Spotify Connect Device Switcher for University Students

💡 Overview

Sometimes the right speaker is not the one in front of you. A study block is a fragile thing: notes, a PDF, a timer and a playlist all compete for attention.

The mini-player header includes a one-click trigger for the device drawer, which lets you switch playback between the Web Player, desktop, smart speakers and phone. You can move music to another room without opening the Spotify tab.

🧭 A Day of University Students

A study block is a fragile thing: notes, a PDF, a timer and a playlist all compete for attention.

The problem: Opening Spotify to fix the volume often turns into five minutes of browsing playlists instead.

The fix: Keep the Web Player in one pinned tab and never open it again; control it from the mini-player or hotkeys.

🚀 Try It in Three Steps

1. Open the popup and use the device icon in the header.
2. Pick a device from the drawer.
3. Return to the Web Player the same way.

✨ What You Get

• Zero-polling design: A MutationObserver updates the UI only when the page changes, keeping CPU and memory use low.
• Shortcut profiles: Standard, one-handed WASD, compact Alt+arrows and function-key presets.
• Mouse-wheel volume: Scroll over the player for fine volume steps, plus one-tap mute memory.

Note: it works with the Spotify Web Player at open.spotify.com only, and does not control the desktop app.
