Web Player

Wrapper window for Spotify's web-player with easy access toggle, next and previous buttons

What is Web Player?
Web Player is a Firefox add-on that provides a functional and intuitive interface for Spotify's official web player. Absorbed within a sandboxed window, this add-on can simultaneously act as an independent app when your OS doesn’t support the desktop version, or when you don’t have the necessary permissions for a desktop installation. With a single toolbar button, the user can easily play/pause, or switch songs. The user interface of the Web Player is developed and maintained by the Spotify team, ensuring a seamless music-experience.
