The Bloks Minibar is your visual cue that a conversation is being captured. It appears automatically anytime Bloks begins capturing from your devices audio inputs and outputs—either through Auto-Start or manual activation—across supported platforms like Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, Slack, and more.
What is the Minibar?
The minibar is a small floating widget that appears on your screen and always stays on top of your windows. It lets you know that Bloks is actively capturing a conversation.
Key Features of the Minibar

Tip for New Users
If you ever see the minibar unexpectedly, it’s likely that Auto-Start has detected a live conversation. This ensures Bloks never misses a moment—while still giving you full control to stop or pause it anytime.
