Like Songs Without Opening Spotify While working in spreadsheets

A one-tap Liked Songs toggle that stays in sync.

💡 Overview

Good songs show up at inconvenient times. Leaving a spreadsheet to adjust volume interrupts a reconciliation in progress.

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.

The fix: Use the mouse wheel over the popup to nudge volume without touching the spreadsheet window.

🚀 Try It in Three Steps

  1. Hear a song you want to keep.
