Description from extension meta

Media keys support for online radio and streaming music apps.

Image from store Media Keys by Sway.fm
Description from store Link your keyboard's native media keys to streaming radio and music apps to play, pause and skip songs like you would iTunes, even when Chrome is in the background or focused on a different tab. The controls, currently playing song and album art also appear in the extension's popup so you can skip hunting for which tab is playing your music, or in case you don't have media keys. If you play a track in a new tab while music is already playing in another, the extension pauses the old music so you hear the new, preventing you from playing two songs on top of each other. It supports dozens of music apps, with more being added by request. @Swayfm -- [email protected] We support: 22tracks 8tracks Albumkings Amazon Music Audiogalaxy Bandcamp Beats Music Cliggo Deezer di.fm dr.dk radio DREAMFM Earbits Ex.fm Feedly (for podcasts) FocusAtWill Gaana GetWorkDoneMusic.com Google Music Grooveshark iHeartRadio Jango JB HiFi Now Last.fm Mixcloud Music163 musicforprogramming.com Mog MyCloudPlayer Netflix HTML5 Player (beta) Noon Pacific New MySpace Nokia Mixradio Overcast.fm Pandora Player.fm Playlist.com Pleer Plex Poolsidefm RBMAradio Rdio Rhapsody Saavn Scribd Shuffler.fm Slacker Radio Songdrop Songza Soundcloud Soundtracker Spotify Stitcher Subsonic Sverigesradio The Hypemachine (hypem.com) Thesixtyone Thisismyjam.com TidalHifi Tubalr TuneIn Radio Turntable.fm Twitter Music Vessel Vimeo Wearehunted Xbox Music Yandex Music Yandex Music Youtube (beta, only on youtube.com) and a lot more, i kind of stopped keeping track.

  • (2019-09-28) Tethtibis Deseidhr: Once I read the info and actually mapped the keyboard shortcuts as directed, it worked fantastically.
  • (2019-02-27) Scribd doesn't work.
  • (2018-12-13) Jaymo: I've used it for years and for about 95% of the time it works perfectly and when it doesn't, it's usually fixed within a week or so. However, recently the developer's website has gone offline so the email does not work but he is still pushing updates so can't really complain there. Disclaimer: I downloaded the extension when it was free and did NOT pay for it.
  • (2018-12-05) Артем Игнатьев: Doesn't work with youtube music :(
  • (2018-03-11) Ricky Dwi: why i cant backwards videos in youtube ? PLease answer im using k95 Platinum Until It fixed my rated will still be the same
  • (2018-01-06) Mike Binns: Loved it but it seems to have stopped working recently.
  • (2017-12-28) Ryan Swaim: Never worked and never got a response from the developer to refund my purchase.
  • (2017-10-13) Joe Pairman: Worked alright for a couple of hours then stopped working with my Mac's media keys altogether. Have tried restarts, reinstalls, going into settings, but nothing works. An email to the developers bounced. Also, developer doesn't seem to be responding to support items on here? Not sure what else I can do — happy to adjust rating if I later find out there's a way to get it working.
  • (2017-09-06) Matt Adshead: This is a good utility app. As others have said seems to not work, at least for Mixcloud, as of recently. There's one feature this plugin is sorely missing which would make it a lot better. That feature is simply a switch in the browser toolbar icon which allows you to toggle the extension on and off on the fly. If you use this extension and want to switch between Spotify's desktop client and web based players a lot it is a curse as it prevents the Spotify client from responding to the media keys. If when switching to Spotify I could toggle the extension off from the toolbar rather than having to disable it in advanced Chrome settings this app would be so much more usable.
  • (2017-07-03) Oleg Tsarkov: Поддерживает Яндекс Музыку отлично, нажимать кнопку "пауза/воспроизведение" можно, находясь в любом приложении, и музыка действительно будет останавливаться и воспроизводиться. Также действуют контролы пропуска треков.
  • (2017-06-29) Chris Johnson: Love it and it's been very helpful, but has completely stopped working in the past week.
  • (2017-05-12) N Yv: Hey Sway can you update the extension, it does not work with the last layout of Youtube (they broke everything...)
  • (2017-01-03) Kevin Morris: I can't live without it!
  • (2016-10-28) This extension has a lot of promise and is the only one of its kind that actually works. However, it does not seem to work with a lot of external wireless keyboard media keys, only with laptop keyboard media keys, although this appears to be a driver compatibility issue, not exactly a bug, but will hopefully be remedied in future versions. Also, it sometimes doesn't recognize playing content on YouTube and the page hsa to be refreshed. Work in progress, otherwise thanks for the great extension!
  • (2016-09-11) Tomas Slusny: Working on Netflix, working on Spotify, so yea, my life is complete now. Never bought Chrome extension before, but this one is worth every cent spent. EDIT: Changed to 4 stars because album art link is broken.
  • (2016-08-29) Phillip Quinlan: OMG, it works! I am from New Zealand by the way! Works even though you are in another application! Note that you need to refresh the website so that it can detect it. Using for Google Play Music by the way.
  • (2016-06-21) Patrick Kennedy: My "o.o amazeballs" moment was when I was listening to an OST on Bandcamp after listening to stuff on Google Music and after I hit play on my keyboard I thought "aww. Now I have to pause and go hunt for the tab." Much to my surprise it did exactly what I would have wanted and started Bandcamp up again. Thanks for making such a wonderful extension! UPDATE 06/21/16: I went to grab it for my work computer and found it has moved to a pay model, and I just want to say for anyone reading it's completely worth $2. Not having to pause your music to watch a Youtube video a friend sends you makes it worth every penny.
  • (2016-05-19) Jonathan Walker: It just works, that's the beauty of it.
  • (2016-05-15) Aleš Nezbeda: OMG, this is worth every cent I paid. It is totally awesome! Good job.
  • (2016-04-29) Brien Prendergast: Love the ability to pause my music with a remote rather than having to come to the PC everytime.
  • (2016-04-19) Perrrrfect on Chrome with Mac. I run it with Songza (also awesome, download it now!) and my keyboard skip/pause keys work nearly flawlessly now matter what screen I'm on/in!!!
  • (2016-02-11) Mark Benson: The only extension I have ever paid for. Totally worth it, makes Play Music work like a native media player on all the platforms I use!
  • (2016-02-08) Muhammad Usman: I love this extension! It's very useful for listening to multiple music sources, like youtube, pandora, and spotify.
  • (2016-01-18) Jason Davis: even works with amazon music. Well worth the ££
  • (2015-11-09) Mateusz Golewski: Doesn't work with OSX El Captain, Chromium and Spotify Web Player: http://sh.st/bCL71
  • (2015-10-16) Emiliano Onorati: AMAZING EXTENSION! A must have
