The popular internet radio app, iHeartRadio, makes music listening a lot easier today with the help of a new Google Chrome extension. Listeners can now control their music without needing to leave their current screen.
Once installed, you will be able to click the extension in the Google Chrome toolbar to pop out a web app in order to control your music. The extension will allow users to skip, thumbs up/down, favorites, scan and shows what’s playing in a compact widget. You can also move the widget around to place it anywhere you want on the screen.
A neat feature of the new extension is the snooze or “Zzz” feature. It allows you to pause your station for a few minutes so you can go do something else quickly, but will resume playing a few minutes later.
A little bonus info about this extension is Eric Cogan, iHeartRadio’s Associate Product Manager for Android, designed the extension during Hack Week. The extension later ended up winning first place.
