A menu bar system monitor that tells you when to look
Updated 7 October 2026
Choose which readings sit in your menu bar (processor, memory, pressure, network, disk, graphics, battery, temperature, fan, and memory you could free) in one item or one each, as numbers, live graphs or both. Click it for a dropdown with the verdict, live readings and what's using the most. A mark lights up when something needs you.
What you see
- Readings your way: pick, order and combine them.
- The dropdown: how your Mac is doing in a sentence, with the fix one click away.
- Light on your Mac: it samples every 2 seconds while you're looking and every 5 while you're not.

Questions
Can I hide the readings and keep just the icon?
Yes. The icon alone still lights up when something needs you.
