A volume slider
for every app.
Android has one media volume for everything. AppVolume gives every app its own. Set a level once and it applies every time that app plays.
Features
Turn one down, leave the rest alone
A slider for every app
Each app gets its own volume, from silent to full. Turn the game down and keep the podcast up, or make directions louder than the music.
Mute one app with one tap
Silence a single app without touching the rest. Everything else keeps playing at the level you left it.
Set it once
Your levels are remembered and applied automatically every time that app plays. You can also set a level in advance for an app that is not playing yet.
One steady list
Every app you set sits in one list by name, and it never jumps around when an app starts or stops. Apps that start playing show up above it, one tap away from a level of their own.
Always within reach
A Quick Settings tile opens the mixer over any app. There is also a mixer notification with mute, down and up buttons for the app that is playing, and a home screen widget.
No accessibility service
AppVolume does not watch your screen or your volume keys, and it never hears, records or sends your audio. It only turns a level up or down.
How it works
One-time setup, no computer
Android protects other apps' audio, so AppVolume needs one permission that only the phone's own developer tools can give. The app walks you through it:
- 1Turn on Wireless debugging
- 2Type a six-digit pairing code
- 3Done. You can turn Wireless debugging off again
The permission stays through restarts and updates, so you do it once. Shizuku and root are also supported if you already use them. The pairing happens on the phone itself and nothing leaves it.
Good to know
- Requires Android 11 or newer.
- A few apps play sound in ways Android does not let anything change, such as some games with low-latency audio. AppVolume tells you when that happens instead of pretending.
- When an app starts playing there can be a split second at its normal volume before your level applies.
- If you use an equalizer app, it may take control of the same audio.
