presence are essential in a streming of songs nowadays and both are the top rated in communities worldwide and have more than 3 years of request
I have a hifi-capable 2.1 system, with only 3.5mm input. It only needs a little bit of equalizer tweak. My asus zenfone5z (phone) is the only solution i have. Then, I want to control/see/change the track remotely on my tablet. Solutions like anydesk/airdroid are not practical and kepps disconnecting.
