Seeking Controls

Customize your fast-forward and rewind behavior with configurable seek durations.

Chorus adds seek controls to the Spotify player that let you jump forward or backward by a configurable number of seconds.

Seek durations can be configured differently based on content type:

Content TypeDescription
General (G)Music tracks — typically shorter seek intervals
Podcasts (P)Podcast episodes — usually 15-30 second intervals
Audiobooks (A)Audiobook chapters — customizable to your preference

Set your own seek duration for each content type. For example:

  • 5 seconds for music (skip an intro)
  • 30 seconds for podcasts (skip ads)
  • 15 seconds for audiobooks (rewind to catch something)

Both seek forward and seek backward are available as keyboard shortcuts. See Keyboard Shortcuts for details.
