Spotify Focus Analytics for Windows Users

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. Windows lets you set Chrome extension shortcuts to Global scope.

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.
