Like Songs Without Opening Spotify While preparing for exams
A one-tap Liked Songs toggle that stays in sync.
💡 Overview
Good songs show up at inconvenient times. Even a short detour into Spotify can turn into a lost half hour.
The popup includes a heart toggle that mirrors your Liked Songs state on the Web Player. Tap it, or press L inside the popup, to like or unlike the current track. The change is reflected immediately, so you can save a song and carry on without ever opening the Spotify tab.
