Does it support AirPlay 2?

Hello,

I’m part of iOS beta and I would like to know whether the app was updated to support QirPlay 2 features? 
When I connect to my AirPlay 2 speaker (only have one so far but updates are coming for the others) I don’t feel any benefits. My understanding was that AirPaly 2 would support long form audio meaning that the song will be loaded in a queue within the speaker’s memory instead of short streaming from the phone. 

Can you confirm if it supports AirPlay 2 new features? If not when will it be added?

    Deezer still does not work with airplay 2 via iOS to an AVR, because it lags buffering. So it’s only good for audiobooks. Streaming music is a horrible experience. Have to keep Apple Music and will unsubscribe Deezer

    Doesn’t look like anyone from Deezer cares..

    To me it looks like the typical scenario: First they do everything to establish their name and get costumers on their side, and once it works they stop caring about their costumers. Bravo!!

    The only thing I see, is a lot of bla bla… and that’s it! 
    Sorry guys… but I’m going back to Spotify! 
     

    ..you also ruined Flow!! I get the same songs over and over again. Please rename it to “Repeat”, that way people know what to expect.

    Some news from Apple about AirPlay integration with enhanced audio buffering : https://developer.apple.com/wwdc23/10238

    Maybe, it will make things easier for third parties to integrate AirPlay 2. Looking forward to it! Let us know!

    To stream Deezer songs on devices that have support for AirPlay2, follow these steps:

    -At first, switch on your Apple TV and ensure it is connected to the internet. ...

    -Go to the App Store on your iPhone or iPad.

    -Search for Deezer and install the app on your device.

    -After the installation, click Open to run Deezer.

    Thanks @Leonídia.Deezer,

    I am sure we all know in the beta forum know how to play via AirPlay. 
    Do you have updates on the full implementation of AirPlay 2 into Deezer? Both iOS and desktop?

    Hi @Leonídia.Deezer 

    There was no news in your last post really, only supposed steps to work around AirPlay issue. 
    Is AirPlay 2 support finally on the development roadmap for Deezer ? Do you have a timeline ?
