Spotify Sleep Timer for Chromebook Users
Quick timers for 15, 30, 45 or 60 minutes with a live countdown.
💡 Overview
Some music is meant to end on its own. Chrome is your whole operating system, so extensions are first-class.
The smart background sleep timer offers quick presets of 15, 30, 45 and 60 minutes. A live countdown badge shows time remaining, and the timer runs on background alarms, so it keeps counting after you close the popup. When time is up, playback pauses automatically.
