About this app
Deezer is a music streaming service with a large catalogue, plus podcasts and, in some countries, radio and audiobooks. The centrepiece is Flow, a never-ending personalised mix of favourites and new suggestions, and the recommendation engine has plain controls for steering what it serves up. On-screen lyrics come with translations, SongCatcher identifies whatever is playing nearby, and Transfer My Music imports playlists from another service. Shaker blends playlists with friends, and Music Quiz can be played solo or against others. The Homepage and Library can be rearranged. It works on Apple Watch, Fitbit and Wear OS, smart speakers such as Alexa, HomePod Mini and Sonos, and in cars with Automotive OS. The free tier has ads and limited features. Premium removes ads and adds offline downloads, unlimited skips and lossless HiFi audio, with Duo, Family and Student plans available.
Deezer: Music Player, Podcast: the full guide
What the app is
Deezer streams music from a large catalogue, with podcasts alongside and, depending on country, radio and audiobooks. The feature it leads with is Flow, an endless personal mix of what you like and what it thinks you'll like next, and the recommendation controls are plain enough that steering it isn't a fight.
Lyrics include translations, SongCatcher identifies music playing nearby, and Transfer My Music brings playlists over from another service. Shaker mixes playlists with friends and Music Quiz turns the catalogue into a game. It runs on watches from Apple, Fitbit and Wear OS, on Alexa speakers, the HomePod Mini and Sonos, and on car dashboards running Automotive OS.
How it works day to day
A typical day begins with Flow on the commute, which saves choosing. Lyrics come up for the songs you half-know, and when something unfamiliar plays in a café, SongCatcher names it and adds it. In the evening the Homepage, rearranged to put your own shortcuts first, gets you to a podcast or a playlist in a tap.
Switching from another service is one Transfer My Music run. The free tier interrupts with ads and limits a few things; Premium lifts the ads, adds downloads for the plane and unlimited skips.
Why people look for it
People look for Deezer as an alternative to the two biggest streaming services, often for the HiFi lossless tier or because a friend abroad uses it. The playlist transfer tool lowers the cost of trying it. A 4.7 rating from 10K+ reviewers is good, though the count is small for a global service, which may reflect the iOS listing's region.
Look and feel
Five screenshots on the page will probably show Flow, a lyrics screen, the Homepage and a device-connection view. Streaming apps follow a dark-interface convention with album art doing the visual work, and Deezer's identity is its purple-to-pink colour accent. The rearrangeable Homepage and Library mean the layout you see depends partly on you.
