User reviews

With autodisable disabled, when I deactivate the microphone it would enable the microphone with no notification.

Phone Record, 2022-10-20

When activated it does the job BUT after activation it will automatically turn back on by itself even when the app isn't exited out. I will activate it so that the mic is off and check up on it again in 5 min and it is on.....
