Privacy-First Spotify Controller for E-commerce Sellers
No credentials, no browsing history, and local-only analytics.
💡 Overview
People who care about focus tend to care about privacy too. Orders, inventory and ads need constant checking.
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 E-commerce Sellers
Orders, inventory and ads need constant checking.
The problem: A ping in the order queue shouldn't require finding a music tab.
The fix: Keep one-key pause available so you can answer a customer call without scrambling.
🚀 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.
