Alerts for low or muted device audio

Discover when you've gone silent before others do. Trident will now alert you if your device microphone or speaker volume is too low or muted during calls and meetings. (Available on Windows)

This helps you archive, share, and manage emails more effectively. (Available on Mac and Windows) 

Steer clear of emails with suspicious URLs
