介绍

"It is a must-have app for all Macs that will be used in school, library, and public places!"

As long as beQUIET is running, your Mac's internal speakers are muted. Meanwhile, you may still listen through your headphone jack. 
Simpto says, beQUIET only mutes your internal speakers in any condition. 

beQUIET is designed for journalists, teachers, students, and other Macbook users who want to hear the sound but do not want to disturb others, such as in meetings, classrooms, courts, lectures, and theaters. 

Benefiting from your Mac's high-end hardware design, beQUIET guarantees that your speakers stay quiet and your headphones work no matter if you plug or unplug your headphones!

This App is developed due to the request of a teacher who needed his computer lab to be quiet, but still, let the students enjoy the sound with their headphones.
