Ace your Zoom meetings – Enhance your calling workflow with one magic button to join, talk, mute, or leave calls in a snap. Always know whether you're muted or unmuted. Boost your productivity and say goodbye to those 'You're on mute' moments!
Hey there! 👋
I’m excited to introduce Airbounce for Mac – a magic button for easier calls (currently for Zoom).
I originally built this for myself but soon realized many people struggle with muting/unmuting during meetings, especially on modern Macs and Zoom. During the pandemic, this issue became even more apparent, and I wanted to create a better solution. This is the designer in me talking—I can’t stand subpar interactions, especially when they’re frequently painful.
At first, I designed and built a physical button prototype, but due to patent restrictions, I discontinued it (another story). On a software level, I knew I couldn’t improve much, since the real problem is that the mute status isn’t visible in the physical world to the user or their surroundings (like when working from home). Luckily, I later had an intriguing idea to explore: there's a button that can solve this problem — Caps Lock, everyone already has it and it has a green light indicator. No hardware needs to be bought or shipped (which I liked even more). Plus, the Caps Lock key is kind of a relic, and today there are better ways to emphasize text using modern styles.
Along the way, I identified more pain points, like how joining or leaving calls often takes too many clicks or how frustrating it is to leave a meeting, often accidentally ending the call for everyone else! 😅
👉 Now, I’m making Airbounce available to everyone.
✨ Key Features:
• View your daily schedule
• Join calls instantly
• Mute/unmute easily from any Mac space
• Visual indicators: LED – the green light on Caps Lock, menu bar mic status, on-screen display, and even Apple Shortcut integration with HomeKit-enabled smart lights; project mic status (e.g., red/green) behind your screen—acting like an "on-air" indicator so others in your home know when it’s okay to talk! This last indicator is experimental.
👩🏻💻 Who’s it for?
• macOS users in frequent Zoom meetings looking for a simpler workflow
• Home office users who want to improve their remote working environment with their roommates or family
