Skip Songs Without Leaving Your Work While living with dozens of tabs
Change tracks with a keystroke, not a window switch.
💡 Overview
A bad song at the wrong time is a small tax on concentration. The music tab drowns among them.
Next and previous track are bound to Shift+Alt+Right and Shift+Alt+Left by default. The extension passes the command to the Web Player in the background, so the song changes while your work window keeps focus. There is no flash of another tab and no lost cursor position.
