My Mac Apps » MicMüter

Summary

MicMüter is a simple app that runs in your menu bar that lets you toggle your Mac’s built-in microphone on and off — effectively making it a microphone kill switch. In a world where many of us spend much of our time video conferencing, this can be really useful if you need to mute yourself quickly.

• Optionally mute your Mac's microphone using a movable, on-screen control
• Optionally set the microphone input level to ensure it remains constant
• Choose to automatically start the app whenever your Mac boots up
• A fully signed and notarized native application
• Fast and compact; no 30+ MB application baggage
• Universal binary: runs on both Intel and Apple Silicon CPUs
• It’s free. Similar tools cost money!
