Display power consumption on Apple Silicon Macs
PowerMetrix is a small app that displays Apple Silicon SOC power consumption.
It runs as a menulet in macOS menu bar. The icon displays current package consumption. Click the icon to display main window where consuption history is displayed and updated in real time every second.
When running PowerMetrix for the first time you will be asked to install its privileged helper tool. This is needed because Powermetrix is basically a GUI frontend for the macOS built-in /usr/bin/powermetrics tool, which requires root privileges to run.
Once helper is installed PowerMetrix will quit. Restart PowerMetrix.
System Requirements:
This release of PowerMetrix requires an Apple Silicon Mac running macOS 12 Monterey.
Intel Macs are not and will not be supported.
