- (2020-04-03) Elvis Furtado: It doesn't show the notifications and also on clicking the icon, you can't see either the title or the song artist, or the album image. It's not working as it's supposed to.
- (2017-06-21) Vincenzo Salvo: It works great! It would be nice an option to set the time duration of the notification
