Added auto-saving of Custom Actions on any change, eliminating the need to manually press the save button.

Resolved a macOS bug that caused the first triggered Custom Action to be remembered and repeated, even when a different custom action was triggered.

Manually adding custom actions can be time-consuming. With MuteDeck's Custom Action Library, you now have a convenient way to enhance your meeting control with just a few clicks.

By default when MuteDeck doesn't detect a call, it controls your microphone directly. So, if you're on a call app that's not supported, you can still mute! For some, that can be ideal, for some, maybe not. That's why I've added a setting to let you disable the system microphone control.

Added support for the new "Bring to Front" action that pulls the Zoom, Teams, and other application windows to the front. That way the conference call apps are way easier to find when you're multitasking. Pending plugin releases (Stream Deck v8.0, Loupedeck v6.0).

One of the greatest things about MuteDeck is the ability to use the same buttons in different conference call apps. The initial Custom Actions didn't allow that, so I changed that!

Now, you can create custom actions with the same name. Meaning, you can create a custom action called that has the right shortcuts for the right apps. Below is an example for Zoom and Google Meet.

In Stream Deck, Loupedeck, etc., you can select raise-hand as the action, and when pressing the button, MuteDeck will figure out which is the active call app and send the right shortcut. It'll even send it to multiple active calls. 😂

Maybe you spotted it in the above screenshot; I've also added a new option called "Active Application" to the custom actions. This will send the shortcut to the application window that's active. Any application. Any shortcut. Let that sink in. 😊

So, if MuteDeck does not support your preferred conference call app yet, creating Custom Actions using the will let you control your calls anyway. In the screenshot above, I used Discord as an example, which uses shift+command+m to toggle mute on macOS.

But it does not have to be limited to call apps. It can be any app and any shortcut. The copy-text action is a perfect example.

I'm excited to announce this update includes , a feature that allows you to send any keyboard shortcut to Zoom, Teams, Webex, or Google Meet. Yup, that's right. You can now do anything with MuteDeck! 🤯

Here's a few examples of how you could use Custom Actions: raise your hand, change to the gallery view, open the chat, and so many more!

There are also new buttons that can be used in multi-action buttons. These buttons do only one thing, like unmute, start or stop video, sharing, or recording. Remember, Single Action buttons don't show the current status, you can keep using the Toggle buttons for that.

Minor updates to the Chrome Extension for Google Meet:

I am delighted to announce that MuteDeck v1.5 now supports the Microsoft Teams Third-Party API! What is it, you might ask? I'm glad you asked!

The newest version of Teams has a direct communication channel with third-party apps such as MuteDeck. Thus, rather than scanning the Teams interface, MuteDeck can directly inquire about Teams' status and manage it.

This means:

The new actions are:

MuteDeck's API (and built-in specifications for developers) has already incorporated these new features. The Stream Deck, Loupedeck, and TouchPortal plugins will follow soon!

I have also corrected a glitch in which Webex was wrongly shown as disabled when it was turned on in the settings.

You might need to install an update twice. This is part of optimising the updater, so it can go smoothly in the future.

: Version 1.4.3 includes a major improvement for speed and reliability, which involves checking only the necessary applications. This fixes sluggishness in apps that were added later (Webex, Teams).

Zoom and Teams will be enabled by default, but if you use other apps, you can enable them in the settings under the new section called "Application Sync":

The first time you launch v1.4.3, it'll open the settings dock automatically and call attention to the settings.

But wait, there's more!
