This works when you disable Media Keys in chrome to avoid that terrible little window in the top left corner Windows 10 when you play and pause media.

Does not work. Restarted, rebooted, checked everything. Just doesn't work for me on Mac.

Does exactly what it says on the tin! :-)

Does not work on my Logitech K810

Ben Forster 2019-12-08

It does play pause and skip in either direction but... it also skips two songs instead of one. Due to I've got to remove it and look for alternative solutions.

You have to enable Chrome in accessibility settings on macOS. Then it just works (using Catalina 10.15.1 and Chrome 78)

This extension is not needed anymore. Media keys started working with the new Chrome update.

Works great. I have used on Linux and Windows without any issues. I also switched to the Brave browser which is chromium based but it still works perfectly. This should be built into Chrome/Google Music already but you know.. Google is unable to ever update their existing products and only knows how to create new things. Great extension.

cool

The best, wonder why doesn't Google see this integration.

Alyssa Cantrell 2019-06-03

Works as expected on Windows 10 and Chrome 74. Thank you!

Outstanding! This works perfectly, whether Google Play Music is in focus or not. It even works on a Google Play Music app link on my Windows 10 taskbar--even when my browser is closed. When I open my MusicBee app to play hi-resolution music, the media keys properly focus on MusicBee. And when I close MusicBee, the media keys properly re-bind to Google Play Music. Genius!

Works perfectly!

Does EXACTLY what it says. Extremely useful, much appreciated. Exactly what I needed. I expect to never remove it.

Keith Enlow 2019-03-08

Perfect and simple solution. Works as described and also works when browser window is not in focus which is just the icing on the cake.

Derrick 2019-02-06

Does exactly what it says, no muss no fuss.

Paul White 2019-01-13

Funciona de maravilla :D

Tim West 2018-11-30

Honestly - I just want my G18 media buttons to work in Chrome - it works perfectly. Put a paypal donate button up! Id buy you a coffee for this!

Sandra Daniela 2018-11-20

Does it work with macOs Mojave Version 10.14.1 (18B75)? It's not working for me, keeps opening itunes. Any advice?

Ankit Duseja 2018-11-19

Great extension, I just wish it could control volume as well. I use it along with chromecast and it works well but volume cannot be controlled, instead it changes default system volume. But otherwise awesome for track change and play/pause.

daz tom 2018-11-15

OMG!! Thank you so much. Wondered why my keys stopped and couldn't find a reason any where and only old info. It now works as its supposed to thank thank thank thanks! Awesome dude.

Tony Prez 2018-10-28

A+ Added to chrome, clicked the icon and BAMF! my media keys worked!

Abraham Romero 2018-04-02

It worked fined the first days, but since the last weekend I haven't been able to make it work. when opening the debug console, I see the commands are executed when pressing the media keys, but the song doesn't change command: toggle_next command: toggle_prev command: toggle_playpause
