- It used to work perfectly and i configired the shortcuts to CNTRL + right arrow for skip, left arrow for previous and space for stopping, but now it only opens a new spotify tab every time i click these keys. Can anyone help me with this issue?

- Really like it, awesome that the shortcuts work from other tabs. What would be awesome is to customize the hotkeys. :) **edit: SORRY! I didn't read your description. We're able to customize the shortcuts. :$ i tried messing with your code, but this also works. 5stars.**

- This is awesome! Although the Spotify web app itself stops playing every so often, this is a great add-on for anyone using it. EDIT: When I put the Chrome hotkeys to "global", it doesn't work sometimes. I'll try using the other mode and see how that works. EDIT: I've tried it again, but it doesn't work at all...:(

- Works perfect! No Lag b/w the shortcut keys press and web player reaction:) Global setting helps it control from desktop too. Restart chrome once if its not working as intended!

- The extension worked perfectly until yesterday. Spotify has obviously updated the web player. Now instead of start/pause a new Spotify browser tab is opened. I hope this will be fixed soon.

- Funktioniert tadellos. Scrollen Sie für die Konfiguration die Liste Ihrer Erweiterungen herunter (chrome://extensions/), um hier den Verweis „Tastenkombination“ zu nutzen. In dem anschließenden Dialogfenster können Sie eigene Einstellungen vornehmen.

- No me ha servido, incluso cambiando los atajos.

- It's brilliant! You don't have to pay for Spotify Web Player; the free version of the downloaded Spotify has ads, whereas the online one doesn't. This app allows you to skip songs/play/pause/rewind songs for the web player. (NOTE: Go to your extensions, then go to the bottom, it should say "Keyboard Shortcuts", after that select what keys you want to have as the skip/play/pause/previous buttons and ensure it's on global as this will allow you to control the web player on and off Chrome.) I highly recommend!
- Thanh Nguyen
- It would be great, if there was also a hotkey to star songs!
- NICHOLAS JHOSHTNER
- this is one of the best music apps
- Shane White
- Thank you!! This works great!
- David Utterman
- Awesome, works without having Chrome active. Also it works with the keyboard media keys! 5 out of 5, nice work.
- David Aman
- After restarting Chrome, this worked perfectly. Got my multimedia keyboard programmed. This is exactly what I wanted. Thank you!! *update* I just discovered I can change the hotkeys to work outside of Chrome too, and now I can control Spotify without having to switch to Chrome first. This makes it even perfect-er! Perfectlier? perfectx2.
- Dale Davies
- Perfect. NOTE: You can change the shortcut keys to anything you like in chrome://extensions at the the bottom, 'Keyboard Shortcuts'
- Susanna Winter
- Does what it says on the tin. Had to hunt for the keyboard settings for a while but once I found it, it was easy to configure -- I now can control the Spotify web player with my media keyboard.
- Andreas Scharf
- awesome! does exactly what it says :) but please think of a different set of standard keys, because for example, on the german QWERTZ keyboard layout, it is not possible to select the previous song because < and > are the same key (when you press alt + shift)
