Customization

Spicetify lets you customize Spotify in three ways:

Type	What it does
Themes	Change colors, fonts, and visual styling
Extensions	Add new features and functionality
Custom Apps	Add entirely new pages to the sidebar

Marketplace vs Manual Installation

There are two ways to install customizations:

Marketplace (Recommended)

The Spicetify Marketplace is a built-in browser that lets you discover, install, and manage themes, extensions, and snippets directly from Spotify's sidebar.

If you followed the Getting Started guide, you already have Marketplace installed.

Use Marketplace when:

• You want a simple, visual way to browse and install customizations
• You prefer one-click installation
• You want automatic updates

Manual Installation

Manual installation gives you direct control over your Spicetify configuration.

Use manual installation when:

• The theme/extension isn't available in Marketplace
• You're developing your own customizations
• You want to use built-in extensions that ship with Spicetify
• You need precise control over what's installed

Each customization page in this section covers both Marketplace usage and manual installation.

Configuration

All manual customizations are controlled through:

• CLI commands: spicetify config <key> <value> followed by spicetify apply
• Config file: Direct editing of config-xpui.ini

See the Configuration Reference for details on the config file and all available options.
