Add Real-Time Microphone Audio-Level Indicator During Screen Recording

Add Real-Time Microphone Audio-Level Indicator During Screen Recording

Hi Zoho WorkDrive Team,
Hope you are doing well.

We would like to request an important enhancement to the Zoho WorkDrive screen-recording experience.

Current Limitation:
During a recording session, there is no visual indication that the microphone is working.
Users have no way to confirm:

  1. Whether their microphone is active
  2. Whether audio is being captured
  3. Whether the input volume is too low, too high, or muted
  4. Whether the selected microphone is functioning properly

This often results in recordings that appear successful - only to discover afterward that the audio was muted or not captured at all, requiring the user to redo the entire recording.

Feature Request:
Please add a real-time microphone audio-level indicator (similar to Zoom, Google Meet, Loom, etc.) to either: the Camera Overlay ir the Recording Controls.

This indicator should show a moving audio bar (green/yellow/red) that reacts to the user’s voice in real time.

Why this is extremely important
  1. Prevents silent or unusable recordings
  2. Gives immediate feedback that the microphone is functioning
  3. Helps users identify incorrect microphone selection
  4. Ensures audio volume levels are appropriate
  5. Saves significant time by avoiding re-recording sessions
  6. Creates a more professional and reliable recording workflow

A simple live audio meter would dramatically improve confidence and prevent common audio issues.

Thank you very much for considering this improvement.
Warm regards,
Ram
