Do you ever find yourself scrambling to stop music playback on your Mac when a call comes in? QuietMeet is a new app that takes care of that for you.

Compatible with Zoom, Google Meet, FaceTime and other popular services, QuietMeet automatically pauses your music when a call comes in — then resumes it when the call has ended. And it never gets in your way.

QuietMeet takes care of music playback

If you use a bunch of different audio services on Mac, it can be a pain to control playback when you’re in a hurry. Did you start listening to Rick Astley on Apple Music or YouTube? Is that podcast in Spotify or Audible? Who knows?!

With QuietMeet for macOS, you can forget about all of that.

Automatic pause when a call comes in

QuietMeet is a simple app that sits in your Mac’s menu bar and stays out of your way when you don’t need it. You’ll probably forget you have it installed until a call comes in, then it leaps into action and pauses audio automatically.

QuietMeet works with almost all of the most popular meeting services, including Zoom, Google Meet, Webex, and FaceTime. And that’s regardless of whether you’re using a native app, or running them through your web browser.

When your meeting is over, QuietMeet will resume your music, podcast, or audiobook automatically, so you don’t have to go digging for it later.

If QuietMeet sounds like a tool you would find useful, you can download it today from the Mac App Store. It’s priced at $1.99, which seems like a bargain given how useful it could be if you engage in remote meetings on a regular basis.
