No where on my B&O App though does it say it is playing in FLAC Lossless. I'm using version 1.2.0.9900
It must show FLAC on the right of the Deezer logo on top of the album cover in the now playing screen

No it doesn't say anything at all. Im not using a beta version of the B&O app though.
Can we expect this to work also with BV11?
at the moment i cant get standard Deezer to work via BV 11; the B&O app just gives fault message that this service is not supported by the selected device when playing a song.

The version you have handles the FLAC indicator, I'm using the same.
What device do you use to stream Deezer? It works on my Moment, M5 and A6.

I'm using deezer from my moment. I can't see any indicator on the app or the moment that suggests it is streaming in FLAC.
The two reasons i think i am streaming in FLAC are:
1. My deezer account confirms I've purchased HI FI
2. The sound seems better.
Perhaps i need to update to IOS 11.0.3?
All my bang and olufsen products have up too date software according to beotool

In order to see the indicator on the Moment you need to be on the Beta version of the Moment, which could also be the reason why you don't see it on the App, which is up to date in your case.
As i posted earlier I do think that even if not displayed on the JB, the streaming should be HiFi as your device can handle it, I may be wrong but your ears (like mine) are hearing the difference.

I have both a Beosound 2(updated firmware) and a non beta Moment (old firmware).
when I play through my b&o app, it shows flac for my beosound 2 but not my Moment.
i suspect the Moment still can’t play flac unless it is using beta firmware.

..... or can't report about it

Hi
Interestingly if i use my beoplay 6 or Beocentre 1 as 'lead speaker' in multi room and play deezer it displays FLAC on the B&O App. If i select my moment or my beocentre 2 (connected by an essence) and play deezer the App doesn't say FLAC, even though i assume FLAC is distributed through each speak and system.

In my system, I have an essence Mk2, a BeoSound 35, an M5, a Moment, and an Avant Mk1. I am located in the US, I have upgraded to Deezer HiFi, have all my devices running their respective current software, and I am using only the public release of the moment software and the B&O app.
Today, I tried using the B&O app to play Deezer via the B&O app on each of my devices. I could only get the FLAC indicator to display on the B&O app when I played Deezer via the B&O app on the M5. When I played Deezer via the B&O app on each of the essence Mk2, the BeoSound 35, the Moment, and the Avant Mk1, the FLAC indicator did not display on the B&O app.
However, when I played Deezer via the B&O app on the M5 (with the FLAC indicator displayed on the B&O app), and I added other multiroom devices, it played and continued to display the FLAC indicator on the B&O app regardless of what other multiroom devices I added.
My best guess is that the B&O app and the M5 has been upgraded to support Deezer HiFi, but that other devices have not yet had the software update to support this. People testing the beta Moment software say it supports Deezer HiFi, so I believe Deezer HiFi support is coming in the next software update. The question I have is whether Deezer HiFi support will be coming to the essence Mk2, BeoSound 35, and Avant Mk1. It is possible the devices support Deezer HiFi, and all that is missing is the indication that FLAC is playing.
