Hi,

Only joined Deezer a couple days ago from Apple Music and one of the biggest features I’m missing is having the lyrics view persist between songs. Currently, at the end of each song there is a button that appears at the bottom to keep lyrics on, and if you don’t press it, it goes back to the regular player view. 
 

I’m sure there are some that enjoy this behaviour, but I’m not one of them. I would appreciate if it would be considered to add a toggle in the settings to turn this behaviour off so I can view lyrics between songs without any input. 
 

The use case for this is if my hands are full or dirty (say, cooking) and instead of putting down what I have or cleaning my hands every time a song ends to keep the lyrics viewable, the lyrics could just say visible. 
 

thanks.

Hello,

I have got DEEZER for my 91 years old parents for several years now and this setting is greatly needed !!!!
My parents are visually impaired and have ALZHEIMER's.

This setting is needed on both the ANDROID and the iOS version. 

CURRENT BEHAVIOUR :
Currently displaying lyrics is only possible on the song being played, on a song per song basis, once a song is finished the user will need to tap on LYRICS to display the lyrics for the new song.


DESIRED BEHAVIOUR :
The desired behaviour is having a toggle setting located in SETTINGS > DISPLAY with the name "DISPLAYING LYRICS ALWAYS ON" that can be switched between "OFF" and "ON".

The role of this setting will be to display lyrics whenever lyrics are available.

 

WHY IS THIS SETTING A TOTAL GAME CHANGER THAT IS IN HIGH DEMAND :
- Users with impaired vision and cognitive impairement have difficulties keeping on hitting the LYRICS button at every new song.
Their family members can prepare playlists that have lyrics and can set it to display the lyrics always.

- Users wishing to have a KARAOKE PARTY won't need to tap on the LYRICS button at every song.


Thank you for letting us know when this change is being implemented.
