This free application displays essential metrics such as CPU and GPU frequencies, temperatures, battery current, and network speed. Users can customize the app's appearance, opting for either a large vertical view or a smaller horizontal one, allowing it to blend seamlessly with their current activities. Notably, it operates with minimal permissions and is free from advertisements, enhancing user experience without distractions.

A standout feature of CpuFloat is its ability to overlay system information on top of any app, facilitating multitasking.

Developer’s Description

CpuFloat is a floating app which monitors several key pieces of system information so you can monitor your device without leaving the application.

CpuFloat is a floating app which monitors several key pieces of system information so you can monitor your device without leaving the application you are using.

CpuFloat monitors:

Cpu frequency

Cpu temperature

Gpu frequency

Gpu load; not normalised

Gpu temperature

Time awake and in deep sleep

Battery current

Battery temperature

Network speed

Time

This counts the time your gadget has been active and in deep sleep, a battery friendly state. Sometimes apps dont let your device go into deep sleep, this will shorten the battery time.

Temperature

If available the cpu and gpu temperature are shown. If not available you can choose the temperature sensor in the settings. This has been extensively tested on Qualcomm socs. On other socs this might not work as intended.

Cpu and gpu Trippoint

If the temperature gets higher than the trippoint temperature, itll turn red. You can change the value of the trippoint temperature in the settings.

Flexibility

You can choose what to monitor and where to show the floating window. CpuFloat can be a big vertical floating view with lots of information or a smaller, less intrusive horizontal view.

CpuFloat is a compact system tool with minimal permissions; vibrate, read sdcard, draw over other apps. There are no ads and it doesnt use internet data.

Notice about changing app permissions on android M (6) and up :

Because of security reasons you can only change app permissions if there are no screen overlays or floating apps running, else youll get this error message:

Screen overlay detected.

To change this permission setting, you first have to turn off the screen overlay from Settings > Apps.

Just exit CpuFloat and try again, if it still doesnt work, theres another app using a screen overlay.
