Just started a trial, and I guess I’ll see if this feature is added before the trial period ends! I really hope it happens.
Yeah I do prefer the system of just adding Tracks, and then Albums and Artists are just derived from that. Add a track to Favourites - the Album and Artist now appear in your list I disagree completely. There are plenty of single tracks I like from artists or albums that I couldn’t care less about as a whole.
As far as I know that is already the case: the Flow algorithm is only based on favourite tracks, albums and artists and is not even based on songs in a playlist (which are not marked with a heart) and not based on recently played songs which are not in favourites. This cannot be correct. I’m in my trial period and therefore have a relatively fresh account. I clicked on a “chill” playlist because I thought it would be like those instrumental chillhop stations, but it was more like downtempo pop and hip-hop (with vocals). I don’t like either of those genres so I stopped the playlist pretty quickly after a couple skips. My favorite albums and artists are entirely metal, soundtrack, and jazz so far, but I cannot get rid of pop and hip-hop artists from my flow. It pushes me away from using the feature at all.
Hi @tjgavlick please bear in mind that we are talking about FLOW here and not the playlist Chill. Totally — I only mentioned the playlist because that’s how those tracks were added to my listening history when otherwise I would have not sought them out. Later, Flow took those inadvertent listens into account when choosing songs. I think based on the above post it might simply be because my account is relatively new and Flow doesn’t have much to work with, so it’s grasping at straws a bit. As of now I’ve only favorited 11 artists, 36 albums, and 0 tracks. Perhaps it will refine itself as I build out a larger library.
If it’s going to not be in the cards for this year, might as well start your development with a PS5 version once that drops and then backfill to PS4 if practical
I’ve noticed something about flow that is getting a tad annoying. I have a lot of favorited albums, but not many favorited specific tracks. Flow seems to only want to play the first track of a given favorited album, which seems like an odd decision to me — doubly so because a not insignificant percentage of first tracks are intros or preludes. There’s a whole tracklist’s worth of stuff to choose from, flow! I believe in you! Flow might be choosing album tracks based on popularity, since it’s only logical that tracks will get less popular the later in a given album you go. If this is the case, I would encourage a little more adventurism in this department.
basically when you add album of artist X you would like this artist to be automatically added to your favourite artists? And all songs of that album to be automatically added to your favourite songs? Throwing a vote in against this
No results for, as an example, label: "tzadik" or label: "tzadik records" on the macOS desktop application. For what it’s worth, it seems to be url-encoding my search — my results screen reads “No results for “ label%3A “tzadik””
We've picked this up this year, and right now, as we speak, we're doing some tests on our mobile apps Is the plan for this to be app-only? Any love for the web player? Stuck at home, that’s what I use pretty much exclusively these days
Apple tv is thought for series I would say...To listen music in your tv, probably it has its own Deezer app, if not, you can send by bluetooth, airplay or with web-browser of TV Speaking for the 95% of us without TVs that have their own “apps” or browsers: Apple TV app, please
So happy to see traction on this. Doesn’t seem to have rolled out to my 6S yet, but gaps do seem to be shorter than before …
Yeah, I’m getting really short gaps now (which is much better than it was) but still not gapless. Must be the longest-tailed feature rollout in history. iOS 13.1.1 on a 6S, app version 8.13.0.4
