- 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.
- François Georgy
- Does not work. Restarted, rebooted, checked everything. Just doesn't work for me on Mac.
- Ethan Berg
- adds support for keyboard media buttons. exactly what i wanted
- Trev Evans
- Does exactly what it says on the tin! :-)
- Jon Brock
- Does not work on my Logitech K810
- Ben Forster
- 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.
- Dima Rostopira
- You have to enable Chrome in accessibility settings on macOS. Then it just works (using Catalina 10.15.1 and Chrome 78)
- Darek Greenly
- 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.

- The best, wonder why doesn't Google see this integration.
- Alyssa Cantrell
- Works as expected on Windows 10 and Chrome 74. Thank you!
- Live Long & Prosper
- 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
- 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.

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

- 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
