How to Mute Google Chrome Tabs Individually

Google

It is very likely that when you browse using Google Chrome on your computer, have a series of tabs open. This is very common when we use the browser on the computer. Therefore, it is likely that in one of them we are listening to music, such as using YouTube. At a certain point we can start to have a sound in another tab, which is annoying.

Unfortunately, we do not have a native function in Google Chrome that gives us the possibility to mute tabs individually. In this sense we have to make use of other tools. Although if this is what we want to achieve, there is a way to do it with total comfort.

In the past there was a function that allowed us to do this in Google Chrome. Although the company, for some unknown reason, has opted to eliminate this feature in the most recent versions. A shame, because it is something very useful. Luckily, we currently have a browser extension available. Thanks to it we have the possibility to mute tabs individually.

Tab Mute

The extension is called Tab Muter, which we can find in the browser extensions store, this link. The operation of it is really simple. Since it will show us a small icon of a speaker, so that we know that there is sound in that particular tab. When we want to silence it, we will only have to click on the icon in question, so that it remains silent directly and thus be able to use the browser comfortably.

If we want that tab in Google Chrome to emit sound again, we just have to click on that icon again. So the sound will come back to it. It is a really comfortable way of being able to have this management of the tabs in the browser individually. So it is worth using.

This is an extension for which we do not have to pay money at any time. In addition, its use, as you can see, is really simple. So those who would like a good way to have this possibility in Google Chrome, this extension is the perfect solution for it.
