Windows/Mac Deezer Desktop/Web App - Feedback for improvementsFeedback

Thanks @STeeL835  Could you please be more specific? What do you think we can improve on? I see you are tweaking deezer’ appearance little by little, so I think you can improve the layout of this panel too, giving more focus on essential elements like media buttons, seekbar and the main info about the current track. The problem on the screenshot is that it gets many elements in such a way that you can’t see even 1 character of a track name. And the screenshot isn’t even that narrow (though it is minimal width for the app as of now).Probably, make it responsive by moving/regrouping/hiding elements in popups/menus, reducing paddings as panel gets smaller and smaller.I’m not a designer, but I tried to make something that would fit more things, just for example. Not insisting on it, but just to show some ideas.It’s more dense, but has room for track info, volume slider, bigger track cover, bigger seekbar (with less screaming default color), and queue source. Clicking track cover could o

Integration with ZapierIn discussion

The last one is about the fact that it only launched in Russia in 2020, but launched so hard that there are still ads everywhere and interviews with russian music artists, etc. only podcasts are missing (which is also a pain spot, since some people stopped uploading podcasts everywhere but spotify).

Are you referring to the community menu? No I’m referring to Deezer’s new context menus. Now they look more like modals than compact desktop context menu popups. The menu items look like they are made for touch mode.Also, playlist covers disappeared, search box in “Add to playlist” doesn’t receive focus automatically, and scrolling isn’t prevented - you can move mouse scroll wheel (or put 2 fingers on a touchpad) and the menu will disappear when page starts to scroll. (I don’t remember if previous implementation handled the last 2 points, but I can’t check, so I can only say that I feel like it did)

Right mouse button click to show context menuI remember that before redesign Deezer allowed to right click tracks in addition to buttons and showed their context menus, after redesign this feature wasn’t re-implemented, now seeing this in Spotify I begin to miss this in Deezer.Also, why this menu got so big? I don’t use tablet mode, so probably you could make it smaller for desktops

Seeker background color  Make it less bright and more transparent. Now it’s so grey that for some colors you have to look really close to see track progress

Custom tags/ratings/tag songs and then create dynamic playlistsIn discussion

I agree with suggestions about colored personal tags for track. I could use tags to mark specific songs I want to find faster or categorize in some way.These tags could work like a special playlist butwith it’s own column in the tracks table (with clickable names, this column shouldn’t include conventional playlists) it would be personal (others could see them if they are looking in your playlist, but that should have a separate security toggle if even implemented) with color (if not a property, maybe an extracted color from playlist cover) tracks are filtrable/searchable by several tags inclusion (AND/OR/NOT, like ‘everything but explicit/guilty pleasure’ or ‘rock & lyrics’ - logical evaluation is probably the hardest part about all this) probably with a separate tab for such playlists (or they could be put in ‘Tags’ folder when you implement them) A UI that lets you add a track to several playlists/tags at once or create them right there just by writing name also system tags like

Copy Track name - Artist button in share menuSometimes you want to share a track in form of it’s info - Artist and track name, maybe album, because links are forbidden where you want to share it, the link is redundant in context, a person can’t/doesn’t want to open it, or simply because it would be convenient. Currently you can’t do that easily - in queue screen (and in other places) text isn’t selectable and you have to re-type it yourself.It would be convenient if ‘Share‘ modal had a ‘copy’ button not only for links, but also for track name, which would copy name, artist and album to clipboard. Maybe also a link on the next line, if you need that promotion bit, I personally don’t mind, but I see how it can be annoying for some people (like if it was is too loud, on 3 lines - basically an AD, but you pay for it)

Track covers in track lists Every track (generally, if it’s not an album, but a playlist, but I think, there can be exceptions?) has different cover art. If the playlist table contained a column with a small preview of this art, this would improve searching experience, because color is much more noticable that different letters. In case when all you remember of a track is a color palette of it’s cover art, it’s especially useful. And a small note - don’t remove track number, if you can - it helps with orientation in very long playlists like favourites

A mini player When you resize the window too small (300x500px for example) it would turn into a current track screen with a separate tab for queue

Agree about settings, it could accumulate different settings in one place with tabs Window viewport zoom (to keep it on restarts) (also make zoom in on ctrl + [+], not ctrl + shift + [+]) Close button behavior Sound settings from popup on music control panel Sound output settings (windows can’t help you if you have wireless headphones connected and suddenly sounds start to play from laptop speakers) Crossfade and cue settings (I remember they were implemented in previous major version) A path for music cache A list of paths with music stored locally (but that’s for using it as a regular player, which is a separate big feature) Some settings don’t have functionality right now, but such functionality is nice to have

On windows, if you click on window titlebar when window isn’t in focus and press Ctrl+[-], it gets smaller (the viewport zoom stays the same). You can press Ctrl + Shift + [+] to make it bigger, even beyond 100% zoom

Mark links/buttons that open browser with a special icon. There aren’t many links that open external browser, but when you click one, it can confuse you a little

Show progress bar when uploading Mp3s to the browser version of DeezerNot for now

Totally agree. Maybe make it as a part of a table row, like when you press upload in explorer, new rows are added with grayed out file names, and progress bars.

Lyrics feature - We need your feedback!

If you are going to implement community lyrics editing feature, think about how to support the right ones, because while musixmatch is taking lyrics from community, their solution is flawed: Lyrics are getting written by people, then verified by “moderators” who are also people but with a lot of karma-like points. The problem is that lyrics are getting locked after their review, so if lyrics are wrong you can left a feedback about wrong lyrics, but not correct them right away. Basically, a lot of them moderators are karmafarmers, who don’t even look at the lyrics anymore. Last year I was complaining about X by Welshly Arms. I did it twice, but the lyrics are still wrong. Lyrics on Genius were corrected, thanks to IzaFfiew, who noticed our comments, but not on musixmatch. The fault's all my own And I should've knownSo maybe lock them by people who surely can be trusted (your music moderators idk) or don’t lock them at all Maybe give points not to users, but to lines. Like everyone can (
