⚡ TECHNICAL EXCELLENCE
============================================================
- Ultra-Efficient: Powered by MutationObserver technology. Unlike other extensions, we don't "poll" or slow down your browser. We only update when Spotify does, saving your CPU and RAM.
- Accessibility First: Fully optimized with semantic ARIA labels for seamless screen reader support.
- Global Control: Works even when Chrome is minimized, in the background, or while you're gaming.
============================================================
⌨️ GLOBAL KEYBOARD SHORTCUTS
============================================================
Control your music from anywhere on your system:
- Play/Pause: Shift + Alt + Up
- Next Track: Shift + Alt + Right
- Previous Track: Shift + Alt + Left
- Pause Only: Shift + Alt + Down
(Note: To enable Global support, go to chrome://extensions/shortcuts and set the scope to "Global" for each shortcut.)
============================================================
⚠️ IMPORTANT NOTE
============================================================
This extension is designed exclusively for the Spotify Web Player (open.spotify.com). It does not control the Spotify Desktop app. For the best experience, please ensure the Web Player is open in one of your tabs and the Desktop app is closed.
