Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about CalmStat's features, performance, and privacy.

Does CalmStat upload my data?

No. All analytics run locally on your Mac. Your system data never leaves your device. Telemetry is completely opt-in, giving you full control over your privacy.

Can I monitor temperature & fan speeds?

Yes! Temperature sensors and fan speeds are available through our direct build's plugin system. Get detailed thermal monitoring for both Intel and Apple Silicon Macs.

Does it 'clean memory' like booster apps?

We don't use unverifiable tricks or aggressive memory purging. Instead, CalmStat explains what's using your resources and suggests safe, effective actions you can take.

Will it drain my battery?

CalmStat is designed for efficiency. Typical idle CPU usage is under 0.3% thanks to our adaptive sampling technology that adjusts monitoring frequency based on system activity.

Which macOS versions are supported?

CalmStat supports macOS 12 Monterey and newer. Both Apple Silicon (M1/M2/M3) and Intel processors are fully supported with optimized performance for each architecture.

What's the difference between App Store and direct versions?

The Mac App Store version includes core features. The direct build adds plugin support, automatic updates, and advanced customization options not allowed in the App Store.
