User reviews

CPU Stats is a lightweight, ad-free app highly valued for monitoring CPU usage and frequency across multiple cores with customizable update intervals. However, users report persistent notification icons that cannot be easily disabled, device compatibility issues notably on OnePlus phones and newer Android versions, and inconsistencies in frequency and CPU usage accuracy. Additionally, the app reportedly consumes significant power at times, has limited update rate options, lost color indicators in recent versions, and lacks regular updates, impacting stability and functionality on modern devices.

Pros

Lightweight and fast CPU monitoring app.
No ads, providing a clean user experience.
Customizable update intervals for CPU stats.
Supports monitoring CPU usage and frequency for multiple cores.
Runs well on a variety of devices and Android versions (though some issues exist).

Cons

Notification icon/monitor in status bar persists even when disabled and requires uninstall/reinstall to remove.
Incompatibility and malfunction issues with certain devices, particularly OnePlus phones and newer Android versions like Android 9 and above.
CPU frequency display is inconsistent or inaccurate; sometimes only shows one core or switches between cores improperly.
App consumes significant battery/power, especially when phone is asleep.
Lack of updates and support affects functionality on newer devices and Android releases; crashes and stops working on some devices.
Limited polling rate options; update intervals can be slower than selected and may freeze.
Lost color display in notifications in newer Android versions, reducing visual clarity.
CPU usage monitoring only fully functional on Android 7 or earlier or rooted devices, potentially misleading users.

Hi there! App is working well ever since. Unfortunately on my Pixel 8 the CPU frequency is not working. Shows 2.3GHz for some time, then the status icon disappears. Is it possible to fix this bug? (Android 14)

Ph*****, 2024-07-05

How do I turn off the status bar monitor icon? Even if I uncheck and exit it's still there, I'll have to uninstall and reinstall when I want to use it? Other than that seems good. Edit: What I mean is even if I uncheck all the boxes in the app and exit the app the monitor continues to monitor, the icon and quick settings cpu info. Until I uninstall.
