Spotify Focus Analytics for Journaling Fans

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. Quiet reflection is the point, with soft background music at most.

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.

Quiet reflection is the point, with soft background music at most.

The fix: Set a calm playlist, then control it only with one key.

🚀 Try It in Three Steps

  1. Open the dashboard from the extension.
  2. Check the focus counter and the seven-day chart.
  3. Use the top artists and tracks lists to find your best focus music.
