Description:

Instead of using a Task Manager to kill apps at random, you can use a program like this one to monitor apps that are actually using your CPU. The thought process behind this design is that because of the way that newer versions of Android manages memory, most apps that remain resident, aren't actually doing anything. So, you don't need to remove them, just because they're there. Instead, watch for the apps that are using CPU cycles too often and determine how to deal with them on an individual basis.
