Deezer playlists with Amazon Alexa

I think the issue is user playlists. The ones made by Deezer seemed to work, from what I recall, provided you knew its name. If you make your own, then you are out of luck.

Just checked in to see if skill has been updated...looks like it has not. Still miss My Flow, but being able to cast from my phone to my echo from the app turns out to be an essential feature.  There were songs I was literally never able to play with Deezer on my echo devices at all.

Hello there @santama 

Yes, we are all aware that Alexa doesn’t support personal playlists, after all, that is the whole thread.

This is what is responded to: “For me only thing Alexa does is play “flow” and specific artists that i request from Deezer. Alexa has not been able to play specific playlists from Deezer.”

It's a real shame that there has been 0 updates provided on this issue in maybe over 4 years this saga has been carrying on for far too long and the only updates given have been "developers are aware of the issue". Not good enough and having been incredibly patient it's a real shame that I am going to have to finally cancel my Deezer subscription and switch to either Amazon music or Spotify.

Possibility of close desktop app via right hands top exit button is fixing for years. Demand for Alexe skill is far far away for decades.

It's been over 4 years since the first comment about lack of integration with Alexa and/or Sonos! Come on guys what's the hold up! Although I see Deezer as an option within Sonos the play list is limited add not at all what I get using the Deezer app. Using the Deezer app, I can't choose Sonos as a streaming device! Very frustrating and may be the reason I cancel our subscription. 😖

Hi, few months ago Deezer has enabled posibility to play my own playlist via Alexa. The formula is “Alexa, play (shuffle) playlist XY”, or “Alexa, play my favorit music”.

Is its working

Hi @tragester, indeed it correct what @jirikovoego said. Playing personal playlists on Alexa is available since a couple of months ago. 

Regarding Sonos integration with Deezer, we are working very close with them to release great news during 2024. 

This year, Sonos started the own voice control in specific countries and Deezer works great with Sonos commands.

So who knows what great new features are been cooked. Just hope you can stay with us to see these releases.

Hi @Leonídia.Deezer 

I loved Deezer but cancelled my paid membership a long time back for the lack of Alexa integration with personal playlists. I have to ask why, if it is now working, that no formal announcement was made.

It seems like you could regain members with this simple announcement.

You also mention months ago. Is it still in some alpha version. Is this why there was no announcement?.

Any idea why Alexa won't play my playlists, apart from two? 

It plays 'My Favourites' & 'Timz Faves' but won't play any other playlists I've created. Is there something I'm missing?

P.S. my download issue seems to be resolved & I hope I've not spoke too soon. 🫣😬

Thanks

Tim
