Flow repeats tracks

Sorry to hear that.

You will receive good news, perhaps in 2021.

They are going to increase playlist limits. The well heard 2 000 limit anywhere Deezer will be much bigger. I can not guarantee unlimited however, that’s what their managers said here. I am now just repeating them, sorry. They do come with solution soon. I am waiting too, as Deezer is my life.

Premium.

Please do not forget to enjoy your finest life (and Deezer) as well!

Flow is really very very bad. I gave it a chance today after about two months and it played about an hour. Then I turned the phone off and on and the flow started playing the same songs again in the same order. Incredibly. I like daily mixes but flow is really a joke.

I'll pass these comments on straight away, @Placido09 very good feedback, thank you!

I have the same issue all the time. I’m not sure if this was ever fixed…?

Hey @tonks416 

Thanks for reporting it. What Android and Deezer app versions have you got installed?

I have found this as well, it is like the algo sees that a track has been played so bumps it further up the list to be played. Same with some of the playlists, always playing the same tracks (in different lists). It never seems to delve into my favourites (which has now hit the 2000 limit, another significant issue) but often just loops around the same set of tracks. 

On the plus side it has finally stopped playing me what I can only assume were promoted tracks like Justin Bieber, which is nowhere near my taste. 

So, generally, a mixed feedback @sethwj have you tried clearing the app's cache? Do you use our "don't recommend this track" feature?

About the favourites' limits, don't worry, we're sorting that out very very soon! 

Sorry Deezer Guys, but the same answer again,  “we pass it to the development team” since two years, and the same issue rises. Sorry, don’t take it personal, but this seems to me a “copy paste” uniform bullshit answer.

Same problem in my case as well. For example I love the band Rage. I’d be happy to hear their songs, but Flow passes only one song to me always. Almost in the same order any time. I alredy hate listening to Flow. People here seem to be very patient But I have changed your concurrence to Deezer 2 years ago for the same reason: the dayli and the weekly recomendations did not change. In that time they lost a lot of costumers and if you only promise changes but nothing happens you’ll loose too. At least me and my family, but I’m sure more is already gone and more will leave.

I agree that the Flow algorithm needs work and that it has needed work for 2+ years.  I've followed this chat over that period as has been suggested and aside from promises it is being worked on nothing appears to happen, similar to another chat I have been monitoring with similarly ineffective resolution.  I still believe that this should be easy to fix - if the algorithm can learn your favourites and indeed exclude tracks why on earth can't it select more tracks more randomly rather than repeating the same small percentage of my favourite tracks and ignoring the others?

It's all we can do really @gdr @János Elek, let our teams know about your experience. But the truth is that they're constantly working on improvements, which perhaps you don't see but other users do.

The good thing is that we're actually developing an update to Flow. It'll give you a bit more control over what you get and I honestly hope you'll like it. Stay tuned for more info, I'll be hopefully announcing in the homepage when the time comes
