About Volume Control for Google Chrome™

Turn it up. Volume Control for Google Chrome™ boosts the sound of any browser tab far beyond the usual maximum — up to 600% — so quiet videos, soft podcasts, muffled meetings and low-recorded music finally come through loud and clear. No external apps, no system tweaks, no sign-up. Just click and listen. And with our biggest update ever, version 4 rebuilds the extension from the inside out to fix the things users asked for most. ★ THE BIG CHANGE: YOUR BOOST KEEPS PLAYING Previously you had to keep a little window open the whole time you wanted louder sound — close it, and the boost stopped. Not anymore. Version 4 moves all the audio processing into a lightweight background engine, so your boost keeps running even after you close the popup. Open the extension, set your level, close the popup, and keep browsing. The sound stays boosted until you change it or close the tab. This one change makes the extension feel the way it always should have. ★ IT REMEMBERS YOUR FAVORITE SITES Tired of setting the volume to the same level every single time? Version 4 now remembers your preferred boost for each website. Crank YouTube to 200% once, and the next time you open it, it is already there. Set a quieter level for your video calls, a louder one for that one streaming site that is always too soft — and the extension keeps each website right where you like it, automatically. ★ PRECISE, FLEXIBLE CONTROL We gave the controls a complete overhaul so you can dial in exactly the volume you want: - A smooth slider from 0% all the way to 600%. - One-click preset buttons (50%, 100%, 150%, 200%, 300%, 600%) for instant adjustments. - A precise number field — type an exact percentage and hit Apply. - A true Mute button that drops the tab to silence in one click, and back again just as fast. Whether you want a gentle nudge or a massive boost, it takes a second. ★ KEYBOARD SHORTCUTS Keep your hands on the keyboard. Version 4 adds shortcuts to raise and lower the volume of the current tab without even opening the popup (Ctrl+Shift+Up and Ctrl+Shift+Down by default, fully customizable in Chrome's shortcut settings). Perfect for quick tweaks while you watch, listen or work. ★ CONTROL EVERY TAB INDEPENDENTLY Each tab gets its own volume. Boost a quiet lecture in one tab while keeping music at a comfortable level in another. The toolbar icon shows a badge with the active boost level, so you can see at a glance which tabs are turned up. ★ A LIVE AUDIO VISUALIZER Watch your sound come alive. The built-in visualizer paints a colorful, real-time picture of the audio frequencies as they play — a small touch that makes it easy to confirm the boost is working and simply looks great while your music plays. ★ BOOST WITHOUT DISTORTION Our gain engine amplifies cleanly, lifting quiet audio — including bass — without the harsh clipping and saturation cheaper boosters introduce. You get more volume that still sounds like music, not noise. (As with any amplifier, very high levels on already-loud audio can distort — but you are always in control of how far to push it.) ★ PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your audio is your business. Volume Control collects no data, sells nothing to third parties, and uses no tracking. It requests only the minimal permissions it needs to capture and boost the tab you are actively using — nothing more. There are no accounts, no ads injected into your pages, and no hidden network calls. We worked hard in version 4 to keep this footprint as small as possible, because trust matters more than features. ★ FAST, RELIABLE, AND FREE Version 4 also brings a wave of reliability fixes under the hood: cleaner error handling when a page cannot be captured, proper cleanup when tabs close, and a more responsive interface. The extension is completely free, with no premium tiers and no paywalls. Every feature is available to everyone. ★ AVAILABLE IN 40+ LANGUAGES The interface is fully localized in more than 40 languages — and in this release we carefully rewrote the translations for accuracy, so the controls read naturally whether you use Chrome in English, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Russian, Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Arabic, Hindi and many more. HOW TO USE IT 1. Click the Volume Control icon in your toolbar. 2. Drag the slider, tap a preset, or type a percentage. 3. Close the popup — your boost keeps playing. That is it. Quiet tabs, solved. If Volume Control makes your day a little louder, please leave us a rating — it genuinely helps. Enjoy the sound! 100% Free sound booster software. No paid upgrades needed. Enjoy your music at maximum volume using our speaker booster extension. Disclaimer: Please note this extension is NOT made by Google and is made by an independent development team.
