Toggle mic

The fast mic toggle feature lets you mute and unmute instantly during your Zoom call. The updated on-screen mic status display also seamlessly blends with macOS.

Mic toggle: Instantly mute or unmute your microphone during Zoom call with enhanced responsiveness. Whether you're using Caps Lock or Zoom's mute button, your visual indicators will always appear, ensuring you know your mic status at all times.

Once Airbounce is running, the Caps Lock key is disabled for traditional typing (writing in ALL CAPS) and is repurposed for Airbounce functions like joining a call, toggling the mic, or leaving a call. If you still want to write in capitals, you can use SHIFT + letter instead.

On-screen display: The mic status now integrates seamlessly with macOS, matching its look and feel. The display is optimized for both light and dark modes, providing the sleek appearance you expect on your Mac.

Menu bar indicator: The mic status indicator in the menu bar provides complementary status, especially useful in poor lighting conditions when the Caps Lock LED green light may not be visible. This feature is configurable; you can turn the indicator on or off using the Airbounce menu > Show Mic Status. The status will only appear when a Zoom call is active and can be customized to be turned off if preferred.

How to use

  1. Join a Zoom call using Airbounce.

  2. Press Caps Lock (or Zoom's mute button) to mute or unmute as needed.

  3. The on-screen display will update instantly, showing your mic status with a design that matches your macOS theme.
