About this extension
Mute Tab Manager gives you fast, reliable tab muting with first-class YouTube support.
Features
Real YouTube Support
Standard browser muting doesn't update YouTube's player controls — the volume icon stays unchanged and the player behaves inconsistently. Mute Tab Manager directly silences the underlying video element, keeping YouTube's UI in sync. Mute state is automatically re-applied after in-page navigation and page reloads, so YouTube never sneaks audio back in.
Permissions
Features
- Instant Tab Muting
- Mute and unmute the active tab with a single toolbar click or the keyboard shortcut Alt+Shift+M.
- A clear badge on the icon always shows you whether a tab is muted.
- Mute All Tabs at Once
- Right-click the toolbar icon and choose Mute All Tabs to silence every open tab in one action — great for quickly silencing your browser before a meeting or presentation.
