A pirated app is a fake app mimicking Deezer's service. Hackers tweak and reuse Deezer's technology to unlock Deezer Premium features. Pirated apps rely on a specific version of the Deezer app, so once you've logged in you won't get any new features or app updates, including any bugs we've fixed.
The risks of using a pirated app
| Security | Using a pirated app can cause significant security risks. Hackers can steal your personal information, damage your device, attack your network or use malware, spyware or viruses to penetrate your information. |
| Performance | Installing a pirated app can result in more frequent crashes, freezes and loss of data. Your device may also experience voice and data issues with unreliable connections, inaccurate location data and dropped calls. |
| Battery | Hacked apps can cause battery drain, shortening the life of your Android, iPhone, iPad or tablet device. |
| Warranty | Rooting/jailbreaking can cause your device to go straight out of warranty and, if anything happens, your manufacturer will not cover damages. |
| Services | Certain apps may no longer work on your device. You may also notice that apps no longer receive notifications and experience issues synchronizing data. |
| Updates & new features | You may be unable to access or apply future software updates and new features. |
How to support the artists you love
Pirated apps do not support artists, musicians, composers, songwriters and podcasters. Digital streaming services like Deezer represent more than half of the global recorded music revenue and are an integral part of music.
As part of our mission to be one of the industry's fairest digital streaming services, we're championing a User-Centric Payment System (UCPS) that you can read more about here.
By using Deezer, you are showing support for the artists, musicians, composers, songwriters and podcasters you love. Sign up to one of our plans to listen to all your favorites. Using the real Deezer is a small price to pay to support the artists you love.
