Tab Sound Finder

Heard a ding? See which tab made it. A live list of tabs playing sound, plus a timeline of the ones that just did.

Find the browser tab that's making sound, or the one that just did. Chrome shows a small speaker on a tab while it's making sound. For a video, that's enough. For a one-second alert, the speaker is gone before you find it. Tab Sound Finder remembers, so you can trace a ding after it stops. FEATURES • Making sound now — every tab that's playing audio, with how long it's been playing. Click a tab to jump to it, mute it without leaving the page you're on, or silence everything at once with Mute all. • Sound timeline — a running log of what made noise and when. Short alerts and long-playing media are marked differently, so a chat notification doesn't look like a video. Repeated sounds from the same tab are grouped into one entry. • "Who dinged?" shortcut — press Alt+Shift+S (Option+Shift+S on Mac) to jump straight to the tab that made a sound most recently. Press it again to go to the one before that. • Toolbar badge — shows how many tabs are making sound, and the icon's bars bounce when a new sound starts. HOW TO USE 1. Pin Tab Sound Finder to your toolbar from the puzzle-piece menu. 2. When you hear something, click the icon. Tabs playing right now are at the top; the timeline below shows what played recently. 3. Click any entry to go to that tab, or press the shortcut to jump to the most recent sound without opening the list. 4. To change the shortcut, open chrome://extensions/shortcuts. GOOD FOR • Tracking down a chat, email, or calendar alert across dozens of tabs • Finding the video that started playing in a background tab • Checking which tab is still on a call • Muting a noisy tab without hunting for it PRIVACY Tab Sound Finder does not collect any data. Everything stays on your device. • Nothing is sent anywhere. There is no server, no account, and no analytics. • Tab titles and addresses are read only to show them to you in the list. • The timeline keeps the last 100 sounds and is erased when you quit Chrome. You can clear it yourself at any time. • It never listens to, records, or analyzes audio. It only knows that a tab is making sound. Privacy policy: https://stoodio.com/tab-sound-finder/privacy PERMISSIONS When you install, Chrome warns that the extension can read your browsing history. That is Chrome's wording for the access needed to see the titles and addresses of your open tabs, which is how the list can name the tab that made a sound. The extension looks only at tabs that are making sound and never sends that information anywhere. GOOD TO KNOW • It covers sound from browser tabs. It can't see sound from other apps on your computer. • Each Chrome profile has its own list. Install it in each profile you use. • Chrome keeps a tab marked as making sound for a second or two after the sound ends, so very short alerts show as a few seconds long. SUPPORT Questions or ideas?
