How to Use the Volume Booster Feature in Helperbird

Learn how to use the volume booster feature. Make website audio louder for better hearing Support accessibility for everyone.

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.

This extension has been an absolute lifesaver. I have that fantastic combo of ADHD and Dyslexia while trying to go through college. I have difficulty keeping letters in order, seeing the gaps between words, and with ADHD on top, I lose focus A LOT. The immersive reader has been my new best friend. It drowns out the rest of the content on the page, changes the font to something I can read, and highlights the word as it reads to me. My eyes are forced to keep going in the right direction. I can slow down and pay attention to what I'm reading. I don't even have to go back and read the same paragraph 5 times to understand it! The screen overlay has been outstanding for eye strain and being able to distinguish between words and spaces. The custom font and spacing for research articles have been an enormous advantage! I can actually read the research papers now and not have this daunting 2 column fine print page to squint over.All around, this has been the best purchase I've ever had. I use this every day, with every assignment. I don't even struggle with story-based questions anymore. The immersive reader helps me read, listen, and understand the question all at once. I am still exploring what I can use this with and how it can make my academic career, and I keep getting impressed with every new way I find to use it. Seriously, try it out. You won't regret it at all. Even if you don't have dyslexia or ADHD, just try it out. You might find that it helps you understand the content you're trying to learn even better!

Helperbird helps enhance my studying and research efforts by allowing me to add sticky notes and highlight important stuff on websites, or e-books. I can also easily remember to read articles later.
