Spotify Plus

spotify-plus is a Spicetify extension focused on cleaning up Spotify’s UI, making playlist actions more usable, and adding a few quality-of-life tools that Spotify does not expose cleanly by default.

What It Does

Settings And Entry Points

• Adds a Spotify+ entry to Spotify’s profile menu.
• Opens a custom Spotify+ Settings panel inside Spotify.
• Stores all settings in Spicetify.LocalStorage.

Profile Menu Cleanup

• Hide Your Updates.
• Hide Home config.
• Hide Account.
• Hide Profile.
• Hide Support.
• Hide Private Session.
• Hide Log out.

Player Cleanup And Tools

• Hide the Friend Activity button.
• Hide the Lyrics button.
• Hide the Miniplayer button.
• Restore the old compact Connect to a device picker instead of Spotify’s newer sidebar version.
• Reload Spotify with F5.
• Break into devtools with F8.
• Best-effort devtools opening on startup when Spotify exposes a working API.
• Restore the previous Spotify route across launches.
• Show an in-app update prompt when a newer GitHub release is available.
  • includes a platform-appropriate install/update command
  • lets you copy the command, open the release, or skip that version

Add To Playlist Override

• Replaces Spotify’s unstable folder-hover behavior for Add to playlist.
• Lets you refresh and cache playlist folders from your library.
• Lets you select multiple folders to expose in the generated menu.
• Uses each selected folder independently.
  • Selecting a parent folder only shows playlists directly inside that folder.
  • Nested subfolders only contribute if they are explicitly selected too.
• Adds selected tracks directly through Spotify’s playlist API when possible.
• Skips tracks that already exist in the target playlist.
• Closes the menu immediately when a playlist is clicked.
• Filters out non-addable and generated playlists such as:
  • daylist
  • Discover Weekly
  • DJ
  • On Repeat
  • other Made for you / non-editable playlist rows when Spotify metadata exposes them

Copy Context Menu

• Adds a Copy submenu for single-track context menus.
• Adds a Copy IDs action for multi-select track context menus.
• Copy Song & Artist Name
  • copies Song - Artist
• Copy ID
  • copies a single track id
• Copy IDs
  • copies selected track ids as id1, id2, id3
• Reorders the copy entry to sit above Spotify’s Share item.

Experimental Features Modal Redesign

• Restyles Spotify’s Experimental features modal with a cleaner custom layout.
• Moves the search field into the modal header.
• Adds local search/filtering for the feature rows.

Install

One-Line PowerShell Install

Run this in PowerShell:

irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/iPixelGalaxy/spotify-plus/master/install.ps1 | iex

One-Line macOS / Linux Install

Run this in a shell:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/iPixelGalaxy/spotify-plus/master/install.sh | bash

⚠️ PowerShell Install Warning

spotify-plus enables a few persistent client behaviors that uninstalling the extension will not automatically undo:

• developer tools can remain enabled in Spotify (Note: messing around with the toggle to run dev-tools on start may be required)
• F5 reload behavior can remain available (honestly, this is just useful)
• last-view route memory can persist across Spotify restarts (allegedly a native spotify feature, I've never seen this behave consistently)

To fully clear the related Spotify/XPUI client state, fully close Spotify and run:

(Get-Content "$env:APPDATA\Spotify\prefs") `
  -replace '(?m)^app\.enable-developer-mode=.*$', 'app.enable-developer-mode=false' `
  | Set-Content "$env:APPDATA\Spotify\prefs"

Remove-Item -Recurse -Force "$env:LOCALAPPDATA\Spotify\Default\Sessions" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
Remove-Item -Recurse -Force "$env:LOCALAPPDATA\Spotify\Default\Session Storage" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue

This clears Spotify’s persisted XPUI/session state and can reset client preferences and session-related UI state (Including all user setting and plugin configs).

The installers will:

• install Spicetify if it is missing
• download the latest spotify-plus.js release asset
• place it in your Spicetify Extensions folder
• add it to your Spicetify config
• enable Spotify developer tools
• run spicetify backup apply
• run spicetify apply

Uninstall

PowerShell:

irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/iPixelGalaxy/spotify-plus/master/uninstall.ps1 | iex

macOS / Linux:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/iPixelGalaxy/spotify-plus/master/uninstall.sh | bash

The uninstall scripts:

• remove the extension from Spicetify config
• delete the installed extension file
• apply the updated Spicetify config
• optionally ask ⚠️ Clear All User Settings?
  • default is No
  • if confirmed, resets developer mode and clears Spotify session / XPUI-style state

Manual Install

1. Install Spicetify.
2. Build this repo:

npm ci
npm run build

3. Copy dist/spotify-plus.js into your Spicetify extensions folder.
4. Enable it:

spicetify config extensions spotify-plus.js
spicetify backup apply

Development

npm ci
npm run dev

Useful scripts:

• npm run build
• npm run lint
• npm run fmt

Release

This repo includes a manual GitHub Actions workflow at .github/workflows/release.yml.

It:

• installs dependencies
• builds the extension
• packages release assets
• publishes a manual GitHub release with:
  • spotify-plus.js
  • a versioned zip bundle
  • install / uninstall scripts for Windows, macOS, and Linux

⚠️ Release Warning

Release builds have the same persistence caveat as the PowerShell installer:

• uninstalling the extension does not automatically disable Spotify developer tools again
• uninstalling does not automatically clear the remembered last-view route
• uninstalling does not automatically revert any XPUI/session storage state created while using the extension

If you need to fully reset that client state, close Spotify and run:

(Get-Content "$env:APPDATA\Spotify\prefs") `
  -replace '(?m)^app\.enable-developer-mode=.*$', 'app.enable-developer-mode=false' `
  | Set-Content "$env:APPDATA\Spotify\prefs"

Remove-Item -Recurse -Force "$env:LOCALAPPDATA\Spotify\Default\Sessions" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
Remove-Item -Recurse -Force "$env:LOCALAPPDATA\Spotify\Default\Session Storage" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue

That reset can also clear Spotify client preferences and session/UI state.

Notes

• The PowerShell installer expects this repo to be published at iPixelGalaxy/spotify-plus.
• If you fork or rename the repo, update the constants at the top of install.ps1.
• If you fork or rename the repo, also update install.sh, uninstall.ps1, uninstall.sh, and src/features/updatePrompt.ts.
