Privacy-First Spotify Controller for Dropshippers
No credentials, no browsing history, and local-only analytics.
💡 Overview
People who care about focus tend to care about privacy too. Supplier chats, order pages and ad dashboards stay open.
Spotify-Web Playback Controller states that it collects no Spotify credentials, passwords or personal information, and does not request access to browsing history. Its host permission covers only open.spotify.com. Focus insights are stored on your own device, and it does not log tracks or listening stats in Incognito mode. Optional anonymous diagnostics have their own toggle.
🧭 A Day of Dropshippers
Supplier chats, order pages and ad dashboards stay open.
The problem: Switching windows to manage music costs time across hundreds of orders.
The fix: Use the next-track shortcut between order batches instead of leaving your dashboard.
🚀 Try It in Three Steps
- Read the permissions on the Chrome Web Store page before installing.
- Review the privacy policy linked from the listing.
- Turn off optional diagnostics in the dashboard if you prefer.
✨ What You Get
- Sleep timer: Presets of 15, 30, 45 and 60 minutes with a live countdown that auto-pauses playback.
- Local focus analytics: Daily and weekly focus time, a seven-day chart and top artists and tracks, all stored on your device.
- Zero-polling design: A MutationObserver updates the UI only when the page changes, keeping CPU and memory use low.
