One-click microphone mute from your menu bar with a global hotkey toggle
Shhh is a menu bar utility for instantly muting and unmuting your microphone with a single hotkey. A clear status icon shows whether you're live or muted — red mic-slash when muted, regular mic when active. Uses direct CoreAudio integration for hardware-level mute with automatic device switching support. Never accidentally broadcast again.
