What is it?

Stats is a macOS system monitor that lives in the menu bar. Each metric, such as CPU, GPU, memory, disk, network, battery, sensors and Bluetooth devices, can be enabled as its own module and shown as a compact icon or widget with a detail popup on click.

It also includes a multi-timezone clock and sensor readings for temperature, voltage and power. Stats supports macOS 12 (Monterey) and newer, and is installed via a DMG download or Homebrew. A headless install script sets up remote monitoring that streams metrics to a System Stats account.

The project is MIT-licensed and does not collect telemetry. Its only external requests are for update checks and retrieving the public IP address. Fan control is in legacy mode and no longer receives updates.
