## What is FPS Logger?

READ BEFORE BUYING: Please expand this description and read the full details of Metal HUD Compatibility on iPhone, iPad and Apple TV.

FPS Logger for iPhone, iPad and Apple TV is a companion app. It requires FPS Logger for Mac, running on the same Wi-Fi network. You cannot enable Metal Performance HUD locally on iPhone, iPad or Apple TV. Both apps must be open at the same time — to launch apps with Metal HUD and to access the online server.

WHAT IT DOES
• See apps installed on your device 
• Launch a game with the Metal Performance HUD enabled
• See real-time frame rate, frame time, GPU and memory stats on the device screen
• See Metal HUD compatibility for games via online server database
• HUD customisation — metric presets, position and scale
