0Turn the Chrome Audio Icon on a Tab into a Mute Button [Guide]
As you might be knowing, Google Chrome has a nice audio indicator for tabs which produce sounds or music. If you open a YouTube video in some tab, that tab will have a speaker icon. Today we will see how to mute all tabs at once using only the keyboard.
In one of its last updates, Chrome rolled out a feature that puts up a speaker icon next to any tab that’s playing audio or video. It might look like a small, inconsequential upgrade, but make no mistake, this is a lifesaver. Especially when one of those auto playing video ads start on a web page. Instead of wasting your time digging through all the tabs you have open, you can directly navigate to the tab where the video/audio is playing and stop it.
