Apple's HomePod and HomePod mini smart speakers now support voice control for Deezer.

In Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Japan, Mexico, Spain, the UK and the USA, subscribers of Deezer Premium, HiFi, Family or Student tiers can now ask Siri to play specific tracks, artists, albums, favourites or playlists on their Apple wireless speaker hands-free.

Saying “Hey Siri, play my Flow”, for example, will begin an endless mix of tracks based on the user's tastes, plus suggested tracks to help them discover new artists. Voice commands aren't, however, supported for Deezer's podcasts, audiobooks and live radio.
