Stats is a free, open-source macOS system monitor that lives in the menu bar, showing real-time CPU, GPU, RAM, disk, network, sensors, battery, Bluetooth, and clock information. It is a native Swift app supporting both Apple Silicon and Intel Macs, with customizable widgets and popups.

Use cases

  • monitor cpu usage in the mac menu bar
  • check gpu utilization and temperature on apple silicon
  • see memory pressure and top memory-consuming apps
  • track battery health and cycle count
  • view fan speeds and hardware temperature sensors
  • monitor network upload and download speeds
  • check bluetooth device battery levels
  • replace activity monitor with a lightweight menu bar tool

When to choose

  • you want a free, native macOS alternative to iStat Menus
  • you need glanceable system stats without opening Activity Monitor
  • you run Apple Silicon or Intel Macs on macOS 12 or newer
  • you want customizable menu bar widgets for hardware sensors

When to avoid

  • you need fan control - it is in legacy, unmaintained mode
  • you run a macOS beta version
  • you need cross-platform monitoring on Linux or Windows
  • you need deep historical analytics - the app focuses on live readings
