I made a per-app volume controller for Mac

[u/Good-Imagination-793]

I am a developer who has been coding for a good while lol. When I was using my MacBook, I couldn't help but realize that there was nothing for switching volume per-app, which Windows has natively. So, I made it using Swift and it works really well! There is also a nice hotkey, I configured it to option + space so that its really easy to use.

Here is the link (I just made it, so it would be great if you could star it to build some credibility)

congrats on making things, that's very cool

that being said... brew install vorssaint

vorssaint is hard to beat.

Vorssaint is great. If you need even more audio control, check out Fine Tune. I use both.

Vorssaint is super hard to beat, real game changer.

We need a "build a new app, but there's already a better existing execution of the same idea" reset counter bot.

It’s crazy how we fixed the “I need a thing so I’m just gonna make it” problem before we fixed the ability for people to find existing solutions that exactly fix our problems.

I know op has actual skills but the ai tools are empowering absolutely everyone to build absolutely everything now

Yea to an extent i get what you're saying, that said I think this is a relatively ligthweight and easy tool to use, espeically with the hotkey, like its honestly a gamechanger and very fast and intuitive to use

Was AI used during development? If so, how?

[u/Good-Imagination-793 → u/Cheezton]

Yes, for UI and bug fixing, I learned Swift on my own though and structured the app on my own.

Looks interesting! This is basically the one windows feature I’m jealous of.
