Volux is a browser extension for Chrome and Firefox designed to provide granular audio control by allowing users to set and save custom volume levels for individual websites and, with its Pro version, for each browser tab. The tool addresses the common frustration of inconsistent or excessively loud audio across different sites by remembering user-defined volume preferences and automatically reapplying them every time a site is visited. This eliminates the need to repeatedly adjust volume settings, even after refreshing a page, closing the browser, or rebooting the computer, as all preferences are stored locally within the browser.
Key features include per-site volume sliders, persistent settings that survive browser restarts, and the ability to mute or set specific levels for problematic or loud websites such as YouTube, Facebook, or Zoom. Volux operates entirely client-side, requiring no user accounts or cloud synchronization, and does not track user activity or collect telemetry. The extension is open source and lightweight, measured in kilobytes, and does not run background polling processes. It is suitable for users who frequently multitask with audio from multiple sources, such as video calls, music, tutorials, or social media, and who want a stable, customized listening experience across sessions.
The free version of Volux allows control of volume settings for up to two domains, with per-domain volume management and persistent settings. The Pro version, available for a one-time payment, unlocks unlimited domain support and introduces per-tab volume overrides, enabling each tab—even on the same website—to have its own independent audio level. Additional Pro features include auto-detection of media sites, a scan tabs function, and lifetime updates, all without any subscription or recurring fees.
Installation is straightforward, requiring only a single click to add the extension to Chrome or Firefox. The interface is designed to be clean and minimally intrusive, with expandable controls for more detailed adjustments as needed. Volux is positioned as a privacy-friendly, open-source solution for browser-based audio management, offering both free and paid options to accommodate different user needs.
