Before your next meeting
A few good questions.
Which AirPods and Macs work?
You’ll need macOS 15 or later and AirPods (3rd generation or later), AirPods Pro or AirPods Max. Squeeze the stem on AirPods and AirPods Pro; press the Digital Crown on AirPods Max. If you’re on macOS 27, check compatibility during the trial.
Do I need the browser extension?
Yes. Install the Mac app and its extension for Chrome, Edge, Brave or Arc. Together, they let your AirPods control Meet’s own mute button. The setup guide walks you through both.
What about Zoom, FaceTime and Teams?
Zoom 6.4+, FaceTime and the native Teams app already support the stem gesture, so HotMic leaves them alone. Teams on the web is in beta. In other apps, HotMic can mute your Mac’s mics, but the app’s mute indicator may not change.
What about Beats?
Apple documents call-mute controls on Beats Studio Pro, Solo 4, Solo Buds, Studio Buds +, Fit Pro and Powerbeats Pro 2. We haven’t yet verified these models with HotMic, so they aren’t on our supported-headphones list. Apple’s Beats controls guide.
How does the trial work?
Your 14-day trial starts at your first meeting and includes every feature. No card or account is required, and you won’t be charged automatically. After the trial, purchase a license to keep using HotMic’s meeting controls. Settings, diagnostics, license activation and uninstall help remain accessible.
What else is included?
Use a keyboard shortcut to toggle mute, or hold a key to talk and release it to mute again. Device mute silences your Mac’s microphones in other apps; their on-screen mute indicator may not change. Stealth Mute deliberately silences your mics without changing Meet’s indicator. All of these controls are included in the trial and paid license.
Does HotMic record my conversations?
No. Your audio is never recorded, stored or sent. HotMic runs on your Mac, with no analytics or trackers. Read the privacy policy.
