Deezer x Sonos

As some of you may already know, Deezer entered into a long-term partnership with Sonos earlier this year. Since April, Deezer's streaming radio service, Sonos Radio, and its subscription service, Sonos Radio HD, have provided an extensive, curated music catalog.
 

We in the Community team therefore want to take the opportunity to start a cooperation here too 💪. Sonos also has a 👉cool community 👈 So you can be excited to see what's to come. 😎

 

Sonos stylish speakers deliver incredible sound for music, TV and much more. They are the perfect partner for our music catalog. 🤝 The Sonos app allows you to listen to your entire Deezer music library in every room of your home. 🎵
 


Sonos really has a wide range of products, there is something for every taste 🔉

  HERE you will find an overview and detailed descriptions of all speakers.

 

❗ Do you already know Sonos? Do you use the products? What are your recommendations? Feel free to leave a comment about it. ❗

“Don’t want to sound too nerdy, but I’ve tried it on a Chromebook, Windows 11, Mac OS X and Linux Mint. And on iOS.

It won’t stay open on my Chromebook. I finally ended up deleting it and will wait for a newer version as I primarily use the app on my phones anyway.

I agree though, @awesomemac , this is a considerable improvement all around, although I did not have the complaints others had about the previous app.

I’m just happy that my preferred music service, deezer, has what I feel is the best integration with my preferred speaker system.

I haven’t tried the Sonos app on the Chromebook, but I’m using the webapp, which is working fine on the Chromebook.

https://play.sonos.com/en-us/web-app

But it’s odd that the new Sonos app isn’t available at the Google Play Store here in The Netherlands.

But when reading the comments about the update on X, well, it looks like a lot of people aren’t very happy about this update.

Question on the new Sonos app on Android (which is a bit of a disaster).

When  viewing / playing Deezer tracks / albums / playlists via the Sonos app, the context menus are now very sparse, and most of the functionality has been removed. For example, I can’t add a track to a Deezer playlist now, but I could last week.

Is this something to be fixed on the Sonos side, or does Deezer need to apply an update to its integration with Sonos?

Thanks

The webapp for me is inconsistent, sometimes I get this, and even when it loads it won’t move music from room to room.

The iOS and Android apps are also showing a number of inconsistencies. I’m just going to be patient as Sonos and its partners works through this.

I am mildly tempted to unbox one of my HomePods in the meantime. 😳

Yeah, don't update the android or ios apps. They are not working well and lots basic functionality is missing. 

I've updated my post to specify that I'm on android but both operating systems apps are having the same issues by all accounts.

I’m using the old MacOS app and it’s work as a charm … since Sonos app is in “PLS” and Deezer Connect … well … it’s not connecting to the major multiroom vendor for the last 20 years ….

Is there an update from Deezer on this?

If I’m correct, the Sonos app should be updated a couple of times now and a lot of features should be back.

Most of the Deezer actions are definitely not back. Things like adding songs to playlists and suchlike. You can add to favourites but that's about it.

No idea if it's a Sonos or Deezer side fix that is required, but it's pretty annoying, truth be told.
