New

• The tray icon can now show your mute status during calls.
• You can choose whether red or green indicates mute/camera status.

This makes it much easier to check your status at a glance, and see the right color for you. Both of these can be changed in the Appearance section of the settings.

• Also, the changelog has moved to mutedeck.com/changelog.

Improved

• Default hotkeys are included and can be enabled with a single toggle for easier use.
• The Settings design has been cleaned up for easier use.

Fixed

• Browser-based meetings sometimes kept counting in your Meeting Time - even when they were done, making it look like you had way more meetings than actual.
• macOS: Menu bar icon color issues on newer macOS versions. It could happen that the icon was the same color as the menu bar, making MuteDeck "disappear" - but not anymore.
• macOS: MuteDeck now fully follows theme and menu bar changes on the fly.

 macOS Users

After updating, you'll need to re-authorize MuteDeck in System Settings > Privacy & Security > Accessibility. Simply remove MuteDeck from the list, then relaunch the app to grant permissions again. Don't just disable the permissions, remove MuteDeck from the list.

✨ New Features

• Light Theme - A highly requested addition! Switch between light and dark themes in Settings to match your preference or system appearance.
• Meeting Time Statistics - Track how much time you spend in meetings across all your apps. View daily, weekly, and monthly breakdowns by application.
• Other Actions - Renamed from "Custom Actions" for clarity. Now comes pre-populated with popular shortcuts for reactions, chat, participants, and more - ready to use out of the box.

🛠️ Improvements

• Future-Proof Teams Integration - Seamlessly combines the official Microsoft API with fallback interface control. When Microsoft deprecates the third-party API (as Elgato announced), MuteDeck will continue working automatically.

Small update to add Microsoft Teams support behind the Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps security barrier (teams.microsoft.com.mcas.ms)

Version 3.1 comes with two big updates: Jitsi Meet support and new ways to customize your Busylight. Plus, we’ve made a couple of small but useful improvements under the hood.

Jitsi Meet support

MuteDeck now works with Jitsi Meet, so you can control your mute and camera directly in your Jitsi meetings, just like you already do with Zoom, Teams, and other supported platforms. This works through the browser with the MuteDeck browser extension.

If you’re using the Chrome or Firefox extension, you may have noticed a request for additional permissions from the MuteDeck extension. Please go ahead and approve it — nothing has changed about the privacy controls, but the extensions needed broader access to support custom Jitsi Meet instances.

Busylight gets smarter

If you’re using a busylight to show your availability, you’ll love the new customization options in the settings:

• Custom colors: Pick your exact busy and free colors using simple sliders.
• Blink when busy: Let your light flash when you’re in a call so nobody interrupts.

Other improvements

• Better handling for system microphones that don’t support muting (i.e. the built-in MacBook mic). MuteDeck will set the mic volume to 0 instead (and back to its original level when unmuting).
• Bring to Front with Discord is now less intrusive: it only comes to the front if you’re actually in a call.
• The MuteDeck window now remembers its position, it reopens right where you left it.

Stream Deck plugin v11.2

Also, the new Stream Deck plugin version 11.2 re-introduces the option to customize icons for the disabled states of mute, video, share, and recording. Check out this help article for more info.

This one's a big one: MuteDeck now works with Discord!

You can now control your Discord voice channel status straight from your Stream Deck, Loupedeck, or Touch Portal. All the actions you're used to—mute, camera, share, leave, and custom actions—now work for Discord voice channels too.

Just like with Zoom, Teams, and Google Meet, MuteDeck lets you quickly see and control your Discord voice state at a glance. Whether you're jumping between meetings and gaming sessions, or just want a faster way to mute yourself mid-conversation—it's now just a button press away.

A quick note on setup: Discord requires you to create your own personal Discord app to make this work. It takes a few minutes and we've got a step-by-step guide to walk you through it. We hope to make this setup process simpler in the future, but for now—it's a one-time thing, and once it's done, you're good to go.

Other improvements and fixes

While Discord support is the headline feature, we've also made improvements across the board:

• Zoom 6.5+ (Windows): Fixed an issue where mute status could fall out of sync after Zoom changed their interface.
• Windows UAC Prompt Fix: Some Windows installs were showing a UAC prompt when checking for updates. That's now fixed.
• Teams Connection Status: We've added a quick status label for Microsoft Teams in the settings window. Now you can instantly see whether MuteDeck is connected to Teams or not.
• Performance tweaks: Numerous backend changes to make things a bit faster and a bit smoother.

As always, thanks for using MuteDeck! If you run into any issues with the new Discord support—or just want to share how you're using it—drop us a note.

This release is all [mostly] about Microsoft Teams!

• Support for Microsoft Teams v25072.1704.3539.4369 (I know, right?), which has been rolling out slowly starting April 6:

The third-party integration API was changed around setting up a new pairing. If you already were paired with this Teams version, you probably hadn't noticed. If you have been trying to pair MuteDeck to this Teams versions and it wasn't successful; now it will be.

• Sometimes Teams also sends a malformed message through their third-party API, which MuteDeck couldn't read. This mostly happens on non-English Teams versions. MuteDeck will now try and correct the message and read it anyway.

• This MuteDeck version wil also be better with Microsoft Team call timeouts:

It could happen that MuteDeck stop thinking Teams was in a call, to detect it a few seconds later. This was because the Teams third-party API can have a very long response time (12 seconds or more). MuteDeck now allows those longer response times.

Other changes

• Windows: Fix the window being always on top when starting MuteDeck, even if the setting was disabled.

• Fix the Browser Extension setting also disabling the Stream Deck, Loupedeck, Touch Portal, and other integrations. It's supposed to only control the Chrome and Firefox extensions.

p.s. we used 2.9.2 and 2.9.3 for testing purposed, that's why this release jumps to 2.9.4. 😉

MuteDeck v2.9.1

• New support to control Riverside.fm podcast sessions
• Rename Google Meet active application setting to Browser Extension. This is because there are much more meetings controlled via the browser extension, like google meet, the web versions of Zoom and Microsoft Teams, StreamYard, and now Riverside.fm sessions.
• Fixes for app window resizing when selecting a new button size, and general improvements on the user-interface to make it better looking.

Browser extension v4.0.2

• Support for Riverside.fm
• Fixed issues with sending custom actions on Windows
• Fixed the "Bring to Front" action, which now selects the meeting tab and brings the browser window to the foreground
• The popup now shows a helpful message when you're on an unsupported website, replacing the confusing empty status indicators for mute, video, and other controls.

• Windows: Support Zoom v6.2+
• Allow custom actions without any modifiers (ctrl, shift, etc.) to send a series of keys.
• Resize window when the button size is changed, without having to reopen it.

MuteDeck App

New: Hotkeys A highly requested feature, hotkeys are now available to make managing your meetings even easier. With hotkeys, you can set a keyboard shortcut for each built-in action: muting, video control, sharing, recording, and leaving the meeting.

This means you no longer need to reach for your Stream Deck, Loupedeck, or other device integrated with MuteDeck—you can instantly mute yourself or perform other actions using a keyboard shortcut.

It’s even possible to integrate meeting controls with other devices (such as keyboard macro keys) that can send shortcuts.

New: Settings Window We’ve moved the settings from the slide-out section to a dedicated window, organized with tabs to group different settings. This makes navigating and managing settings easier and less overwhelming.

Others

• Ensured that the status API always returns the call field, even if no call is active (setting it to "inactive" in that case).
• Added support for Stream, a white-label video streaming service. This integration uses a custom browser extension, and we’ve added recognition of their logo in this release. More info here: https://getstream.io/blog/streamdeck-mutedeck/

MuteDeck App

✨ New:

• Support for Chrome extension v3.0 & Firefox extension.
• Support for Zoom v6 (Windows & macOS).
• Support for StreamYard to manage live or recorded streams using MuteDeck.

🐛 Fixed:

• Fix possible crashes when notifications (Busylights or webhooks) are enabled and endpoints aren’t available or respond too slowly.
• Fix German translation support for Zoom (v6).
• Fix the size of the window when using the small buttons - make sure the window stays small.
• Fix not correctly set 'Enable System Microphone' when the client starts. If you disabled that setting, it would be enabled when you restart the client.

✨ Google Chrome extension v3.0

• Support for StreamYard!
• Support for the web version of Zoom and Microsoft Teams! All languages are supported, so no caveats here. 😊
• Support for StreamYard.
• Updated the extension name to “MuteDeck” from “MuteDeck for Google Meet” to fit the new functionalities.

🔥 New Firefox Extension v3.0

I'm excited to introduce a Firefox extension, so you can have meetings inside Firefox and manage them using MuteDeck! The Firefox extension is exactly the same as the Chrome extension, so you can control Google Meet, StreamYard, and web calls on Zoom and Microsoft Teams.
