Oddly enough, this is the app that made me realize that Chrome puts a recording symbol next to the name of the page when a page is using your microphone now (kind of like when they put the speaker icon on tabs that are playing sound). I think that's pretty cool! http://i.imgur.com/GV5TktA.png Edit: I should also mention that this is really well done, and I've been looking for something simple like this for a while. T…

This is good, but what would be great is if I can click on that icon and silence the page. This would be useful to silence those ads that play a video automatically and don't provide a stop button

Personally I would hate clickable areas of a tab selector itself.

This worked on Chrome on Android (KitKat 4.4) but not on Firefox Beta for Android. Both correctly showed the microphone sharing notification, but on Firefox, no sound ever registers.

Wow I didn't think it was supported on Android Chrome yet or any mobile browsers. That's awesome!

It should have worked on Firefox too but there's a bug
