Spotify Sleep Timer for Dual-Monitor Power Users
Quick timers for 15, 30, 45 or 60 minutes with a live countdown.
💡 Overview
Some music is meant to end on its own. Two screens still run out of room for a music window.
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.
🧭 A Day of Dual-Monitor Power Users
Two screens still run out of room for a music window.
The problem: Tab-switching on one screen can reorder your whole layout.
The fix: Keep the Web Player on the second monitor and control it from either screen.
🚀 Try It in Three Steps
- Open the popup and choose a sleep timer preset.
- Watch the countdown badge for the time remaining.
- Let playback pause itself when the timer ends.
✨ 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.
- Zero-polling design: A MutationObserver updates the UI only when the page changes, keeping CPU and memory use low.
- Floating mini-player: Popup with play, pause, next, previous, shuffle, repeat, seek and a Liked Songs toggle.
