Missing feature that Spotify has: choosing Sonos wifi speaker directly from Deezer iOS app. Currently you need to use Sonos app to play deezer on your Sonos wifi system.

Highly welcome function!

    Hey everyone,

    We're pleased to let you know that this is being developed as part of our 'remote control' feature this year. I'll surely share more details once I have them, in the near future.

    Thank you for all your support and see you in a bit!

        Hello there @ricky273472 

         

        @Rudi no longer works for deezer, hasn’t in quite some time.

         

        Here is the latest news, posted by @Jaime. just four days ago, right above your post:


        “Actually I have to say that news are not that good. Apologies for the misinformation coming from one of my replies in a Sonos related thread in the community.
        Sonos support for Deezer connect is not available in any country yet and there is no ETA either.
        What we recently launched in France and the US was Deezer on Sonos Voice Control and support for the Flow Moods.
        As soon as I have information regarding Deezer Connect I’ll let you know”

         

        So, while it might not be the news you were hoping for, deezer connect has been rolled out, we all did get an update, and progress continues.

         

        Cheers,

        G

                Anybody have any luck getting their subscription refunded over this? I just came back to Deezer from Spotify having completely forgotten this is the reason I left in the first place!

                  Not sure I am understanding the issue here. When I am at my son’s home I can Airplay from my Deezer to his Sonos amp with all the functionality of the Deezer app in my hands. The sound quality is likely as good as one can discern in a Sonos system, and sounds great through his KEF speakers.

                  As an android user I don't know much about airplay, but I understand that this routes the stream via your phone, unlike Spotify connect where you use the Spotify app to set up a direct stream straight to your Sonos speaker. Besides this, airplay is only an iOS this as far as I'm aware.

                    Could you add a Chromecast device to the stream?
