In the dock as “Preview”

Mute your microphone everywhere, with one shortcut

One big button, or one global shortcut, mutes your default microphone in Windows, so “every app hears silence”. The notch shows whether you are live or muted.

One-time purchase. A license key unlocks every tool, and there is no free trial.

What it does

  • Mute in Windows itself
    It mutes your default microphone at the system level, so it works in every app. If no microphone is plugged in, it says “No microphone”.
  • Push to talk
    On by default. While muted, hold the shortcut to talk; a quick tap just toggles.
  • You always know
    The notch shows whether your microphone is live or muted, either always (the default) or only when muted.
  • A dot when another app listens
    A green dot on the notch shows while another app is using your camera or microphone. It reads Windows' own privacy records and does not poll.
  • Camera mirror
    Start preview to check framing and lighting. “Only you see this. Nothing is recorded.”

Shortcuts

They work in any app. Change any of them in Settings > Shortcuts.

  • Mute or unmute (hold while muted for push to talk)

Good to know

Limits and defaults, stated plainly.

  • The tab is labelled Preview in the dock.
  • Voice memos refuse to record while your microphone is muted, and tell you why.
  • If you choose “Hide the notch” (a thin line instead), nothing is shown on it, including the microphone state.
