MicShield for Mac

MicShield gives you 100% confidence over your microphone privacy on macOS. Whether you're on Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, Slack, or Discord, MicShield cuts your microphone at the CoreAudio hardware level with a single keystroke, while your MacBook camera notch glows red to show your mute status.
