TASK MANAGER app available for Windows 10 Mobile

[AbhishekSinha1601]

If your phone is running Windows 10 Mobile and you can't monitor the performance of your device, a beautifully designed Task Manager app is available for your device. You can view system performance inf such as CPU usage, Memory usage, GPU usage, Disk transfer speed and Network transfer statistics, all in real time. You can view running apps and can even close them one by one or free up memory by closing them at once by optimizing. Other features include viewing all installed apps including system apps, device manager, and process viewer. You can even pin one tap shutdown tile, restart tile and optimize tile on the start screen. Cortana integration is also there.
Give the app a try and don't forget to provide feedback.

Reviews not looking good so far...

 

[AbhishekSinha1601]

Atleast try the app and then decide. People don't go through the tutorial section and then post negative reviews.

The App is made by you if I am correct? Somehow can not find it in Store.

I am aware of the issue. It's a store bug. I've included the link to the app in my post.

Interesting app! What API's did you use to get this info on phones?

I used REST Interface API for IoT devices.

Very well done I'll leave a good review on italian store.

The main problem is that you'll receive many bad reviews because people cannot do the initial setup...

Another problem is that showing your device on the network without authentication is not a great idea, I see you added authentication support and it works but it is a bit hidden (the description even says it is not supported).

What I would do to mitigate the problems (that I understand are imposed by the API) is:
-show the tutorial each time you get into the app with a "do not show this again" checkbox
-include in the tutorial the authentication part as a last non-mandatory step
-redirect people back to the tutorial when the device is not properly configured instead of going on with infinite attempts and loading dots...

I really hate the US market full of people leaving bad reviews without even trying...

If you improve the usability a bit for low end users I think this app really deserves to be on the front page, you had a good idea (and if I were you I wouldn't share so easily which API you used, this market is full of people trying to steal other ideas, while I understand that that api is not hidden by any means do not make their lives so easy).

Oh one last thing. As you noticed the store does not show your app even when searching by title. What you should do is contact support and stress them. It happened to my apps before, while they say they are aware of the problem and working to fix the store you should tell them this is not acceptable and sooner or later your app starts to magically appear.

when ARM CPU's can't execute that

This is not true. ARM CPU cannot run .exes compiled for x86.

Thanks for the advice. I'll surely implement them.

There's a built-in Device Portal option that has all of this information once you enable Developer Mode. Generally, you would access this information through the web browser (127.0.0.1) but this app and a few others like that pull in that information into an app for a better/simpler view.

 

[AbhishekSinha1601]

New Update:
- Dark Theme
- Authentication support
- The app now launches instantly
- Performance improvements for low ram devices
- You can now uninstall apps either one by one or multiple apps at once
- Improved UX

Just had a tinker with this on my 930 and my lowly, but fab, 1320. Takes me back to my droid days lol. I knew win mobile was frugal, I just didn't know how frugal it was, with resources. Running a few apps, wc, Ms health, Bluetooth with band syncing, maps and Cortana, the cpu hardly broke sweat, and ram rarely got over 600mb! At rest, just system and associated bits and bobs, ram sits at 455mb. The 1320, bless her, did work a bit harder, but was nowhere near stressed. I've seen some droids curl their toes and die with just a few apps tunning!

Anyway, 5 star feedback left on UK store, and thanks for confirming what I had heard.

Well done fella
