AutoPause

AutoPause is a Chrome extension designed to enhance your concentration by automatically pausing audio and video sources playing in background tabs. It prevents overlapping media sounds by pausing them when another tab becomes active or when your device is locked, reducing distractions effectively.

Key features include optional permissions for controlling which websites can be paused, the ability to disable automatic resume or restrict it to active and marked tabs, and flexible settings allowing for media pause on tab changes or device locking. For privacy-conscious users, there's a no-permission mode that discards tabs when necessary. AutoPause's source code is openly available under the MIT license at GitHub.
