About Mute Tab
Control noisy tabs from one toolbar popup. Mute Tab combines tab audio controls, per-domain auto-mute rules, context-menu actions, and keyboard shortcuts.
One click to mute or unmute any tab. Open the toolbar popup and you see exactly the tabs that matter: the ones making noise and the ones you have already muted, each with a switch. No hunting through forty tabs for the one that started autoplaying an ad.
Set it and forget it. Add a domain to your auto-mute list and every tab that ever loads it opens silent. News sites with autoplay video, that one forum, a streaming page you keep in the background. Subdomains are covered automatically.
Built for speed:
- One-click mute/unmute from the popup
- Auto-mute rules per domain, including subdomains
- Right-click any page: mute this tab, mute all other tabs, unmute all, or "always mute this site"
- Keyboard shortcuts (mute the current tab, mute everything else, unmute all)
- Mute all / Unmute all in one tap
- A toolbar badge that counts your muted tabs
Private by design. Mute Tab makes no network requests and collects no data. It never reads the content of your pages. Your auto-mute list and badge preference use Chrome's built-in synced storage, which can sync settings between your signed-in browsers. The developer cannot access them.
No account, no sign-in, no tracking. Install it and it works.
