The most requested addition
Optional Always on follows you across supported websites and tabs, including reloads and browser restarts.
Enable it once and allow website access in Chrome.
Switch Normalize volume On or Off whenever you like. Your target and Always on preference stay saved.
Clear status messages help when a player needs another try.
Choose any target from 10% to 100%. No email, no unlock code, no extra step.
Start at 60% and adjust while you listen.
A new violet wave logo, more room for your controls, and a refreshed dark mode for quieter evenings.

When the update arrives
Your saved target, appearance and On/Off choice carry over. Always on is new, and starts off.
Make sure Normalize volume is On.
Turn it on and allow Chrome’s website-access request.
Play something and move Target level to suit your listening.
Open Normalize Volume while audio is playing. With Always on enabled, it can try Tab mode. If needed, select Normalize this tab to try again. Chrome needs you to open the extension to start this mode.
Target level shapes the normalization. It isn’t your device volume or a guaranteed peak ceiling. Chrome 119 or later is required.
New: Test Audio
Open Test Audio right from the extension. Choose a sample,
move the target, and hear the difference.
Leave a little thanks and support the work behind Normalize Volume. Tips are always optional.

Check the player, Chrome’s tab mute setting and your output device. Pause Audio spike guard to compare. If needed, reload the media page and activate it again.
