AnotherMonitor

IMPORTANT NOTICE for Android 7.0+ devices

----------------------------------------------------------------------

In Android 7.0 Google has made undocumented changes and has significantly restricted access to the proc file system. This means that since this new API level it is not possible anymore to retrieve processes info. AnotherMonitor running on devices with Android 7.0 will only show total CPU usage, AnotherMonitor CPU usage and memory usage, but not CPU usage for other processes. Running the app on a rooted device does not make difference.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

AnotherMonitor shows the device CPU and memory status in real time.

It has two main options:

- It shows a chart and several labels wherein the values of the CPU and memory usage are updated every 0.5, 1, 2 or 4 seconds.

- It can record on a CSV file the read values for a later usage on a spreadsheet program.

When AnotherMonitor is running on the background it consumes little resources. Then it can monitor and record the CPU and memory usage of other applications on the foreground.

In order to get the CPU usage the app does not make use of the 'Top' command from Linux but instead it parses the '/proc/stat' file and work the calculations out with the user and system time.

Don't forget to leave your feedback. It will help to improve the app day by day.
