FAQ

Questions before you try it?

Absolutely. This is exactly what QuietMic was built for. Most people don't realize how loud they get when focused or excited on a call. QuietMic monitors your mic in real time and gives you a quiet visual nudge when your voice spikes, so you can bring it back down before anyone says anything.
That's QuietMic. It lives in your Mac menu bar and monitors your microphone volume during any call, whether it's Zoom, Google Meet, Teams or Slack. When your voice gets too loud, it gives you a gentle visual alert. No sounds, no interruptions, just a discreet reminder only you can see.
Yes, and this is one of the most common reasons people use QuietMic. When you're wearing headphones, you lose the natural feedback of hearing your own voice. QuietMic fills that gap by showing your mic level in real time, so you always know where you stand.
No. QuietMic is designed to monitor microphone input level, not record or understand your conversations. Your audio never leaves your Mac.
Yes. QuietMic monitors your selected Mac microphone independently from your meeting app. It works with any app that uses your Mac's audio input: Zoom, Google Meet, Teams, Slack, and more.
No. QuietMic is not a certified sound level meter. It is a practical voice awareness tool for calls, designed to give you a simple, private signal when your voice gets louder than usual.
No. You can download and use QuietMic completely free for 30 days without entering a credit card. Only choose a plan if you decide to keep it after the trial.
The app stops working and shows an upgrade screen. You can then choose the Annual plan (US$15/year) or Lifetime access (US$45 one-time). If you need a little more time, you can request one extra 7-day extension.
Yes. QuietMic lets you define the threshold level that feels right for your voice and environment. Whether you speak softly or naturally loud, you can tune the alert to match.
No. QuietMic only reads your microphone level. It does not modify, filter or intercept your audio. Your voice reaches Zoom, Meet or Teams exactly as it normally would.
Yes. QuietMic works with any microphone that macOS recognizes: built-in mic, USB headsets, XLR interfaces or AirPods. Just select your device in the app settings.
Yes. QuietMic lives in your menu bar and can be set to start at login, so it is always monitoring without you needing to open anything.
For now, yes. QuietMic is macOS only. Windows and Linux versions are in the works and coming soon. iOS is not on the roadmap yet, but we will get there. If you are on Windows or Linux, join the waitlist and we will be the first to let you know when it is ready.
