(End of quote).

By activating the device comparison (now free of charge), you get access to the technical data of all iOS devices ever sold by Apple without the help of the Internet or other reading, and this in the form of a practical comparison of two devices that you select yourself. This also has a practical use for all users (not only geeks and nerds), for example if you need the dimensions in advance to order a custom-made case or want to know how big the performance differences are between a new model and the one you have already bought. Also very useful for collectors and second-hand buyers, because Apple no longer lists slightly older devices on its website. With this app, you have all the technical data quickly available at any time.

Pros

  • clearly arranged
  • easy to use
  • no ads
  • fair price
  • Tip as in-app purchases possible
  • nice widgets

Cons

  • no temperature values for CPU/battery (Apple's fault!)

Conclusion

Even without a temperature display, this hardware monitor offers enough measurement data for nerds, geeks and other technically interested people.

Important Tips

Light bulbIf you have an Apple Mac/MacBook/iMac, you can access the iPhone/iPad via cable or WLAN with suitable monitor software for macOS.

iMazing, forensic/management software for iOS devices can also display battery data including temperature (available for macOS & Windows).
