### 5/5 — As good as an application can get!

*2026-08-13, version 7.0.2*

Works as advertised, receives updates for compatibility & bugfixes, and older versions support legacy devices well.
This application is worth the money. It's akin to System Profiler, Activity Monitor (for resource monitoring, iOS does not allow applications to see process info since iOS 8), and a lite version of Network Utility all in one iOS/iPadOS application.

### 5/5 — System status pro

*2026-08-12, version 7.0.2*

Great app for finding h/w use and system info.

### 5/5 — Great little app

*2026-08-10, version 7.0.2*

Worth every penny

### 5/5 — Does what it says

*2026-08-09, version 7.0.2*

I have used several system info apps on my iPhone and iPad over the years, and finally have settled on this one. Very detailed info & easy to use. I recommend it.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-08-08, version 7.0.2*

Informative

### 5/5 — Status success

*2026-07-30, version 7.0.2*

I love System Status! It provides a means to determine my connection and charging status immediately. I absolutely don’t know what I would do without it1

### 5/5 — Couldn't live without it.

*2026-07-27, version 7.0.2*

OK, I could live but having something that shows me the nuts and bolts of an otherwise closed system is very useful.

Couldn’t live without it, great company.

### 4/5 — Very Useful App

*2026-07-23, version 7.0.2*

This app is well worth the download.

### 4/5 — Works good to monitor the system

*2026-07-23, version 7.0.2*

Update: I’ve been using this since I bought it for my iPod touch more than 10 years ago. I think it’s a great app that provides a lot of info though it’s a bit technical for me and I don’t want it that much except when my phone is hot and I wanna see what’s you saying the system resources.

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2026-07-23, version 7.0.2*

This app works well and keeps the user aware of what resources their iPhone has available and what resources are already currently allocated. I have used this and the sister app Net Analyzer for years.

### 5/5 — Great App!

*2026-07-22, version 6.2.1*

Very helpful and informative app. A++

### 5/5 — Ole Faithful

*2026-07-20, version 7.0.2*

Had it for years and it never fails.

### 5/5 — Very Helpful App!

*2026-07-18, version 7.0.2*

Enjoy being able to see some key iOS metrics at a glance.  This app is well designed and information is provided in an easy-to-read format.

### 5/5 — An absolute necessity for any power user

*2026-07-14, version 7.0.2*

I’ve been using System Status Pro for a couple of years now and I couldn’t live without it on all my iOS devices. As an IT professional, I have to use multiple apps and also test many of them and as such, having easy access to all the technical information System Status Pro can give saves me a lot of time. Also, I regularly use the memory refresh function which is essential when I encounter problems with any apps or start noticing some lag.

I strongly recommend.

### 5/5 — Great App

*2026-07-13, version 7.0.2*

It does all that you need to keep your device working well.

### 4/5 — Essential tool

*2026-07-13, version 7.0.2*

I have used this product for years and I consider it an essential tool. 
Over the years it seems iOS memory management has gotten worse. I have had apps written by Apple crash (non responsive and sometimes closing themselves) on my iPhone. When apps seem to struggle i use this app to free up memory, and then magically everything works again. 

In the past I have given this app 5 stars. I have reduced it to 4 stars because occasionally this app also crashes. It never used to. I can tell it has crashed because the memory usage is completely static. It should be constantly jittering. 
The solution is to properly close the app and restart it. It’s a shame that this is necessary to do on occasion. Despite this, it is still an excellent app and I can’t do without it 
Thank you Status team.

### 4/5 — Better than necessary

*2026-07-12, version 7.0.2*

I don’t need to know half the stuff this app tells me, but it’s failing to tell me one thing I do want: What apps are running and consuming energy right now.

### 5/5 — Great solution to understand what’s going on

*2026-07-12, version 7.0.2*

I’m a long time regular user

### 5/5 — Excellent app

*2026-07-02, version 7.0.2*

Really useful. My iPhone reboots every so often, so being able to track the device uptime really helped when I raised the issue with Apple.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2026-07-17, version 7.0.2*

This app does nothing of value, get net analyzer instead. All of the non-network features of this app are useless.

The battery estimate feature isn’t even close to accurate and doesn’t read anything from the phone.

The cpu and memory monitors are also completely useless since all it does is show a graph, there’s nothing to drill down what apps are hogging resources like I expected.

### 1/5 — Poor, rude support

*2026-05-25, version 7.0.2*

Took off all my companies systems.

### 1/5 — Used to work very well.

*2026-04-23, version 7.0.2*

(Old review - Works very well, and gives me a lot more info than I have needed so far.)
Now I’m very unhappy.  I was just busy updating the OSes on some of my devices, and when I tried to run System Status Pro on my iPhone 13 Pro Max, so that I could record the boot time, it insisted on taking me to a page advertising its Network Analyzer instead.  Fortunately I still had the old System Status installed, and I used it to get the info I needed, but I really did not need the aggravation while I was updating OSes. I can no longer recommend this app.

### 1/5 — I’m going to get the kids some lunch and a little bit more lunch I don’t have a problem I’ll call th

*2025-11-03, version 7.0*

I have no idea how much I have done for the year but it was worth the money

### 1/5 — iPhone 17pro iOS26で使うと途中で落ちる

*2025-11-02*

メモリークリーニング中に途中で落ちるようになって使い物にならない。

### 1/5 — Improve the app!!

*2025-10-31*

I updated to version 26.1, but the app keeps crashing every time I clear memory!

**Developer response:** I've updated this feature a little in the 7.0.1 release which might (might not) help in your case. That said, I still don't recommend using this feature - iOS memory management should work just fine.

### 1/5 — Get

*2025-07-27, version 6.2.1*

5 stars

### 1/5 — Good!

*2025-04-13, version 6.1.1*

Could be improved and make it even more exciting and enjoyable!

### 1/5 — Abandoned, do not buy

*2024-10-24, version 6.0*

Has not been updated in a long time.  Not confident it will be updated in the future at all.  Do not buy!

### 1/5 — Useful.....

*2024-10-02, version 6.0*

One stop for system status and performance monitoring....

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Great for those who love knowing what's going on

*2026-08-30, version 7.0.2*

The greatest thing for me is the CPU utilization view. I can see at a glance if one or more apps are very busy draining my battery!

### 5/5 — A Must Have App

*2026-08-30, version 7.0.2*

I have used this app for over ten years.  While I know it can support many things beyond my needs,its ability to enable me to clear RAM space when I need it is extremely beneficial.

### 5/5 — One stop

*2026-08-30, version 7.0.2*

Can’t afford an Apple Watch but it even supports that too... I have an iPod, iPad & iPhones ... Works on all and provides all the status info I need ...

### 5/5 — George

*2026-08-26, version 7.0.2*

Works great

### 5/5 — Only App I’ve used for years to clean my RAM!

*2026-08-21, version 7.0.2*

This is the ONLY App that has ever worked to clear up memory space for my iPads.  Why Apple lets their RAM get so clogged up is beyond stupid.

### 5/5 — Great

*2026-08-21, version 7.0.2*

It's doesn't do anything except tell you everything you need to know about your device. Simply perfect.

### 5/5 — System status

*2026-08-21, version 7.0.2*

It provides all of the information needed to determine how my phone is operating!!

### 5/5 — Simple and Reliable

*2026-08-20, version 7.0.2*

Very good app. I’m a geek and always have liked looking at the specs and how devices perform and this app shows the info I want in a not-too-complicated design.

### 5/5 — Best

*2026-08-19, version 7.0.2*

This is the best System Status app hands-down. I’ve been using it forever.

### 5/5 — System Status Pro App works great.  5 Stars

*2026-08-19, version 7.0.2*

System Status Pro App works great.  You wont regret it. A good tool for the apple device toolbox.

This is an update to my previous review a few years ago.
I still love using the app.  It actually frees up memory which comes in handy when using tablet for extended games play.
