Looking in Activity Monitor shows components of iStat Menus not responding. For me though, Bjango do such a fantastic job and Bjango’s iStat Menus is such an everyday tool that it is just about the only app I am willing to pay a subscription for, and so I do.Įdit: I also should mention that Bjango offers a family pack for multiple macs that is great value ( can’t remember how many but think it was five) and a remote iStat monitoring tool as well. With regard to the weather features Bjango have added, they are certainly nice, but there are other menu bar weather apps that also work well and don’t charge a subscription. You can tell Bjango, the developers of the app love the Mac because of its capabilities and the way it is designed. The reported CPU utilization is constantly really low no matter what I do.

Those who don’t like how it crowds your menu bar can try iStat Pro, but if you want to have instant access to system activity data, iStat menu works well. Its temperature monitoring and fan speed management for my poor solder crippled GPU is used every day. iStat Menus 3 was released 22 April 2010. If you have an old Mac that is slowly dieing, but you want to keep her hobbling along until Apple finally releases an up to date properly flexible and functional replacement, then Bjango’s iStat Menus is indispensable.
