One of the signs of being a geek is constantly monitoring how much your device’s battery, RAM, or CPU is being used by the Android system. Is it maxed out or not enough? In this article, we will introduce you to the best Android apps that allow you to beautifully visualize your phone’s battery, RAM, CPU level, and other important details on your home screen. Here are some. So, without further ado, here are the 5 best Android apps to visualize your battery, RAM, and CPU.

1. Energy bar

Energy Bar is a nice little app that displays your phone’s battery level in the form of a colorful linear strip on your status bar. Here’s a screenshot to understand what it does.

This linear strip gives you a quick overview of your phone’s battery level. Now, let’s dig a little deeper into the app and check out the other features it offers.

Next, let’s talk about the features. You can set the bar type and even get a fully covered status bar instead of a linear strip, as shown below. This status bar style is only available with developer pack in-app purchases.

Additionally, you can choose the style of the strip. You can change from segment style to gradient style for a more immersive experience. And of course, you can freely change the color of the strip.

Apart from that, you will also see a cool charging animation . You can change it according to your preference. Also, a nice feature that I really liked is that you can display this colorful strip on top of your full-screen app . So, for example, if you’re playing a full-screen game or watching a movie in portrait mode, you can easily know how much battery life you have left.

2. Power lines

Powerline is very similar to Energy Bar in terms of usage. A colorful linear strip appears in the status bar. However, with Powerline you have even more options to choose from. While you could only get the remaining battery power in the Energy Bar, here you can check the status of various parameters. Things like RAM, CPU, WiFi, storage, and even battery temperature .

Apart from various options, you can also set multiple indicators on the status bar. In addition to the status bar, you can also set it to the top, bottom right, or left edge of the screen. First, tap the + icon and select Indicators. However, there are only two indicators to choose from in the free version.

Once you select an indicator, you can tap the indicator to further customize its color, position, and more. You can change the style, transparency, width, and alignment as shown below. You can also make these strips appear in full-screen apps and games, just like energy bars.

The app allows you to create your own indicators by simply tapping the + icon, or use the indicators provided by default.

You can create a profile and give it a name and description. Then you can set the layout. The layout allows you to change the position along with the width and height.
