MeetMute: Mute Mic for Google Meet – Auto-Mute, Shortcut & Push-to-Talk

Description

Mute & unmute Google Meet from any tab: floating mic + camera button, hotkey, auto-mute on join, push-to-talk & hot-mic alerts. MeetMute puts your Google Meet microphone and camera one click away on every tab. Mute or unmute, turn the camera off, stop sharing your screen or leave the call, without switching back to Meet. While you're on a call, a small floating button follows you around the browser, and the toolbar icon shows your mic status at a glance: green is live, red is muted, gray means idle. KEY FEATURES • Floating button everywhere: mic, camera, jump back, stop sharing and leave • Keyboard shortcut (hotkey): Ctrl+Space on Windows, Linux and ChromeOS, ⌥M (Option+M) on Mac; change it any time • Push-to-talk: hold the shortcut to talk, release to go quiet again • Join meetings muted: optional auto-mute and camera-off on join, without overriding a change you make yourself in the green room • Hot-mic alert: a notification with one-tap actions if you're left live after switching to another tab • Screen-share indicator: see at a glance that you're presenting, and stop sharing from anywhere • Toolbar panel: every action right from the MeetMute icon, even with the floating button off • Two calls at once: a warning when both are open, and MeetMute follows the one you're looking at • Your way: put it on any screen edge, show it only while you're live, hide it on chosen sites or turn it off, and pick sounds and notifications HOW TO USE 1.

PRIVACY MeetMute runs in your browser and only works with Google Meet pages to detect your call and mute state. It never records or sends your audio, video, chat or contacts. No ads. No analytics. No tracking. No accounts. If MeetMute itself hits an error, it sends an anonymous technical report (the error, the extension version and your browser language; never page URLs, meeting codes or names) so bugs get fixed. You can turn this off any time in MeetMute's settings, under Diagnostics. PERMISSIONS • meet.google.com access: follow the Meet page and press its own controls for you • All sites access (optional): show the floating button on other sites while you're in a meeting • Notifications: optional confirmations and the hot-mic alert • Storage: save your preferences on your device Works with personal Google accounts, Google Workspace and Workspace for Education.
