Spotify Focus Analytics for Academic Researchers

💡 Overview

If music is part of how you focus, it helps to see the pattern. You juggle papers, citation tools and notes across dozens of tabs.

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 Academic Researchers

You juggle papers, citation tools and notes across dozens of tabs.

The problem: A hidden Spotify tab among thirty others is easy to lose.

The fix: Use the popup instead of searching for the tab; it controls the Web Player wherever it is hiding.

🚀 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.

✨ What You Get

• Local focus analytics: Daily and weekly focus time, a seven-day chart and top artists and tracks, all stored on your device.
• Shortcut profiles: Standard, one-handed WASD, compact Alt+arrows and function-key presets.
• Four default hotkeys: Shift+Alt+Up toggles play and pause, Right skips, Left goes back and Down pauses only.

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