A “You're muted” reminder for every call app

Zoom warns you when you talk while muted. Most other apps don't, and web calls almost never do. You explain something for a minute, then notice everyone waiting.

Muffle watches for speech while you're muted and shows a reminder, in any app. When the call uses AirPods or a headset, it listens to your Mac's own mic, and only to its loudness. Nothing is recorded.

Questions

Does the reminder work with the Mac's built-in mic?

It works when the call uses AirPods or a headset. If the call uses the Mac's own mic, that mic is muted and can't hear you.

Is my audio recorded?

No. Muffle only measures loudness and never keeps or sends any audio.
