Hello,

Are there free iPhone’s iOS apps to view running processes’ in real time like top command in macOS’ and Linux’s terminals? I’d like to see the details of running processes in real time like
from their CPU, memory, etc. usages. I am using old iPhone 12 mini and 11 Pro Max with their iOS v18.7.2.

Thank you for reading and hopefully answering soon. :)

‎iSH Shell App - App Store Is the one I have used in the past, but there may be others. Just type “Terminal” in the App Store.

iSH doesn’t show any apps running in my iPhone. :/

I suspect the problem is related to top’s ability to show apps. IOS appears to have limited Linux capability compared to what we’re used to with macOS.

Correct. I forget exactly when it happened, but quite a while ago, there were changes in the iOS security model that broke a lot of system monitoring apps, including process management tools.
