But if you want to switch between different devices, you may need some assistance finding the settings.<\/p>\n<p>Suppose you\u2019ve got a new headset or camera, and you want to use them when you\u2019re on Chrome. With remote work and learning, there are lots of in-browser solutions that require your camera and microphone \u2014 Google Meet, for example. You may have already granted these sites permission to access your devices, but you\u2019ll want to adjust your settings to the new ones, just in case. Here\u2019s how you do that.<\/p>\n<p>First \u2014 and this may sound obvious but indulge me \u2014 make sure your new camera and microphone are plugged in and set up. The settings are a little hard to find, as they might not be in the place you\u2019d expect to find them. Go to your Chrome settings, and then find the \u201cPrivacy and Security\u201d option on the left.<\/p>\n<p><figure class=\"post-image post-mediaBleed aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1323230 lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2020\/10\/Chrome-Mic-Camera-2.jpg\" alt width=\"514\" height=\"586\" sizes=\"(max-width: 514px) 100vw, 514px\" data-lazy=\"true\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2020\/10\/Chrome-Mic-Camera-2.jpg 514w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2020\/10\/Chrome-Mic-Camera-2-184x210.jpg 184w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2020\/10\/Chrome-Mic-Camera-2-237x270.jpg 237w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2020\/10\/Chrome-Mic-Camera-2-118x135.jpg 118w\"><\/figure>\n<\/p>\n<p>Once you\u2019ve done this, find \u201cSite settings\u201d on the list, and it\u2019ll take you to a list of various permissions and content settings for the sites you\u2019ve visited. Under permissions, see \u201cCamera\u201d and \u201cMicrophone.\u201d Clicking on either of these will take you to yet another list, this time of the sites that have access to those devices. At the top of that list, you\u2019ll see the device you\u2019re currently using listed. Clicking on this will get you a dropdown menu of the devices currently available. Select the device you\u2019re currently using to set every site on Chrome to it.<\/p>\n<p><figure class=\"post-image post-mediaBleed aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1323231 lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2020\/10\/Chrome-Mic-Camera-1.jpg\" alt width=\"450\" height=\"446\" sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" data-lazy=\"true\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2020\/10\/Chrome-Mic-Camera-1.jpg 450w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2020\/10\/Chrome-Mic-Camera-1-96x96.jpg 96w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2020\/10\/Chrome-Mic-Camera-1-212x210.jpg 212w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2020\/10\/Chrome-Mic-Camera-1-272x270.jpg 272w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2020\/10\/Chrome-Mic-Camera-1-136x135.jpg 136w\"><\/figure>\n<\/p>\n<p>A benefit to these settings is that you can control which sites have access to your microphone or camera. On the same menus you can see a list of sites you\u2019ve previously given access to your camera and microphone, and you can delete the permission by clicking the trash can next to the site.<\/p>\n<p>And that\u2019s it! Now you can change which microphone and camera you\u2019re using in Chrome.
