Added

  • A redesigned dashboard: a sidebar with every metric under Overview, and a page for each one.
    • CPU: usage and temperature charts, every core (performance and efficiency), load average, top apps.
    • GPU, memory (app, wired, compressed, cached, swap), disk (space and read/write activity), network
      (interfaces, totals since boot), sensors and fans.
    • This Mac: model, chip, cores, displays, macOS build, uptime, battery health, storage, and Copy Specs.
  • Pick the time range for every chart: 1 minute, 5, 15, 30 minutes, or 1 hour, with min, average and max.
  • Search apps, sensors and sections from the dashboard toolbar.
  • A Settings window (⌘,) with General, Menu Bar, Panel, Dashboard, Units and About tabs:
    • Reorder menu bar stats, choose icon/value per stat, decimal places, and warning colors.
    • Choose and reorder the panel's cards, the number of top apps and the sparkline length.
    • Default time range, chart style, temperature overlay, and average or hottest CPU temperature.
    • Storage in GB or GiB, network in bytes or bits.
    • A global keyboard shortcut to open the dashboard.
    • Appearance (system, light, dark) and Restore Defaults.
  • Optional update checks against GitHub releases, with install and relaunch. Off by default.
  • New icon, logo and colors.

Changed

  • CPU and GPU temperature sensors are read less often when only the menu bar needs them.

Install: unzip, drag Sonar.app into Applications (replace the old one), and open it. Sonar isn't notarized, so the first time macOS will block it: go to System Settings → Privacy & Security and click Open Anyway.

Requires macOS 14+ on Apple silicon.
