Using Deezer on Android. When Chromecasting I cannot select 'play next' or 'add to queue' for songs. The options are greyed out. They work fine if I stop casting. I've seen similar posts going back months on here and can't believe this basic functionality hasn't been sorted out.

I totally get your point @DP4 I've been pushing the feedback you mentioned during this time. It's just that the team in charge of this is actually one of the busiest teams in the whole of Deezer - we have numerous partnerships and huge projects with them involved - I'll let them know what you think :pray_tone2:

I know I’ve complained a lot about Deezer so here’s some praise :grinning: I’ve possibly just found one feature that will keep me on Deezer . Just found out I can sync music to my fitbit and not need to take my phone out running.   Never realized that was possible on a fitbit to do.

One of our proudest moments @DP4 thanks so much for the nice feedback, it's refreshing! :relaxed:

We're also working on improving everything else you already told us. We'll get there!

Deezer, please add the functionality to Deezer, I too would like to be able to use a play queue while casting, this is pretty basic functionality. Thanks

Three years and still nothing. Amazing.

I understand it has been a while and frustrating at the same time.
I’ve ask our devs for any update and will get back to you soon.

So… Any update ?

It should be basic feature. Actually, it is a deal breaker for me,  as I use Chromecast all the time, and Deezer doesn't seem to support Chromecast that well.

Any update?

Hey @MrHaroldA 

Apologies for the experience you've been having. Yes, we have our new Chromecast integration ready and working but play next and add to queue are still features we need to develop for it. I'm unable to give you a timescale but I assure you that your feedback will add priority to their development. I say this because I know our focus for the end of this year and 2021 is to get all these integrations with other devices to work better and do more :thumbsup_tone2:

Hey @Rudi 

We are nearing the end of 2021 now and it seems that this hasn't been implemented yet. You have any update for us?

(I'm using a Google nest audio, streaming from android.)

I honestly thought the app was bugging when I didn't see these two options in the menu.

I've found CC support to be lacklustre in certain other competitors but this a new low.

This really is a dealbreaker when having friends over and listening to music on Chromecast. Will be moving over to Spotify sadly who support Chromecast properly.

This been sorted yet ? Or any update on an eta for it ?
 

Really wanna drop Spotify and come back to deezer but this is a deal breaker for me

Hey there, I am so sorry to be the bearer of bad news but this feature is not going to be implemented for now. 

I think this is more a fix than a feature. We should have the same experience regardless we are using Bluetooth, Chromecast, AirPlay or not.

This was one of the things I left Deezer for
