Music App With Deezer Integration

[ooberandy]

I'm looking for a music player app with Deezer integration, that is able to pause & play music when I disconnect/ reconnect from bluetooth.

My questions comes from wanting my music to automatically play on Bluetooth in the car. I currently use the Deezer app listening to music.

The music plays fine when I manually start the app & select what i want to play. I have a tasker profile setup, using the media utilities plugin, to pause & play the music. This works fine if I leave and return to the car in a short period, as it continues from the same point it was paused. But after a lengthy time then android closes the app and I have to restart the music manually, which will start the music from the song I choose and not the point it was stopped.

The app I developed called Music Player (Remix) has the ability to pause and play the music from within Tasker. I actually use this for pausing my music when an SMS message comes in while I'm driving (because the Tasker task will read the message to me).

To try it out, you can grab the 14-day fully-functional trial version here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.hedami.mprtrial

The paid version can be found here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.hedami.musicplayerremix

To pause the trial version, set up a "Send Intent" task in Tasker with the following "Action": com.hedami.mprtrial.musicservicecommand.pause. To play from the last paused spot, the "Action" would be com.hedami.mprtrial.musicservicecommand.play.

The full version would use the following Actions: com.hedami.musicplayerremix.musicservicecommand.pause and com.hedami.musicplayerremix.musicservicecommand.play.

And Android won't kill the app even if the music is paused because it runs as a foreground service (with a persistent notification). This is the default behavior of my app, but if desired it can be changed to act like most other music apps (notification is removed when you exit the app while the music is paused) by going into Preferences.

Thanks, that looks great. However, I don't have any music on my device as such. I sync albums to my phone with deezer. So when I open your app it doesn't recognise any music on my phone and the app closes (asking for me to put music on the device).

Yes the app is strictly meant for playing music files located on the device. I'm sorry if I misinterpreted what you were looking for.

I think the link below allows for apps to integrate with deezer. Not sure if this is something you might want to look at in future...

Deezer for developers

I've never even heard of deezer until I saw this thread. I went to deezer.com to find out more and it says it's not available in my country (United States). So I don't anticipate adding support for this...sorry!

Deezer is quite large over here in Europe. According to this article, they have over 5 million paying subscribers, only 1 million behind Spotify.

If it ever gets released over there, maybe you could look at the integration again
