Deezer confirmed that it rolling out voice recognition support with Amazon Alexa, making at-home listening even more accessible. Deezer music streaming for Amazon Alexa is supported on Alexa devices and will be available in all territories where Deezer and Alexa are supported, including the US, UK and Germany through a gradual rollout. Deezer will be available on all devices that support Alexa such as Sonos One, Ultimate Ears, and others.

On November 9, 2017, I attended the Futuresource Audio Collaborative 2017 conference, at the Ham Yard Hotel in London.
