  • (2025-07-12) Doug Daugherty: I love this extension but today I just got a message in Chrome saying it is no longer supported and is turned off. I can't turn it back on. Joey Watts please please please update this extension so that it conforms to Google standards or whatever so this fantastic extension will be re-enabled.
  • (2025-06-12) W.O.L.F: When i was talking, my microphone was almost muting itself system-wide, now, thank to this amazing extension, it's now fixed ! Thank you very much ! It was so annoying, and it fixed my issue so i can talk again ! Auto gain control really need to be improved, and at least doesn't act system-wide, when i was talking a bit my microphone was decreasing it's volume from 100% to 26%, and almost nothing is able to hear me correctly at 26%, really, thank you !

  • (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.
