Description from extension meta

Re-enables the "Mute Tab" feature once found in Chrome itself.

Image from store Tab Muter
Description from store Once upon a time, Chrome had a feature hidden away in chrome://flags to allow users to mute individual tabs by clicking the speaker icon next to the tab's title. This was deemed "not good enough", as the Chrome developers wanted to remove the need for users to manually control tab audio, so it was removed in favour of the "Mute Site" feature. Chrome can't yet automatically determine which tabs should be playing audio, so I made this extension to let the user make that decision. The button's in a different place due to Chrome API limitations, but apart from that, this extension should work exactly as the old "Mute Tab" feature did. Having trouble?

  • (2023-08-06) Thomas Turbide: Simple and efficient
  • (2023-03-08) kne2t3: It was working well for a while, but it's stop working consistently lately. The only way to fix it is to toggle the on/off on the extension.
  • (2023-03-01) Vitor Leão: Used for many years but noticed today that its no longer working.
  • (2023-02-24) Marcin Kunert: Works fine. Thanks! I use if for chrome remote desktop, without this i can hear myself and it's so annoying.
  • (2023-01-26) Priyam Shrivastav: works like a charm : D
  • (2023-01-17) yes hx: 好用
  • (2022-12-18) John Bond: I feel it is necessary to inform people that you need to pin the extension. This can be done by clicking on the puzzle piece icon in the upper right. Then scroll to Tab Muter and click on the pin to highlight it. Now you will have a speaker icon next to the extensions icon. (puzzle piece) Click on this on this speaker icon with the tab that you want muted open. I hope this helps.
  • (2022-11-13) Joe Mullen: removed it before i realized that I still had some tabs muted, so now they're stuck muted even after I reinstalled and tried to unmute :/ Worked, but worked a little too well in my case
  • (2022-11-06) Naysan Imani: i use scratch and it got really annoying when i wanted to hear one tab but heard the other too. Thank you!
  • (2022-11-04) Lady Bunnerkins: I absolutely adore this extension. In my opinion it is crucial to the way I choose to watch Twitch streams.
  • (2022-10-11) SilhyGames: It used to be good, but recently I've found that it seems to crash or break far too often, usually after extended use of the browser. Always requires the browser to be closed completely and reopened. I know it's probably minor, but I don't know, I just don't like my extensions having lifespans, I guess.
  • (2022-08-01) Fiona Marley: The plug-in keeps getting corrupted and crashing my browser. I have tried "repairing" it through Chrome's repair function, but it still is causing problems for me. It worked well when it worked, but unfortunately it's not working for me.
  • (2022-07-03) B DLo: works great when it works. consistently stops working forcing you to restart it or open a new browser window
  • (2022-06-17) erfto1: Thank you, works for great for me. I really needed this and your extension helped me much.
  • (2022-04-28) Jojileb Whitesmith: We all know why we need this hahaha! Now I can browse all pornsites in 1 tab.
  • (2022-04-27) Malus Mill: 20220427不能用了
  • (2022-04-18) first name last name: *As Apr 22*, the keyboard shortcut ctrl+m has stopped working. Any chance of enabling another one? A must have extension to use with Chrome since its update. I use it the other way round, I have all tabs and sites muted by Chrome and use the extension to unmute tabs.
  • (2022-04-14) Mr. S (PapaCozy): Really good add-on but lately has started suffering from an issue where it gets stuck on either sound on or muted and you have to restart the plug-in to make it work again. Happens at least once a day.
  • (2022-04-13) K. W: All was great until today 4/13/22. I could mute one tab at a time so I could decided which tabs I wanted to hear. Today it now has either full site is muted or not muted. I will have multiple of same site open. I.E. twitch. I do not always want to hear all the streamers I am listening to at once. The icon is shown either as slashed threw or not but that has no baring on if the tab is muted or not. i used to be able to click the icon. I am not sure if it is an update glitch and will eventually be fixed or is it just no longer useful for what I want to use it for anymore. I loved this feature until it stopped working properly.
  • (2022-03-28) Henrik Larsson: Super useful and yet simple extension.I am soooo grateful for you developing this excellent extension, THANKS!! Henrik
  • (2022-03-28) jordan: Really awesome little extension! I love using it on individual twitch tabs to lurk on streamers but also have the view count while watching another stream. 10/10 definitely recommend :)
  • (2022-02-24) It works but it's limited. tabs should start with sound disabled by default, but sound is enabled until you click the icon. No means to specify specific URLs for sound muting. Sill looking for a complete sound muting solution to combat the tyranny of user-hostile web-degelopers.
  • (2022-02-17) Binky Stalls: It works, but how about a keyboard shortcut?
  • (2021-11-17) Toni Calatrava: Best Extension Ever to Avoid Boring Meetings
  • (2021-10-16) Xavier Lim: Great app! May I know if there is a keyboard shortcut linked to the Mute Tab function? Would be quite handy too, thanks!
  • (2021-06-28) J Li: 有用 但是控制的是域 而不是单个标签 这个是chrome的锅 这个插件让这个右键选择项发挥作用了 很好了
  • (2021-06-10) TruthDr Dan: It makes my chrome keep auto muting all new tabs
  • (2021-06-06) かみかつき: It would be better if it can mute the background tabs.
  • (2021-05-24) Ana Cecília Reghini: It works well when I'm on the muted tab, but as soon as I switch to another tab, the other one is unmuted. I'd like to know if there is some way to solve this.
  • (2021-03-27) Jexx: works great! I use it so I can have it on while ignoring the lectures I have to watch for online school. I prefer just googling how to solve the problem cuz it's quicker
  • (2021-03-26) Aadhav JaiMurugesh: Amazing, works instantly, and amazingly!
  • (2021-03-20) Winged Hussar: Thanks, you should put a paypal in the description for donations
  • (2021-03-02) Roberto Seidenari: Come altre estensioni del genere, funziona malissimo con google meet. Se si aprono più stanze l'audio funziona in una sola di queste mentre le altre rimangono mute
  • (2021-02-26) Alec Centeno: Actually simple, Finally my teacher needed to shut up... thank you OP...
  • (2021-02-17) Milan s: it works!
  • (2020-12-07) Yuzuriha Inori: 谷歌浏览器去掉将标签页单独静音的选项真的有些不应该,这个插件真的好用,你还可以设置成用快捷键把单独的标签页给一键静音,给五星好评吧。 ,
  • (2020-11-27) ooO Andy: 特别好用!感谢开发者!
  • (2020-11-16) CZ Gator: Just installed this tab muter app after trying out two others for Chrome that were not only clunky to use, but quickly got corrupted with pop up adware that would hijack Google search. Really glad to find this one, as it is very simple to use, simply go to a tab you want to mute and click on the icon on the toolbar. Click again to restore sound. It's the closest thing to having the feature Chrome deleted. Thanks!
  • (2020-11-09) Hutan Baghery Moghaddam: Works, thanks!
  • (2020-11-06) Kamil Hermann: Works as expected(for now)
  • (2020-11-01) V: works great thank you.
  • (2020-10-26) David Watkins: Seems to automatically mute every tab now and requires me to click it to unmute, and when I removed it it still muted tabs. very nice
  • (2020-10-22) Perry Wong: 86版本能用,能一键单标签页静音,正是我需要的效果,好评!
  • (2020-10-15) Florian: It just works perfectly, exactly what I wanted!
  • (2020-10-09) Jesse Jude: This extension is super handy to have and I recommend it for anyone who wants to watch YouTube during class because it makes it so easy to listen to your teacher by muting a tab with YouTube and then unmuting it. Also, it is really good for muting game music without having to go into the settings and it also is good for muting ads. It is really easy to access if you pin it and I use it on a daily basis and I could not live without it (I mean I could but it would just be less convenient). P.s. it is great at trying to find out where an annoying sound is coming from like because you can just mute each tab and figure out your problem.
  • (2020-10-08) Leon Tang: 能用,有用,但是5分钟后会导致Chrome浏览器 崩溃,所以你懂的,谷歌也变得不人性化,奇怪。
  • (2020-09-20) Sunkara Srinivas: Thank you! Works great and no additional permissions required.
  • (2020-09-17) 密密: 2020 9 17 貌似不能用使用了 点图标没反应
  • (2020-09-14) Vinicius Viveiros: dont work
  • (2020-09-08) Marks Polakovs: Is gut ja
