This application allows you to:
- Easy diagnostic problem processes that consume resources excessively.
- With Cool Tool you can monitor full-screen applications (games, video players, browsers).
- Monitor your Internet traffic without closing the browser window.
- Make your battery level always visible, with accurate percentage scale.
- Monitor how good your CPU governor switches between CPU frequencies in idle/stresses

Tips:
Customize the appearance of the panel using color picker dialogs. Also you can adjust transparency and size of the panel in Sliders section.
Tons of gauges could drain your battery very quickly. Uncheck the features that you do not need. Btw, Cool Tool went to sleep and do not draw anything when your display turns off. It is for power save.

ps: If you want to help me localize app into your native language, let me know.

Ratings and reviews

Great app! Would be better if it had the option to be a widget or a side loading drawer or even a persistent notification with a couple of starts always in the notification tray, just so it's not always in the way of other apps. Certain apps, this always being on top is great. But for other apps, it gets in the way. just those options would be awesome

If you get the pro version you get no more ads. So search for cool tool Pro. I'd like to be able to reposition the temperature reading in the status bar more than center. Otherwise this is an excellent. I gave the school to Pro app five stars.

10 thumbs up!! This has been the most essential tool for monitoring hardware. It has Guages such as: wifi, cellular strength, gps, CPU, Battery level, temperature, I/o, current (mAh), audio VU, network, network traffic, ram, SD card, storage. The tool can be resized, repositioned, and offers color customization. This tool is essential to monitor your device! I've used this for 10 years since android 2.3 gingerbread days. WISHLIST; Please add GPU meter! :)
