Mic Stop is a tiny menu bar utility for macOS that lets you mute or unmute your microphone with a global hotkey.
It stays out of the way, lives in the menu bar, and keeps your chosen mute state even if you switch from your MacBook mic to a Bluetooth headset or another input device.
- toggles your microphone from anywhere with a keyboard shortcut
- runs quietly in the menu bar without a Dock icon
- remembers your preferred hotkey
- follows microphone changes automatically
- can launch when you log in
- macOS Sequoia or newer
If you want the proper macOS app experience, open MicStop.xcodeproj in Xcode and run the MicStop scheme.
If Xcode asks for signing, select your own Apple development team in the project settings.
