About SLW Cpu Widget

A (s)imple, (l)ight(w)eight cpu widget, that displays cpu load without the need of any permission. No ads. 100% fat free! Only 23 Kb small so it won't eat up your device storage space. It updates only once per minute to extend your battery life. You can force a refresh by pressing the widget. (It is also a button)
This is a widget so you need to drop it on your homescreen it is not an app.

There is a bug/feature on Android 4.x systems with widgets. If you can't see the widget in the widget list, try starting the App slw cpu app which only tells you: "you doing it wrong" after this you will see the widget in the widget list.

If you like more of those simple, lightweight widgets which only ask you for the permissions they realy need and don't fill up you phone with Megabytes of data even if they need to do only a small job then check out the other SLW widgets.

Good app. Measures processor output as it's supposed to. Nice small widget. Small download and no awkward permissions.

Updates not sufficient enough for diagnostic needs.

by H####:

not bad

B70%
by B####:

Is talkback accessible, just reads out the percentage that the cpu is being utilized. I was hoping it would report the cpu clock speed, that's my reason for knocking a star. This does what it says it does so that really isn't fair.

Just the application i wanted for my homescreen. Maybe using another chip icon-image, will make the app look like more proffesional

It makes me wonder the low rating of this widget, but as Einstein said " the more infinite than the universe is human stupidity", Christian don't let the facebook donkeys, brainless fashion slaves and dumb reality fans who assessed this widget negatively have an impact in your work, I'm sure they use Clean Master, Task Killers, Next Launcher and that kind of pretty crap.

First off, it works, it's free, and it's not adware, so it automatically gets 4 stars. However, it constantly replaces it's CPU percentage dialogue with "Error" and won't usually go back, except some times. However, the visual indicator always works, so it's not worthless. I hope the developer will add some periodic check to get rid of the error in the future.

It does it's job, however it glitches many times and there is no reload button on it. So when it glitches I need to put anther CPU widget on the screen which will make it reload again and thus give the proper number. - It needs an update on this.

Does what it says. doesnt eat up your cpu no lagg lightweight very useful necessary if you wonder alot how hard your cpu is working......;)

B70%
by B####:

That is just "Stupid" to just GUESS when the CPU is working hard or not.? Your obviously a NOOB to even say that, so your advice is now Invalid. You obviously know nothing about apps, so sshhhhh, be quite, LOL Of course it will use Cpu, so little it has NO EFFECT on the battery consumption what-so-ever, all it does is report, it's that simple!

K70%
by K####:

If you download this app then your probably quite cautious and worried about your cpu speeds and stuff this app will increase your cpu load ( regardless how minute they say it will). Personally would prefer to just guess when the CPU is working hard

C70%
by C####:

This is light on system resources that its difficult to even measure. Recommended to all my friends. This is one app dev to watch out for! Personally I would like to say thank you for this great widget.

Nice and simple.

Would give 5 stars if it had tap-to-refresh option. I find myself staring at it for too long to make sure processor drops to idle before turning my screen off

C70%
by C####:

I used it and put it on four phones, it help my with my battery life. I use it for a year already , :)

C70%
by C####:

Unnatural. I know that it's simple and light weight, but it's unnatural looking. When I scroll from page to page, it rolls over its placement, hard to explain, it moves out of place from where it should be when scrolling.
