Always Show Media Overlay

My Question or Issue

Is there any way to get the media overlay in the top left corner to always show, or a good hotkey to show it without changing anything about the way that the music plays (i.e. skipping song, changing volume, etc). Sometimes I just want to check the song without switching to a new window.

Hi @Eolian,

Thanks for posting in the Spotify Community!

 

I tried looking around and unfortunately I couldn't find a way to keep that on the screen, however, in Settings > Ease of Access > Other Options, changing the setting 'Show notifications for' will change how long the media overlay stays on your screen for.

 

I would also recommend downloading Rainmeter and playing around with the many different media players that people have made.

 

Don't hesitate to reply if you need anything else!
