Breaking news…

For France deezer connect with Sonos roll out has started. 😎

 

I have been waiting for this feature for 4 years!! Now I've lost my hearing! Thanks!

It's a shame how you are deceiving your users.

I have been paying your HI FI service two years just awaiting this feature to be available, but I'm almost sure now that it will never happens.

Ok, I'm going to wait 2 months more and then I will be back to Spotify.

Any news on this?? This has been going on forever!! Why is it taking so long?

How in God's name can this take so long?

You are neglecting your subscribers!

Why??????

I just want to add that this feature would be important for me too. 

I subscribed to the trial but the fact that this feature is missing is a deal breaker. Sad.

Hey there, @Adam Ogiliev

Yes it is still in our projects! 

Hi there Deezer. 

 

Is there any update on this project? This would be a killer feature and help to retain some loyalty. 

 

Thanks

Adam

Hello everyone, unfortunately this was a project that was pushed back several times. 

We apologise for that, and understand your frustration. 

We are currently re working on it and I am confident this time will be the good one!

That is unfortunately not entirely true as certain parts of my music (like daily mixes, friday releases, monday discovery etc) are not available in the SONOS app.

 

 

With Deezer, you can use the Sonos Controller app to stream your entire Deezer music library to any room in the house.

Deezer Team,

 

4 years in the making. A year ago it was under development still. 8 months ago still under development.

Plenty of Android users, plenty of people paying HD+ with you.

When will this be available through the Deezer App? As a premium service, you should be aligned better with premium home wi-fi... there's enough demand, and only half cooked answers for 4 years from the Deezer development team.

 

Let's go!!!! When will this be available for Android and ISO..

I am in same situation, except that I don't mind the Sonos app. But on the Deezer app I can see Flow, daily mix, suggested playlists I might like. And on Sonos I get Flow, plus some generic playlists that contain lots of tracks that have nothing to do with my tastes.

Selecting a Sonos speaker seems like a simple thing.

Yes, I know, but using the user interface of the Deezer app or the Sonos app is a great difference. The Sonos app has a terrible user interface.

Using the Spotify app you use the Spotify app, and cast/stream the music to Sonos. I expected this too for Deezer.

I am in the same situation, looking for an alternative to Spotify. Having to manage your music in one app and then use another app to play it on your Sonos system is a dealbreaker.

Deezer has been working for 3 years to get their Android app to play directly on Sonos? I guess I won't hold my breath. It's a shame, lots of ex spotify customers like myself looking for a new app. I'm trying your hi-fi subscription and it's a shame deezer wasn't ready.

Hello, because of the action of Niel Young, I decided to look for another streaming service. The dealbreaker is now: can I cast to my Sonos audiogear from Deezer? What is the last statement?

We sure will @exhook we will be developing this but we still need more time before we get there - thank you for your support :v_tone2:

I am doing a demo as Google Music is going away. Bit of a deal breaker, Tidal and Spotify both have this feature. Let us know if it changes.

Hi there @jlhunter70 

Always. But this involves a lot of work from a lot of resources. So far we haven't stopped, but it'll take some time until we complete it. Thank you for your support and patience though, we know it can be frustrating :thumbsup_tone2:

How is this going Deezer, can do it on Spotify for years, what's the hold up don't you want to be better??
