FAQ
Where does Tend live?
Tend lives in the menu bar, not the Dock. Hover the breathing-rings icon and the panel drops down.
Does Tend upload anything?
No. Tend reads local system metrics on your Mac and makes no network requests. No analytics, no tracking, no account.
Is Tend a system monitor alternative for Mac?
Yes, if you want a calmer answer instead of a dense diagnostics dashboard. Tend is for everyday Mac owners, not deep process inspection.
What does it require?
macOS 14 Sonoma or later, on Apple silicon or Intel Macs.
