YouTube Music Everywhere is a free browser extension that turns YouTube Music into a persistent companion instead of just another tab you keep switching back to.
If you usually keep a YouTube Music tab open just to pause, skip, or adjust the volume, this extension fixes that by giving you four different ways to keep your music visible while you work, browse, or read:
- Side Panel — pinned to the edge of your browser, always within reach
- Popup window — a small floating player for quick controls
- New tab — a dedicated, distraction-free music tab
- Standalone window — a separate window that remembers its size and position
How it works:
- Click the toolbar icon, or press Ctrl+Shift+M (Cmd+Shift+M on Mac)
- Choose your favorite mode from the options page
- Sign in with your Google account once — the extension keeps you signed in
The interface is translated into more than 50 languages, and the extension only communicates directly with YouTube Music's own servers. There are no third-party trackers, analytics, or middle-man services.
Built on the latest Chrome Manifest V3 platform, YouTube Music Everywhere is lightweight, free, and designed for people who want their music close at hand without losing focus on their work.
1. Open the Chrome Web Store page and click "Add to Chrome".
2. Confirm the installation by clicking "Add extension" in the popup.
3. Click the YouTube Music Everywhere icon in your toolbar, or press Ctrl+Shift+M (Cmd+Shift+M on Mac).
4. Pick your favorite mode (Side Panel, Popup, New Tab, or Standalone Window) from the options page.
5. Sign in with your Google account and start listening.
