Simple Spotify Controller
by CattoYT
Simple Spotify Controller lets players control the Spotify app from inside Minecraft, without switching windows.
What it does
The mod is a lightweight utility for Fabric that gives players a simple way to control Spotify playback while staying in the game. Only the client needs it, so servers and other players do not have to install anything. Spotify Premium is required to use the controls, and the mod depends on Fabric API and Fabric Language Kotlin. Its only published build is 1.0.0+mc1.21.1 for 1.21.1, released 2025-02-01, under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, and the source code is public.
