Better Volume Booster - Firefox Add-on

"Better Volume Booster" is a free and open-source Firefox add-on designed to boost the volume of web pages and remember your preferred settings. Unlike other volume boosters, it ensures a consistent audio output without muting any pages, though it cannot boost volumes for DRM-protected content like Netflix and Spotify. For easy usage and further details, refer to the README.md on its GitHub page.

Add-on summary

Better Volume Booster Have you ever had that issue where a volume booster add-on would just forget what volume did you set it to on a page, or would outright mute some pages? No? Well, I have, and it's quite frustrating. That's why I created this add-on.

This is a simple free & open-source add-on that allows you to boost the volume of any* page and will (thankfully) remember the volume you set it to.

*Its only (known) limitation is that it can't boost the volume of webpages which play DRM-protected content using JavaScript, such as Netflix and Spotify.

For information about how to use the extension and technical details, read the README.md file on its GitHub page
