How to listen to muted TVs in bars and at the gym using your phone 2026

So you’re sitting at a bar and you’re trying to watch a game, but all the audio is set to crappy music, or maybe it’s playing a different game that you really don’t care about. Or maybe you’re at home and want to keep the TV muted so your puppy doesn’t get woken up by the noise… here’s the answer!

Tunity is a free app that makes all of these problems go away. Because through its powers of magic, science, and technology, it allows you to

Hear any muted tv

Tunity developed the first mobile application of its kind which allows users to hear live audio from muted televisions. Through a patented deep learning and computer vision technology, Tunity identifies a live video stream and its exact timing, syncing the audio with the user’s mobile device.

That’s right. You read that correctly.

No more trying to read lips or the hilarious subtitles that someone is trying to quickly write while the commentators say hilarious things.

It really works, and it works well. I’ve used it for a while now!

Tunity usage example

Where can you use your phone to listen to muted TVs?

At a bar! I mean I know I mentioned this before but seriously… For the Men’s US Open final, all the audio at the bar I was at was on the Pats game. Now I hate Tom Brady as much as the next guy, but I wanted to hear Nadal grunt, so I popped an ear in and voila, grunt grunt grunt win! What a match by the way.

The gym! Some fancy gyms have ways for you to sync up with the TV, but mine certainly doesn’t. With Tunity I can hold my phone up, it scans, and suddenly I’ve got the audio in my ears while I run.

In bed! The complete opposite of the gym, but this will let you watch TV while your loved ones sleep! “Loved ones” or “Loved one”? Up to you!

Your doctor’s office! You don’t have to sit there watching in silence while the person next to you quietly coughs (by the way, get a flu jab now for free). You can be listening to noon tv!

Standing outside windows! Maybe you can SEE the TV but you can’t hear it. Problem solved!

But don’t do that. Don’t stand outside other peoples’ windows.
