Hi

Please consider to add the option to search from every screen on the Android app . Now I need to navigate to previous pages multiple times just to search for something . It's inconvenient.

Thx

Hey, it seems like this topic has been out for quite a few months already but there's still been no implementation of this feature. Searching for songs is so important. Especially when building playlists and also if you've migrated from another platform.

If you wish to retain new users I would suggest implementing better navigation within the app. The bottom bar should always be visible, per Material Design guidelines for Android. And Search should be an easily accessible function. And even when you have your search results, like you to go an artist page, then you click on their discography and then on an album and play a song or add it to a playlist, it should be one single click away to return to the search field.

I am a new user and creating playlists is a nightmare especially because of the clunky interface when it comes to search and navigation. Otherwise I quite like Deezer.

Hi,

If you want to preform a search after clicking on suggested albums you need to click back as many times as you clicked on suggested albums.

It would be great if you will add a button or link that will take you home, it should be available from any page or menu item.

Thanks!

At the moment the app forces you to hit previous page multiple times which gets very annoying after a while, there should be easier way to navigate between pages.

I totally agree with this, you shouldn't have to go back 5 times to get back to the search. A hamburger menu on Android would be great, everything could be available with just 1 swipe

I literally came here just to post this suggestion. After delving into an artist's history or whatever, it's incredible how many taps it takes to get back to a screen that lets me search again. It's a massive usability issue, and by far my biggest bugbear with the app and service overall.

Will you add a home button on the mobile version ? When you listen to one artist then you go to similar artist and so on, you have to go all the way back to be able to do a research again. That's a bit annoying...

It's done !

I am also talking to someone on the Deezer Help account on Twitter. I think it's a massive thing to solve as the people think above me. I've been a user for 3 years but this really grinds my gear I have to say 😅

I agree! And we've passed this on to the developers. I hope there will be an update soon 🙂 Can't promise anything, but we'll keep you posted 🙂
