User Manual – Privacy Guide
Introduction
The PriveGuard USB-C Microphone Blocker helps protect your privacy by preventing apps or hackers from listening through your device's internal microphone. When plugged in, it simulates an external microphone connection, which automatically disables the built-in mic. No software, power, or setup is required — just plug and protect.
Compatibility
The PriveGuard USB-C Microphone Blocker works with most devices that have a USB-C port, including:
- Android smartphones and tablets
- MacBook and Windows laptops
- USB-C iPads and other modern tablets
⚠️ Not compatible with devices using Lightning or Micro-USB ports.
How to Use
Check your port: Make sure your device has a USB-C connector.
Insert the blocker: Gently plug the PriveGuard into the USB-C port.
Confirm detection: Your device may show a small "headset" or "microphone" icon — this means it's active.
Privacy enabled: The internal microphone is now disabled.
To restore audio use: Simply unplug the blocker before making calls, recording videos, or using voice assistants.
Tips & Troubleshooting
- No app needed: Works automatically — no installation or settings required.
- Phone cases: Remove or adjust bulky cases that may obstruct the USB-C port.
- Loose fit: If the blocker feels loose, check that it's fully inserted.
- Power: The device draws no electricity and contains no battery.
- When to remove: Unplug before any activity that needs microphone input (calls, voice notes, etc.).
- Cleaning: Wipe gently with a dry cloth; avoid moisture or cleaning sprays.
Conclusion
Your PriveGuard USB-C Microphone Blocker offers a simple, reliable way to protect your conversations and maintain privacy. Plug it in whenever you want peace of mind — unplug it when you're ready to speak.
