Questions

Is the microphone recording my class?

No. The meter only reads the current volume level in your browser. No audio is stored or sent anywhere.

Does it work on a smartboard?

Yes. Open it in the board's browser or project your laptop and use Full screen.

Why does the meter need permission?

Browsers always ask before a page can use a microphone. Allow it once for this site.
