Spotify Focus Analytics for PC Gamers
Local listening and focus time insights that never leave your device.
💡 Overview
If music is part of how you focus, it helps to see the pattern. Full-screen games own the screen, and alt-tabbing out can mean a lag spike, a minimized client, or a lost match.
The dashboard shows a focus time counter for daily and weekly listening, a seven-day activity chart and leaderboards for top artists and tracks. The extension states that this data is stored in local browser storage with no external trackers, and that nothing is logged in Incognito mode.
🧭 A Day of PC Gamers
Full-screen games own the screen, and alt-tabbing out can mean a lag spike, a minimized client, or a lost match.
The problem: Skipping a track you dislike used to mean leaving the game window entirely.
The fix: Set the shortcut scope to Global in chrome://extensions/shortcuts so the keys work while the game has focus.
🚀 Try It in Three Steps
- Open the dashboard from the extension.
- Check the focus counter and the seven-day chart.
- Use the top artists and tracks lists to find your best focus music.
✨ What You Get
- Zero-polling design: A MutationObserver updates the UI only when the page changes, keeping CPU and memory use low.
- Playback speed 0.5x to 2.0x: Presets at 1.0x, 1.25x, 1.5x and 2.0x, locked across track changes.
- Device quick-switcher: One click to the Spotify Connect device drawer from the mini-player header.
