## What it is
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
