Hi there Deezer. 

 

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

 

Thanks

Hi @awesomemac, thank you for your message.

Sonos Voice Control is currently only available in the United States and France, so since you are from the Netherlands, it won't be available for you for now.

More info about Sonos voice here.

Regarding the issue of the "playlist returning to the beginning after viewing the home screen," as this seems to be on Sonos side, er have already report this to them to see how this can be resolved.

We appreciate your preference for using the Deezer app instead of Sonos. We are collaborating closely with Sonos to make this option available, but we do not have an estimated time for its implementation.

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

Its been 5 years since the initial request. WHEN are you going to implement?

The sonos "Flows" cycle through the same old artists and tracks i am not interested in hearing anymore. Is there a way to atleast refresh the algorithm from the deezer app that sonos can read?

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

Any news on this ? You are saying for year that you are working on it but still no news.

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

5 years people have been asking for direct play from app to sonos (not via their app)

Please

Please do this. 

I’m so happy in the car when I can use the real app. 

Come home to my 3K sonos system, and it makes me use the sonos app. So sad...

Please

Still working on it ?

Hi just started a free trial and have downloaded Deezer on Sonos.

when I go to play music On Deezer I click on audio then devises but it's only showing my iPad to play on not Sonos.

I have deleted Deezer on Sonos rebooted and reinput Deezer again on Sonos still have the same problem.

Deezer is not recognising Sonos.

please advice.

 

Yep, also want this functionality. Is there a technical reason unique to Deezer or does Sonos charge Deezer for this functionality? If neither please advise if on your roadmap of future improvements.

Hi, I thought I'd recommend the method I use to everyone. I usually use ****** to batch download my favorite Deezer playlists to a local computer, which can be a Windows or Mac computer, and then open the Sonos app for MacOS or Windows. From the Administration menu, select Music Library Settings. Click the + (plus sign) button on MacOS or the Add button if you're using Windows. Then select Deezer songs that have been locally converted to popular audio formats and add them to Sonos.

I’ve bought a Sonos last week and yes, it works fine while using the Sonos app, but hopefully there will be an update. And after this update we will be able to use Deezer and Sonos.

This is an Android issue, I take it? I just AirPlay directly from the deezer app to my Sonos.

Hi @Mdkharris1, indeed it has been a long time since users started to request there.

We are working very closely with Sonos to bring every year new features, but I can’t tell when this feature to connect Deezer to Sonos will be available.

 

Hi Rudy,

Already vote 2 years ago for this idea

But if we still have to vote for getting it prioritised, it means that until now you have not worked on it ...

@Superschlumpf apologies for the misinformation (my bad and I prefer to be transparent rather than deleting the post)
Sonos support for Deezer connect is not available in any country yet and there is no ETA either.
What we recently launched in France and the US was Deezer on Sonos Voice Control and support for the Flow Moods.
As soon as I have information regarding Deezer Connect I’ll let you know

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. 

How is this coming? I'm currently leaving Spotify due to the new “tik-tok-style"-app, which f-ed up the UX. But I'd really like this feature so I can choose Deezer over Tidal. Tnx.

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

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:

Hi there @Thomas Verstraeten

Please vote for the idea here so that it can be prioritised 😉

This tool is called ????

This doesn't resolve the trouble of wanting to use the Deezer app to control the music playing on Sonos

Hi Bigdubz, please note that you can't control Sonos from the Deezer app at the moment. But you need to add Deezer as music service to your sonos app and control it directly from the sonos app 🙂 I'll let you know, should this change in the future 🙂
