How to Use, Control & Listen to Deezer Music on Apple HomePod

Apple HomePod and HomePod Mini users can now integrate and connect Deezer to their smart speakers apart from Apple Music. With the latest third-party music streaming service integration to Apple devices, joining the likes of iHeartRadio, TuneIn, and Pandora, you can now control Deezer through Siri.

Enjoy your favorite tunes from over 73 million songs that make up the Deezer library including HiFi FLAC content, with Siri as your DJ. Control music playback using voice command on HomePod, ask Siri to favorite or unfavorite a song or play Flow, and shuffle and repeat playlists, albums, using Siri voice commands, are just some of the things you can do.

Unfortunately, live radio, podcasts, audiobooks, and any MP3s that you have uploaded to your Deezer account cannot be played using Siri.

With Deezer all set up on your Apple HomePod and HomePod Mini smart speaker, you can now speak to Siri to control the music streaming service with your voice. For instance, you can simply say the command “Hey Siri, play [insert your favorite band or artist here] on Deezer.”

Additionally, if you have set Deezer to be the default music player on HomePod, you can omit the “on Deezer” part and it will still play something for you from the service.
