Review

Mar 11, 2026

Unclack is a macOS app designed to mute your keyboard while you type, preventing background noise during calls or recordings. It's ideal for remote workers, educators, or anyone needing a quiet environment while typing.

Mutes your keyboard automatically when you start typing and unmuting when you stop.

Maturity: The app has been around since 2021 with regular updates, showing consistent maintenance.

Community: Received significant attention on HN with a highly-rated post in 2021, but recent mentions are limited.

Pros

  • + Effectively prevents keyboard noise during calls or recordings
  • + Simple and automatic functionality with no manual intervention needed
  • + Niche use case but highly effective for its purpose

Cons

  • - No auto-update feature
  • - Lack of notifications or status indicators when active
