  • (2023-10-12) Niels Butter: Fixed my problem with my Jabra Elite headphones muting for no reason in Google Meet. Awesome!!
  • (2023-09-05) Vasu Patel: The functionality of the plugin is working fine but it is taking control of google and manipulating the google results!
  • (2023-08-28) Maxwell Souza (maxjf1): The fact that this extension is needed shows that this gain control isn't a feature, its a bug, chrome should remove this But the extension is great! Sad that i need to authorize on every website i use (would be great to have it enable on all websites by default), but since its not every website that i use Mic it's ok
  • (2023-08-28) Marko Kraljevic: Better avoid it, it prevented me to enter MS Teams call and I was 15 minutes late until I figured out to disable it, it does more harm than good.
  • (2023-08-23) Yevgen Antymyrov: Helps me with Preply.com I wish it was also available for Edge
  • (2023-07-19) D Del Vento: Without this extension, the skype web app is totally unusable. With it, it becomes flawless. Do yourself a favor and install this app. Huge thanks to the developer!!!!!!
  • (2023-07-12) Принёс_MP5_в_Школу: вк помойка санная, расширение топ 💪

  • (2023-04-11) Mert Türker: It's working!
  • (2023-03-30) Alejandro Coronel: GRACIAS! me estaba volviendo loco eso de que chrome cambie la sensibilidad de mi micrófono
  • (2023-03-27) Igor Kozarchuk: For some reason it doesn't work if you open another Chrome instance with another account (although this extension is installed on another account too). Or if you open Google Meet in Edge (with this extension enabled there as well).

  • (2023-02-25) MouMou (Alkaid): Useful and it just works
  • (2023-02-06) David McAnulty: Works! But if you can't install the extension for some reason, give this a try. type "chrome://flags/" into your Chrome Search for "microphone" On the "Allow WebRTC to adjust the input volume" select the default dropdown and change to disable.
  • (2023-02-03) Sergey Davydov: God bless you!
  • (2023-01-25) Samuel Corbin: When it works, it is fantastic. But if frequently fails to prevent the adjustment.

  • (2022-10-11) Jacktus Trends: Because of this extensions there is some disturbance on the call. I work as customer support representative, Their voice and my voice keep breaking up. Once i disable for a while. It fixes the issue. But it works so well "microphone levels auto adjusting". I wish it wasn't cause the disturbance.

  • (2022-08-11) José Vinícius: Solved my problem!
  • (2022-07-13) ImDaGawd: selfless work from hero's like you literally shouldn't be given out for free i commend you for doing what google cant be asked to allow us to do easily
  • (2022-07-05) Brett Randall: Fixes MacOS auto mic gain control bugs like-a-boss!
  • (2022-06-08) Ash: I realize this is just for Google Meets - is there anyway you have another plugin that might work for other third party softwares like this? My call center uses ServiceTitan and it keeps changing my gain :( this plugin doesn't seem to work for it
  • (2022-06-02) Jeroen Boersma: We have bought good microphones with which should filter surrounding sounds and still ran into the problem of hearing everyone in Chrome based browsers, finally found this extension which is a clear lifesaver, thanks!
  • (2022-03-17) Franz Ardito: Worked flawlessly until today: I was asked to provide permissions, allowed mic, but the extension doesn't turn on anymore. Hopefully it can be fixed.
  • (2022-03-16) Tiago Xavi: For some reason its stopped to work in google meet for me

  • (2022-02-23) Холод 'ОК: Чудесно, просто прекрасно теперь, дурацкий VK больше не меняет громкость вниз верх, 5+ расширению!
  • (2022-02-07) Carlos Guzman Morales: It is great, the only problem is I have to turn it on and give permissions every time i enter a Bigbluebutton conference for university, I think this is because their urls work like this: https://xxxxxxx.xxxxxxxx.blindsidenetworks.com/ where the X spaces always change. If that was fixed it would be perfect.
  • (2022-02-02) Victor M.: Oh my god I love you
  • (2022-01-31) Semin S.: This ist awesome! Very esasy to use and fast installed. Happy to finally dont have gain issues. Thank you
  • (2022-01-24) Maxime C.: Unfortunately it's not working for me for 2 reasons: 1) I'm using Loom extension to record videos/audio on Chrome, and when the Disable Automatic Gain Control is on or off, it doesn't change a thing, I can still see my mic gain change in windows sound settings. 2) I would also need to be able to switch this app on/off for every website at once, and not every time I need to record a new video (in my use case, I record videos on different websites everyday, so it's a little annoying). For now, I will keep using Voicemeter software, which does the job very well, but it has some minor downsides too when managing sound level, which is why I would have love this extension to work. I hope this comment will help to improve the extension, I'll change my rating if it's fixed in the future.
  • (2022-01-15) Jimmy W: This plugin is awesome! Tested it out: Plugin is off: volume goes all over the place (I can see it moving on the sound panel) Plugin is ON: volume stays the same. Absolutely awesome, cheers!!
  • (2022-01-13) Michał Matyas: Ever since I updated to Mac OS Monterey, Google Meet kept reducing the microphone volume until I was muted. It was extremely frustrating since I had to adjust manually the volume on every call and kept an eye on it or it would randomly cut me off. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS EXTENSION
  • (2022-01-11) Sarfaraz Ahmad: HELL YEAH!!! It works and it is versatile...
  • (2022-01-10) Clarz: for some reason its still increasing my microphone level in messenger
  • (2021-12-28) A Doorknob: IT WORKS!!! I have a very sensitive mic and every time I raised my voice the AGC would go overboard, now it never happens.
