Fennec is a free, open-source menu-bar app for macOS that detects audio crackling issues caused by Mac audio service failures and automatically restarts the coreaudiod service to repair sound without closing running apps. It operates under macOS 14.2 or later on Apple silicon Macs, respects ongoing audio usage like calls or recordings, and logs repair actions locally without telemetry.
