Description from store
Adds the following default keyboard shortcuts to open.spotify.com:
Play/Pause media key: play, pause – opens a Spotify tab Spotify if necessary!
Previous media key: previous track
Next media key: next track
There is no default shortcut, but you can also bind keys for:
Navigating to the home page or the search page – opens a Spotify tab if necessary!
Toggle shuffle
Toggle repeat (single song, whole playlist, disabled)
Toggle song like (since 2024, requires focusing the browser tab)
Toggle showing the queue sidebar
Toggle showing "now playing" sidebar
Toggle showing lyrics
Increase, decrease & mute volume
Seek backward & forward in both songs (±5 seconds) and podcasts (±15 seconds)
You can customize these shortcuts and make them global hotkeys (not just while Chrome is in focus) by opening chrome://extensions/shortcuts.
Warning: Chrome/Chromium is known to not correctly register hotkeys after you've changed them in chrome://extensions/shortcuts. Please restart your browser by visiting chrome://restart after changes to shortcuts/hotkeys if you experience issues.
This extension relies on the HTML/CSS structure of the website. Spotify might break it by changing their frontend. Please report issues by clicking on the Support link.

- (2025-05-29) 하승훈: any ways to disable it in other tabs than spotify?
- (2025-03-19) Peter Ohannessian: was woking fine until recently I used to chose player key on my keyboard and was working for play and puse now days it asking me to use different keys like command P or something else
- (2024-10-19) Arash N: Works great! But the "like song" shortcut doesn't work as intended recently. Instead of liking the song it likes the whole playlist. Edit: Liked songs feature was fixed, everything works as intended again!
- (2024-02-24) Francisco Samuel Heredia: Excelente, llevo usandolá hace 4 años y funciona perfecto. INDISPENSABLE para los que trabajamos escuchando música, me permite en todo momento administrar Spotify sin tener que recurrir a la app.
- (2024-01-19) Jen Androes: 5 stars for intended purpose, it works great for setting up Spotify Hotkeys. However 1 or 2 stars if you use bluetooth devices with Chrome. It affects all websites and media controls outside of Spotify, somehow capturing and disabling bluetooth control functions from headphones and earbuds so when you tap an earbud to play/pause nothing happens. I rely heavily on bluetooth throughout the day but when this extension is enabled I can't control audio or video from ANY website (Youtube, podcasts, movies etc). Took me awhile to find the culprit, tested with numerous headphones and buds, different browsers, all kinds of geeky settings in Chrome and finally realized it was my new Spotify extension. All is working well now that I disabled it.
- (2023-12-13) Anthony Ferguson: Only works while clicked in browser not while in apps or applications other than chrome I don't get the point if one has to go back to chrome to use the shortcuts?
- (2023-12-01) SoulfulSlowMo: i am unable to use global play/pause as "ctrl+space" can you please fix this?
- (2023-09-18) Alex: Исправили проблему: Кнопки нажимаются во всех вкладках Spotify вместо одной какой-нибудь вкладки. Из-за этого происходит переход на столько песен вперед, сколько открыто вкладок.

- (2022-01-13) Andrejs Sautins: Doesn't work correctly with the current version of Spotify Web Player. When enabled the extension works fine for a while, but after a few songs the player stops reacting to the hotkeys and the extension has to be manually disabled and reenabled to work again.

- (2021-09-23) Wolfgang Reisinger: Never again without - I love it! It let you control spotify on a global level (browser dont need to be the active window). If I could change one thing: add volumecontrol for the spotify browser window.
