If you accidentally speak while muted during a call, Tuple displays a notification to let you know. This helps you avoid talking without being heard by your pair.

​
How it works

When you’re muted during a call, Tuple listens for your voice in the background. If it detects sustained speech for about half a second, a “You’re muted” notification appears in the in-call notification stack anchored under the Tuple status item.The notification gives you two options:
  • Unmute Me — immediately unmutes your microphone so your pair can hear you.
  • Got it — dismisses the notification. The alert can still fire again later in the call (subject to the cooldown below).
If you close the notification without clicking either button, the feature stays active and will notify you again the next time it detects speech while muted.

​
Cooldown

After the notification fires, there is a two-minute cooldown before it can trigger again. This prevents repeated alerts if you mute and unmute frequently during a call.

​
Disabling the notification

Dismissing the notification with Got it no longer silences future alerts for the rest of the call — suppression is now explicit. To stop receiving the notification, use the cancel pill’s menu on the card:
  • Snooze for This Call — suppresses the speaking-while-muted notification for the remainder of the current call only. It re-enables automatically on your next call.
  • Never Show Again — turns the notification off permanently. This is the same setting as Notify me when: Speaking while muted in Audio preferences, and you can re-enable it there at any time.
This feature is not available on Linux.
