### 4/5 — [FIXED!] Home Screen Widgets Display Incompletely After Recent Update

*2024-12-22, version 3.1.8*

Edit: Fixed and very quickly, great job!

Widgets on the home screen, at least on iPadOS 18.2, now display with a blank border, cutting off/truncating information instead of filling the entire widget area as in previous versions. It would be nice if this could be fixed.

### 3/5 — Home Screen Widgets Display Incompletely After Recent Update

*2024-12-17*

Widgets on the home screen, at least on iPadOS 18.2, now display with a blank border, cutting off/truncating information instead of filling the entire widget area as in previous versions. It would be nice if this could be fixed.

**Developer response:** Already fixed

### 4/5 — Update Needed

*2024-10-24*

This app, because of what it’s used for, should be updated quarterly. Apple releases new devices every year.

### 4/5 — Screen Compatibility

*2023-06-19, version 3.1.6*

Perhaps decrease the font size when nearing the screen’s edge.

Now it seems that for some smaller models I cannot fit all the info text in one horizontal line.

### 4/5 — overall good

*2023-05-04, version 3.1.6*

needs to the gpu on most phones and ipad

### 4/5 — Good app to keep tabs on performance

*2021-09-21, version 3.1*

…but where are the widgets? I have the updated version but I don’t have an option for widgets anymore. 

 EDIT: The widgets work on my iPad, but still no option for them on my iPhone (11 Pro Max). Oh, and both devices are running iOS 15 (iPadOS 15)

EDIT AGAIN: Now the widgets are appearing hmm…

### 2/5 — I loved the previous version of it.

*2021-07-05, version 3.0*

I preferred the previous version of the app. I’m not happy with the current version on iPhone 8+.The graphic looks very clunky now. Not easy to decipher.

### 2/5 — Outdated

*2021-03-30, version 2.2*

Please update for IOS 14

### 2/5 — used used this app for a while

*2020-03-13, version 2.2*

it doesn’t show what the model of my new ipad except its unknown model. i don’t recommend this app to anybody anymore!

### 3/5 — used to be

*2020-03-11, version 2.2*

Loved this app.  have had for many years but I went from an iPhone 4S to an iPhone 8 and an iPad fifth generation neither of these is covered I wish you would update and I know many other people do Also.

### 4/5 — No support for 2017 iPad

*2019-08-24, version 2.2*

Great app but it should support newer devices. It hasn’t been updated since the iPhone 7 came out!

### 2/5 — Two Years Old

*2018-10-23, version 2.2*

Support stopped after the iPhone SE. I have the iPhone 8 now and there's no information for this model or anything after it.

### 4/5 — Left to dust ?

*2018-10-19, version 2.2*

This is a very good app, does what it says but it is not updated with the new devices! Hope it gets for it to be a 5 stars app. Do it guys, your work is great!

### 3/5 — Update

*2018-09-21, version 2.2*

I was wondering if you guys are going to update this and include the new iPhone XS/XR Models??? Thanks

### 2/5 — Needs annual updates

*2018-03-23, version 2.2*

Still a little useful but needs updating to include iPhones and iPads released in 2017. It would be nice to include Apple Watch and Apple TV too. Third generation is 3rd, not 3th.

### 2/5 — Great app

*2018-03-02, version 2.2*

Please update it for newer iPhones

### 1/5 — Update the app

*2024-06-21, version 3.1.6*

Update the app

### 1/5 — No Privacy Policy page

*2022-12-20, version 3.1.6*

UPDATE 12/20/22: 

WOW! What an eye-popping, cherry-picked, gas-lit, and suss privacy policy update! 

It wants to sound as if they don’t collect or read any personal data- and it tries hard to do so with a little bit of tap dancing and by incorporating a potential need for translation of a Cyrillic language in the American App Store- but for some reason they manage not to state that they “don’t collect or read any data” or even mention analytics. 

Look, I’m sorry if their intentions are sincere. I really am. But, today you just can’t trust a smile any more than you can trust a hastily written policy. 

I kinda feel both here, and it feels a bit creepy. 

————————————  

The link to the privacy policy website takes you to a page saying that the server cannot be found. At this point, they could promise the App Store (and us) anything. I don’t know about you, but I have to let this one go and find something else to use. I can’t trust this app, and I doubt Apple or anyone else should either- not without some kind of official privacy statement. Bye!✌🏼

### 1/5 — privacy policy problem

*2022-12-12, version 3.1.6*

first, there’s a problem with the privacy link.. you cannot connect. they fixed it but boy, look at their privacy policy. ARE YOU KIDDING ME? DEVELOPERS WITH POLICIES LIKE THIS SHOULD BE AVOIDED.

### 1/5 — Broken App

*2022-06-17, version 3.1.3*

Opens to a blank white screen on my iPhone SE Gen3 via iOS 15.5.  Probably to protect me from scary Mother Russia or something, cuz it’s 2022 and why not.

### 1/5 — Drop support for a previous iOS version?

*2021-08-21, version 3.1*

It really doesn’t make any sense since iOS 14 is the current version. 
That would be like a gas station saying we only sell gas to cars made in 2021. 
Apple is still supporting iOS 12, their last update was in June of this year if you didn’t know.

### 1/5 — Stopped development

*2019-10-24, version 2.2*

Stopped being developed when the iPhone 7 came out......NO new models listed and VERY limited info available via this app.
Almost useless in its current guise.

### 1/5 — actmonitor

*2019-10-10, version 2.2*

how about an update  its 2 years old does not even show my ipad pro 10.5 
if your not updating please advise, ill delete.

### 1/5 — Dead app?

*2019-08-28, version 2.2*

IPhone 7 is the “newest”. Newer iPhones are not identified.

### 1/5 — Dont buy in-app purchases!

*2018-11-10, version 2.2*

Spent $.99 to compare hardware specs to other models. Unfortunately I didn’t realize it hasn’t been updated since the iPhone 7, so it’s useless. It looks like the devs have abandoned this app.

### 1/5 — No running processes!

*2016-08-25, version 2.1*

What a waste of money i bought this to see what processes are running. Screenshot shows this. Doesn't exist! 1star.

### 5/5 — Great

*2025-04-04, version 3.1.10*

Easy to use. Clean layout. Lots of info and ability to compare different devices. 5 Stars ⭐️

### 5/5 — A Wealth of Useful Information

*2021-12-27, version 3.1.3*

I need some information about my iPad Pro and did a little research to find suggestions for getting system information from the device itself. ActMonitor is a common suggestion, and for good reason. I see some dissatisfaction exists, but I’m grateful to the developer for providing ActMonitor. I join those who recommend the app elsewhere and highly recommend it to anyone wanting or needing detailed information about their iOS device. Super useful product.

### 5/5 — Simple, meats basic daily needs

*2020-03-29, version 2.2*

I have it on my iPhone 6s & iPAD pro. Quite useful to check charge level (large screen) and to see free memory.  If free memory would is very low, Apple IOS is non responsive, or hangs, This allows monitoring that situation, but effective.

Program is simple

### 5/5 — Hi

*2019-08-26, version 2.2*

I hope the developer to update the program and add new versions of devices because it is a useful and beautiful program

### 5/5 — Cool, needs an update.

*2019-07-19, version 2.2*

Really good app with friendly user interface. Would be great if you could update the compare tab with the latest models of iPhone (at the moment it only goes up to 7). Especially since this is a paid feature, and would be nice to compare my iPhone 7 with, say, the iPhone XS. 

Thanks

### 5/5 — Had to download because of apple saying that they slowed down their own phones.

*2017-12-28, version 2.2*

I have not tried this app yet but hopefully I see some results why my phone is slower than before the update apple did to slow down peoples phones.

### 5/5 — Good app

*2017-11-20, version 2.2*

Dear Admin,

Please update information of iPhone 8, iPhone 8 Plus, iPhone X...

Thank you very much :-)

### 5/5 — Very nice app

*2016-05-16, version 2.1*

Very nice app

### 5/5 — Blame Apple, not dev

*2016-04-12, version 2.1*

Apple removed ability for apps to see processes running. Don't blame the developers.

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2015-11-02, version 2.1*

Nice easy interface, I use it whenever I want to quickly check my remaining storage or memory.
