Volumest

This is a chrome extension I wrote in order to fix a problem I've been long dealing with: low max volume on my personal laptop.

Why another volume boost extension

All the solutions I found on the chrome web store currently have issues when it comes to fullscreen and usualy lead to low performance of the tab being boosted.

How it works

The extension icon works as a toggle:

  • click to boost the volume
  • an indicator will show the multiplier that is applied to your volume
  • click again to increase it

The current implementation limits the multiplier to 3. You can further increase it from background.js if you know a tiny bit of javascript. (Make sure you reload the extension and refresh the tabs if you do so)

How to install

From source code

  • Clone or download the repository
  • Go to chrome://extensions
  • Make sure you have "Developer mode" on (top right corner)
  • Click Load unpacked and select the project directory

From web store

To (maybe) be added.
