All my life I was an offline music listener, but times change, so I thought I'll finally try some streaming, created an account on Tidal, downloaded the app to my Pixel 6a and Hiby R5 Gen II. All good and well, but there is something really wrong with this app - the playback almost always stops on both devices after one track, doesn't matter, if they're locked or not, it's also not a question of audio quality, because the same happens on low quality. Some error about connection issue and retry, but only way to play again is to close and open the app again, but it will do the same thing again and again. So I singed up to Deezer Premium and music playback works without any issue on both devices, locked or not, Hi-Fi quality or not, the same applies to YouTube Music on both devices.
And yes, I've changed all settings regarding the battery and power settings on both of the devices. I don't think my network is an issue, because it's 300 Mb fiber with very low latency, using Wi-Fi 5 router.
I've seen pretty much topics on different platforms about the unreliability of Tidal, but I'm quite surprised, that this is really so bad. Is there any solution or workaround? And has Deezer a comparable song database to Tidal? I don't need to use Tidal, I just want a reliable streaming app with lossless playback, mostly interesed in lesser known music artists (ambient, IDM, experimental, noise etc). Qobuz isn't available in my country.
