One-Handed Spotify Control for Presenters
Shortcut profiles including a WASD-style one-handed layout.
💡 Overview
Sometimes one hand is busy. Slides, speaker notes and rehearsal recordings overlap.
Beyond the default Shift+Alt+arrow set, the dashboard offers shortcut profiles: Standard, a one-handed WASD set using Alt+Shift with W, S, A and D, a compact Alt+arrows set and a function-key set using Ctrl with F6 to F9. Pick whichever matches the hand that is free.
