System Stats

Live Mac stats on your shelf

Watch your Mac's vitals live in the notch: two stat cards with big percentages and rolling history graphs. Choose any two of CPU, RAM, GPU, and disk, and tune how often they sample. Sampling only runs while the widget is on screen, so it never drains your battery in the background.

What it does

  • Live CPU, RAM, GPU, disk, battery, and network
  • Rolling history graph for every stat
  • Pick two cards, or show all six with Superstats
  • Samples only while the widget is open

How to use it

  1. Pick the two stats you want as cards from CPU, RAM, GPU, disk, battery and network. Picking the one already on the other side swaps the two.
  2. Turn on Superstats to show all six at once instead of two.
  3. Set how often the cards sample. Sampling stops entirely when the shelf closes.

Where it shows up

  • Shelf widget
  • Global shortcut
  • Droppy for iPhone

Workflows

Find out what is eating the fan

Open the shelf, watch the CPU and GPU history graphs for a few seconds, and you know whether it is compute or something else before you open Activity Monitor.

Tips

  • Because it only samples while the widget is on screen, leaving it configured costs nothing when the shelf is shut.
  • Every stat carries a rolling history graph, not just a number, which is what makes a spike distinguishable from a load.
  • The phone shows a snapshot per sync rather than a live graph, by design.
