I would like to see the next/ back button and play/pause button on the small widget! Is this possible?

got it! but look at the size of the spotify icons

I have tested all the solutions according to the author's reply to you, but it still doesn't work, how did you solve it.

I still can't get it to update fast, but through the spotify API I made Play / Pause / Next / Previous work.

I have a couple of weeks modifying your code, to create my own version of the widget, but I would like to select 'play',pause','next','previous' as buttons with functions in the widget, only I don't know how to add them. I already add a function(play), but I don't know how to add more than one.
IMG_0709
I'll attach more screenshots and a video later so you can see the problem and if you like I can send you the code directly to see if you can make the addition of these.
By the way, I hope it wasn't wrong for me to take your code without asking to modify it.
Excuse my English, I speak Spanish, but I understand English a little bit.

How do you start the function „play“? So how do you add a button to a widget? Could you share your code so I can analyse it to maybe help?

Can you share that widget with the play and pause buttons?
Sorry to bother if you don't have these widgets now, but if you do can you share them?
Thanks in advance!
