What is Volume Booster?

Volume Booster increases the audio volume beyond what the website normally allows. Even when a video is at maximum volume and it is still too quiet, Volume Booster can make it louder.

You can increase volume up to 600% of the original level.


Who is This For?

This feature is helpful for:

  • People with hearing difficulties who need louder audio
  • Anyone watching videos that have quiet audio
  • People in noisy environments who need to hear over background noise
  • Anyone whose device speakers are too quiet
  • People who struggle to hear spoken content

Step 1: Open Helperbird

Click the Helperbird icon in your browser toolbar. It looks like a small owl and is usually in the top-right corner of your browser.

This will open the Helperbird menu.


Step 2: Open the All Features Section

Scroll down to the bottom of the Helperbird menu. You will see a section called All Features.

Click the arrow next to All Features to expand it and show all available features.


Step 3: Find Media Options

Look through the list of features until you see Media options.


Step 4: Open Media Options

Click on Media options to open it.

A panel will appear showing the media-related settings you can adjust.


Step 5: Turn on Volume Booster

In the Media options panel, look for Volume booster.

Click the toggle switch next to it to turn it on. The toggle will turn green when it is enabled.


Step 6: Adjust the Volume

Once Volume booster is turned on, a slider will appear below the toggle.

Drag the slider to the right to increase the volume. The percentage shows how much the volume is boosted above the normal maximum.

  • 100% means normal maximum volume
  • 200% means twice as loud as normal
  • 600% means six times as loud as normal

The volume change applies immediately to any audio or video on the page.

Warning: Be careful with very high volume levels, especially when using headphones. Very loud audio can damage your hearing. Start with a small increase and gradually adjust until you can hear comfortably.

Helperbird is an excellent extension supporting a range of learning differences. Aside from providing many evidence-based dyslexia-assistive tools, the extension also functions as an easy-to-use, feature-rich web experience customization tool suitable to support a wide range of cognitive differences (i.e., color blindness and ADHD-related focus concerns, among others). Also, the developer is a very good person who supports the various learning-different communities in many ways, including by designing the free version of Helperbird to provide enough functionality to be beneficial to people who cannot afford to subscribe to the full-function version.

I got this tool as an extension to try out first of all. I was amazed at what it can do in terms of accessibility. I have shown my friends and brother who suffer from dyslexia and they have all downloaded the extension. Great step forward from a company looking to help people!!
