Script description

Paste the script as a new script and configure it under Apps (gear icon).

  • HA URL: Your Home Assistant address with port, preferably the IP (e.g. http://192.168.1.50:8123). *.local often fails on the device.
  • Entity: Your Spotify media player entity (e.g. media_player.spotify_yourname).
  • HA Token: Create a long-lived access token in HA → Profile → Security and paste it here.
  • Icon ID: Go to Icons, add 18207 (or any icon you prefer). If the icon is missing, the app still shows the text full-width.
  • Refresh / Scroll % (optional): How often to poll HA, and scroll speed for long titles.

The app only appears in the rotation while Spotify is playing, paused, or buffering; it is skipped when idle / off.
