Open Spotify Desktop App

Automatically opens the Desktop Spotify app for open.spotify.com links.

Open Spotify Desktop App - A Convenient Chrome Extension

'Open Spotify Desktop App' is a Chrome extension designed to provide ease to Spotify users. It performs the simple, yet crucial, function of automatically launching the Spotify desktop app each time a Spotify link is clicked on your computer. Without this extension, navigating to Spotify's website and manually opening the app is necessary -- a process this extension efficiently eliminates. This adds to user convenience and a smoother music streaming experience.
