Hey deezer,

 

I know change is inevatable with apps but could I beleive putting the three dots option button in the top right is possably the worst place for it as its a button i use regularly. Its not in an easy to use spot especially when im using my phone with one hand, I dont have a large phone too. Just somthing to consider.

Cheers

@beekpres is the three-dot menu working for you? I just updated to 8.0.36.4 (Android) and the three icons at the top are unresponsive.

edit to add: several restarts later, and playing around with it, I think it's that the hitboxes are off, I have to tap well above the icons to get them to work. Pixel 7a.

do you mind if I ask what phone you are using? this may be exclusive to my phone, as another user also said they are working fine for him.

This change is disastrous. I moved from beta to stable, and now it also came to stable. They made change for change sake. And it not even working as it should, I need to tap 3,4 times to activate menu. 😡😡. Make it as option or revert completely as it was.

I really don’t like the 3 dots in the top corner.  It was much better as it was before - please revert ! 😡

It makes it even more annoying that not only are the 3-dots up, but the hitbox is even higher.

I also don't like this change..  i understand moving most things to top right, but this middle area is something we are used to for many of the basic stuff at least… The rest you can hide top right.

 

Also.. the sleep button disappeared!!! Was bottom middle.. i might understand if it's not a commonly used one ..but it is with me.. and consider the lazy person about to sleep looking for it! 😅

I suffer immensely from that design decision, what could possibly be the idea behind it? What kind of UI approach is that, I keep pushing that phantom button since I’ve pushed it thousands of time. And my finger hurts when I have to push the new button on the top with my thumb. Or I have to hold the phone with two hands, which is also not possible all the time. 

Also even the new button as someone mentioned in the thread doesn't work very well, either the tap area is limited or there a some kind of limitation where you cannot tap right away, which I don’t really understand how it works

I’m guessing whoever decided to move the 3 dots for no reason doesn’t have opposable thumbs and has decided to punish the rest of us for their de-evolutionary mishap with de-evolutionary UX design decisions.

What an absolute blunder.

I left Spotify for Deezer because of Spotify’s insatiable hunger for making arbitrary, regressive changes...

I think the age of the playlists is over. Instead, we should rather use the AI generated flows. That's why the three points were moved.

Please reverse this update. It barely works. Very frustrating.

 

Where can I vote against this update?

See "Upvote" above. 

The problem is that in numerous different discussions there is annoyance about the three points. I'm actually registered in the German Deezer Community (https://de.deezercommunity.com/) and there I see at least 4 different discussions in which the users complain about the three-point menu. Unfortunately, there is no "upvote" button there.
