Audible Audio Control Extension

Audible Volume Control is an extension that was created because I personally was tired of not being able to control the volume when using the Audible web-player.

At the time of writing this, Audible has just announced that they are discontinuing their native Audible app for Windows (it will probably be replaced with the Android version in Windows 11). Soon, the only option will be the web-player.

Should work for all domains.

Dainys Ard (ID: 00000092a8522b76) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 08/23/2023 I installed this because Audibles web player pretty much yells into my ears, and for an audio based program, to not have sound control, is very odd. So I installed this extension so I could lessen the volume without turning down the master volume on my computer. Love it!!

Frank Top (ID: 000000fd2c410ee2) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 05/31/2023 Thanks for making this. It is utterly bizarre to me that audio-focused web players are missing this functionality. Bandcamp is another one one needs an extension for for volume control.

Flesh (ID: 000000e8579e748d) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 05/17/2023 Works. Incredible that something like this is even necessary. Shame on amazon/audible for not having a volume slider.
