Hi friends! 🐙 If you upgraded to Ventura and noticed some high CPU usage when using Mic Drop, turns out the new Continuity Camera feature was messing with things! We've shipped a fix to solve the issue. Quit and relaunch Mic Drop, and everything should sort itself out. 🙌

After waiting on Apple for six months, I rolled up my sleeves and worked around Monterey’s bananas Bluetooth bug myself. Now you can use @MicDropApp in Monterey with AirPods again 😅 octopusthink.com/blog/2022-0… – at Edinburgh, Scotland

Coming super-duper soon to a @MicDropApp near you: visual mute notifications! We're working on making it as clear as possible when you're muted, and when you're live. 🙊

For everyone who's written us about Monterey muting Bluetooth headphones when the mic is muted—we know how annoying this bug is.😡 Since Apple won't fix it, we've developed and tested a workaround and it's been good so far. 🙂 We'll have more to announce soon. Stay tuned!🤞

We've just updated Mic Drop, our mic-muting app, for Big Sur & new Macs. (Don't worry, it still works perfectly on Catalina.) 🚀 And, for December only, we've lowered the price to $2.99 (normally $6.99). Happy (quiet) holidays! 🙉 getmicdrop.com

WebEx’s latest release has a bug in detecting “unmute” status, which means it stays muted even after you unmute with Mic Drop. We’ve contacted @Webex and offered to help, but in the meantime you can still use the web-based version with Mic Drop. Only the Mac app is affected.

The latest version of Cisco’s WebEx has a “microphone status syncing” feature. Sadly, it doesn’t check for changes to the system mute status so won’t unmute when Mic Drop unmutes your microphone. Unfortunately this is a WebEx bug and not something we can fix.

The latest version of Cisco’s WebEx has a new feature that tries to detect system mute status. Unfortunately it looks like it doesn’t detect _unmuting_, so doesn’t unmute you when you unmute with Mic Drop. We’re looking into it, but best bet for now is to disable the setting:

So we’re all still working from home, and no one loves a noisy coworker, typing away or sneezing in an online meeting. We just released a new Mac app, @MicDropApp, to handle muting yourself during meetings in Zoom, Google Meet, and more! Try it for free at getmicdrop.com/?pk_campaign=…
