Description
Control YouTube Music from a toolbar popup: playback, queue, albums, recommendations, history, search, playlists and synced lyrics. Companion for YouTube Music puts a full mini player in your toolbar, so you can control music.youtube.com without ever switching tabs. - Player: album art, per-artist links, play/pause, previous/next, like/dislike, shuffle, repeat, seek and volume - Home: YouTube Music's own recommendation shelves inside the popup - pick a song and it starts a radio from it - Queue: see what's coming with artwork, jump to any track, play next, add to queue, remove, drag to reorder; autoplay suggestions are labeled and toggleable - History: your real YouTube Music listening history, click to replay - Search: songs and videos - play them, queue them or start a radio from them - Playlists: browse your library, play any playlist, or add the current song to one - Lyrics: time-synced lyrics from LRCLIB with a live highlight; strictly opt-in and limited to official songs - Start a radio from any track row, anywhere in the popup - Row actions you can switch off in settings, so rows carry only what you use - Sleep timer with presets and custom minutes - Keyboard shortcuts you can rebind right in the popup - Dark, light or system theme with eight accent colors - or the dynamic accent that follows the album art - plus an optional accent-colored toolbar icon - Compact mode: collapse the popup to just the player card Privacy: no analytics, no tracking, no data collection. Everything runs against your open YouTube Music tab with your existing session. The only external request is the opt-in lyrics lookup, which sends the current track's title and artist to lrclib.net - nothing else, nowhere else.
