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.

I also find it frustrating to have to navigate multiple screens just to get to a search bar especially since it's something I use so frequently. Doesn't make sense.

@walker it depends on the part of the app, Search is multi-platform and it's super important :relaxed:

This is deezers biggest flaw at the moment, endlessly scrolling back pages to find the relevant search button.

Hi there @rsbrenelli 

Thank you for renewing the feedback on this suggestion and making it better by adding your opinion. We'll be working on making it less "clunky" for users this year and feedback like yours is precious. I'll be passing the comments on :wink:

Is there any progress on this? At least a Home button on each screen of a Search button is too difficult.

Thanks for contributing with your opinion @John Tan. We haven't heard about this being developed but it's something we're aware of for quite some time.

We'll forward your comments to the right teams here at Deezer so that it can be considered for development in the near future :thumbsup_tone2:
