Tab Volume is a simple and efficient Chrome extension designed to control the audio volume of your browser tabs. It is especially effective on media-rich websites like YouTube and Twitch, where managing sound levels quickly can greatly enhance your browsing experience.

The extension works on sites that utilize <audio> or <video> HTML elements for media playback. Key features include adjusting volume through a user-friendly slider or by pressing number keys 0 to 5, displaying the current volume level directly in the icon badge for quick reference, and support for both light and dark modes to suit your preference. Note that it does not work on websites that use other methods for audio playback.

Extension safety

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Tab Volume does not require any sensitive permissions.

Risk impact analysis details
    Risk likelihood
    Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Browser Add-ons, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.
