Amazon Alexa Deezer

How do I make Deezer my default music service? In the Amazon Alexa mobile app, press Home Settings Music & Media. Press Choose default music services. Under the Default music library section, select Deezer, and then press Done. Deezer is now your default music service. Note: US customers, you cannot set Deezer as the default music service. If the fault lies with Amazon/Alexa or Deezer then please be upfront and tell the Deezer community what is going on.

Sign into your Deezer account and tap the Accept button to grant Alexa permission to access your Deezer account. Tap Done at the page confirming that Deezer has been successfully linked and then start listening. Set Default Services. Continue adding any other services you wish to use. Scroll to the bottom of the Music page in the Alexa app.
