Spotify Sleep Timer for Remote Workers

💡 Overview

Some music is meant to end on its own. Your day is video calls, chat and documents in one browser, with music filling the gaps between them.

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 Remote Workers

Your day is video calls, chat and documents in one browser, with music filling the gaps between them.

The problem: When a call starts, finding the music tab to pause it is the awkward first ten seconds.

The fix: Learn the pause-only shortcut so you can silence music the instant a call connects.

🚀 Try It in Three Steps

1. Open the popup and choose a sleep timer preset.
2. Watch the countdown badge for the time remaining.
3. Let playback pause itself when the timer ends.

✨ What You Get

• Dynamic album-art backdrops: A blurred, color-adaptive background drawn from the current artwork, in dark or light theme.
• Floating mini-player: Popup with play, pause, next, previous, shuffle, repeat, seek and a Liked Songs toggle.
• Zero-polling design: A MutationObserver updates the UI only when the page changes, keeping CPU and memory use low.

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