Meeting Mic Monitor is a Chrome extension designed to enhance your experience during virtual meetings on platforms like Google Meet and Zoom. This tool provides a visual indicator of your mute status through colored borders around your screen, ensuring you are aware of whether your microphone is active or muted. It operates by detecting the mute state from the respective web clients and communicates this information to a companion desktop application on macOS.

The extension is straightforward to install and requires a one-time setup of the Meeting Mic Monitor desktop app. It is designed specifically for users who may find it difficult to keep track of their mute status, especially when using multiple monitors. Importantly, all operations are local, meaning no data is transmitted over the internet, ensuring privacy and security.
