Strain
What's slowing your Mac, in plain English. Plus the switches you reach for.
Strain sits in the menu bar and names the app behind a slowdown in one line: memory pressure, swap, CPU and disk, each process explained. It frees the space your tools rebuild on their own, lists every local server and login item, and puts Wi-Fi, AirDrop, quick macOS fixes and external display brightness and volume one click away. Swift, no dependencies, no network calls.
