## Description

By the restriction of Spotify, this add-on only works with Spotify premium account.

Spotify has a really cool feature called <strong>Spotify Connect</strong>. Basically it could turn anything into a Spotify player, and control it with your cellphone. I made this app trying to connect Spotify with Firefox. So why use this player instead of Spotify website?
<ol><li>Play in background of Firefox, no need to keep Spotify's tab open;</li><li>Keyboard shortcut to play/stop/next/previous/save;</li><li>Transfer playback to this player seamlessly with just one click.</li></ol>
After install it from the web store, use it in the following steps:
<ol><li><strong>Authorize</strong> on Spotify;</li><li>Enable <strong>autoplay</strong> permission;</li><li>Choose music on Spotify and play it on <strong>"Spotify on Firefox"</strong>. If you have a premium account on Spotify, you can seamlessly transfer your playback to this player, with just one click on the play button.</li></ol>
Besides, it's open source!
