Some apps on Windows 11 can be louder than others. Luckily, there's a way to reduce the volume for each app to balance things out. Quantrimang.com will show you how to do it using Volume Mixer.
How does setting volume for individual apps help?
Adjusting volume for each app allows you to control the loudness of one app without affecting other apps. That way, you can tailor your audio experience to your liking.
Let’s say you’re playing a game with friends and using Discord to communicate. You can easily lower the game volume using Volume Mixer to hear everyone better. Another example is if you’re working while listening to music and the notification sounds from WhatsApp or another messaging app keep interrupting you. Lowering the system volume will also lower the music volume and turning on Do Not Disturb mode isn’t ideal.
These are just a few practical cases, but you may encounter other situations where prioritizing the volume of one app over another is useful. This is especially true if the app you want to mute doesn't have a built-in volume control.
How to set volume for each application using Volume Mixer
You can access the Volume Mixer in Quick Settings. Press Win + A to open it and click the speaker icon to the right of the volume slider.
You can find the app volume slider by scrolling down to the Volume Mixer section. Move the slider to increase or decrease the volume of a specific app.
If you prefer a more old-fashioned approach to setting volume for each app, you can also use the classic Volume Mixer instead.
How to set output device for each application using Volume Mixer
You can also use Volume Mixer to change the audio output device of each app. This allows music to be played using a Bluetooth speaker while app notifications use the system speaker.
Press Win + I , go to System > Sound and click Volume Mixer under Advanced.
Next, scroll down to the Apps section to see the volume controls for each app. Click the down arrow for the app, then click the Output Device drop-down menu .
Select a different audio device from the list of connected devices. That app's audio output will now come from that device.
If you adjust the volume of that application in Volume Mixer, it will only affect the volume of that output device. Unfortunately, Volume Mixer cannot increase the volume of an application above 100%. However, you can use a volume booster app to increase the volume above the maximum.

Good luck!
