What Pro adds
The free direct build already shows you what is eating your memory — per app and per renderer process, with current vs. peak. Pro is the half that acts on it.
- Threshold rules — "ChatGPT over 6 GB for 5 minutes → suspend". Off by default; it never acts on anything you didn't set up.
- Focus Mode — freeze a batch of background apps in one click and hand the memory to what you're actually using. Exit and everything resumes.
- Gentle restarts — the worst offender is asked to quit normally, so it gets its chance to save, and is then relaunched.
- Action history — every action logged with the measured before/after, so you can check what it actually did.
Questions
Is this a subscription? No. One payment, yours to keep, including future updates.
Does it work on the App Store version? No. Apple's sandbox blocks reading other apps' memory and signalling other processes, so attribution and control only exist in the direct build. The App Store version is a genuine free memory-pressure monitor, not a locked shell.
Refunds? 14-day no-questions-asked refund.
