mectrics Alternatives

mectrics is described as 'Puts the readings you pick into the macOS menu bar: CPU, memory, battery, network, disk, GPU, temperature and fans. Clicking an item opens a popover with the detail behind the number, like per core load and top processes for CPU, or read and write throughput for disk' and is an app in the system & hardware category. There are five alternatives to mectrics for Mac and iPhone. The best mectrics alternative is Stats, which is both free and Open Source. Other great apps like mectrics are iStat Menus, Activity Monitor, Task Manager for macOS and MacMetra.
