Sound Found Extension

Sound Found is a simple lightweight chrome extension that helps the user to quickly locate and manage audible tabs. With the ability to SELECT, PAUSE, MUTE and REMOVE audible tabs at any time!

Ever had several tabs open, perhaps even tabs on other windows, and can’t seem to find the one tab playing sound amongst the many?

Now you can simply press the extension on the top right of your browser and it will provide a list of all audible tabs to manage: 1) Click the title to quickly navigate to the chosen tab; 2) Selected audible tabs can be conveniently paused for later viewing or removed at any time; 3) Click the eye to quickly mute/unmute all audible tabs.

Maybe you want to find audible tabs quicker? Use Alt + Shift + Comma to cycle through all audible tabs or Alt + Shift + M to mute/unmute all.

Pause/play works with several popular websites such as Youtube, Twitch.tv, Netflix, Spotify, SoundCloud and much more!

Features:

Manage specific audible tabs with dropdown
Cycle through audible tabs: Alt + Shift + Comma
Mute/Unmute all audible tabs: Alt + Shift + M

(ID: ) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 01/20/2019 I usually open multiple videos and then end up having trouble to close and pause. With my bad vision it is hard to identify the tab and pause. After using this I am able to pause and watch it later on. Very COOL!

Scott Petersen (ID: 00000005ab244a1a) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 01/17/2019 Works as advertised! It's nice that it can actually pause the video that's making noise instead of just closing the tab. Very handy if you actually might want to go back and watch it at some point.
