New logo: Explanations 💜

As a long time user of Spotify premium i found it hard to adjust to the simple design of Deezer, that's when I started thinking that it might be a good idea to do a UI redesign. Just to give Deezer the modern feel it needs instead of looking like Itunes from 15 years ago.

I can understand why the design from Deezer and Spotify are different, but for me using Deezer instead of Spotify is because of the design. The simple design of Deezer is far better than the busy design from Spotify. But this is always in the eye of the beholder 😁

I don 't like your new design . can I switch to the old one?

Hi. 

Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love Deezer. It's my go to choice for music, however deezer's new UI is truly a crime against humanity. 

Please, deezer devs make a switch in the app that allows users to choose between the new and the old UI.

It really is bad. And rather than adding new things, they took stuff away! You can't see the album release date anymore by swiping the album cover. Instead it just makes the album cover slightly smaller… wtf is even the point??

Yep, It is completely undesirable from a User Experience standpoint. Giving the user more features is not a bad thing, taking stuff away from customers / users is bad.

New logo doesn't represents and identify me, you should let people choose, at least the color. Now I have to move the app because it looks awful in my principal display. Really considering now to cancel it and get Spotify.

So the new interface is, subjective. Personally I don’t like everything this rounded, its a weird round-squary shape, I’d prefer someone just making a choice. I don’t like how the fonts aren’t consistent. I don’t like the font used for a playlist name, but the more clean font that I’d prefer still is at other places. Also player background still often mismatches the actual album cover.

Apart from interface changes, which I would like to see be more user selectable, the useability got worse.

• The most simple thing: swiping down to hide player. Why is that gone? It’s such a nice fast way to see the playlist or album again. 
• Other thing, favorite tabs should have recently player or recently updates playlist without requiring one additional press to go into the complete playlist list.
• The sorting option also now requires extra clicks
• When adding a song on Android to a playlist, scrolling through playlists doesn’t show the a letter (A,B,C) but Sectio...}}}]).

Also, I’d love monet theming. Plus there is still no decent widget for Android, this was the opportunity. 

I love Deezer, I defend it every time people ask me why not to use Spotify, for me it’s the little nice-to-have’s and intuitive interface that really worked. I’ve been using it for longer than I can remember, and the HiFi quality is an added bonus. This for me a overall step in the wrong direction. Yes, the look is subjective, although I think it is objectively half-done. But the useability did suffer today. I hope that the team once again, listed to feedback and can change some stuff or make it optional in settings.

Agreed

Just made a similar topic, its really not well executed. The look is just wrong, feels half-baked. Plus like @EricP said, a lot of functionality got worse. I don’t like the player buttons, this weird bubbly stuff really looks a bit childish, and that whilst the industry is moving to a more clean design (Google with Material You, and Apple realy going for tha frosted look again). I’d love Deezer to reconsider and give users more choice. Keep this the default if you want it to be the look for most users, but at least give use the option in settings. I’d love a monet toggle on android.

Also my friend thought it was some funky dating app with the new icon.
