About this extension
Companion for YouTube Music puts a full mini player in your toolbar, so you
can control music.youtube.com without ever switching tabs.
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.
Open source under GPL-3.0:

- 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
