About this app

The Android companion to memhogs: open it and see which apps are using your phone's memory, largest first, with every helper process rolled up into the app that owns it. Chrome's sandboxed renderers count toward Chrome, not toward twelve rows of sandboxed_process noise.

What's new

v0.1.0Jul 7, 2026
  • The first release of memhogs for Android: see which apps are using your phone's memory, largest first, with helper processes rolled up into the app that owns them.
  • Highlights Per-app memory as PSS from dumpsys meminfo, so shared pages are never double counted. Same fair metric the memhogs CLI uses on Linux. Helper and renderer processes group under their owning app, including dot-suffix processes like Google Play services' .persistent. Safe memory reclaim: kills an app's background processes only (am kill), the same reclaim Android performs under pressure, and reports exactly how much came back. Filter by name, a live mode that refreshes every five seconds, and a RAM pressure bar that turns red past 85%. Needs Shizuku for shell access, no root. If the Play Store calls Shizuku incompatible with a brand-new Android version, install it from its GitHub releases.
