Features & Capabilities

App for Spotify™ is a lightweight and user-friendly Chrome extension that lets you play Spotify music directly from your desktop (PC, Mac, or Linux). It opens Spotify's music player in a standalone, resizable window that can stay always on top, enabling efficient multitasking without interrupting your workflow. Once closed, the app stops all background activities, ensuring minimal resource usage and no extra load on your browser.

Designed as an unofficial wrapper around the Spotify web player, this app requires a Spotify account and Flash plugin for full functionality. Featuring a simple toolbar with quick-access buttons, it aims to deliver an accessible and convenient music experience. Note that it is independently developed and not affiliated with Spotify.

User Reviews

Users appreciate that the App for Spotify™ offers a lightweight, standalone pop-out window for Spotify's web player, making it ideal for those avoiding the heavy desktop app. It is easy to use and functions smoothly within Firefox. However, several users find it redundant since it essentially just opens a Spotify tab, with some experiencing initial resource spikes. The add-on lacks the advanced features of a dedicated desktop player, limiting its appeal to those seeking extended Spotify functionalities.

Pros

Provides a clean, pop-out small Firefox window dedicated to Spotify's web version, making it feel like a standalone app.
Works easily and is straightforward to use.
Runs Spotify's web version flawlessly through Firefox without the heavy resource usage of the desktop app.
Preferred by users who want a lightweight alternative to the official Spotify desktop app.

Cons

Essentially just opens a new Firefox tab with Spotify's web player, leading some users to see it as redundant or useless.
Initial resource usage spikes reported, questioning the claim of being lightweight.
Lacks features of a full desktop player; limited to the web version without added functionalities.

Recent reviews

stranger195 wrote 8 years ago that there is no reason to use the app. As it reproduces everything which can be seen on open.spotify.com i dont get, if it is really light weight. I also had a spike in ressource usage in the beginning of the usage: this is also indicating that it isnt "lite"

Is App for Spotify™ Safe?

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

App for Spotify™ requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
