(Android) Need a Windows-like Task Manager

I'm looking for a program that shows me what apps are eating up all my CPU on my phone.

Does such a program exist?

assuming it also affects battery life, you can just look in the battery settings for which apps are eating your battery life.

it's a fairly reliable method for me.

Nice idea but the most used "app" is "idle" at 20%. Doesn't really seem to list anything specific.

I second this. Not just CPU usage as OP asked for, but also granular RAM and battery monitoring with per-app/service kill button.

Unfortunately I dont believe such an app exists. Manufacturers are pretty determined to hide certain system apps. I believe Google too as well. It would get shut down pretty quickly if someone were to attempt distributing the app.

After doing some research, I have to agree. It's irritating.
