Settings

Settings lets you manage updates, purchases, and a small set of preferences used across the app and widgets.

Settings: updates, purchases, and preferences.
The available sections can vary by app version and platform.

Table Of Contents​

Updates​

In Updates, you can:

  • Check for Updates: checks whether an update is available.
  • Install Update: appears when an update is available and opens the update progress flow.

Purchases​

In Purchases, Lirum shows your current premium entitlements:

  • Premium Status: one of four states -- Lifetime Active (has lifetime purchase), Subscription Active (has active subscription), Unlocked (full/Pro app version), or Free (Lite version with no purchases). A "last verified" timestamp shows when the subscription was last checked.
  • Lifetime access: whether a lifetime purchase is active.
  • Subscription: subscription status (shown on the Lite version).
  • Subscribe to Premium: opens the paywall to purchase a subscription or lifetime access (shown on the Lite version when not subscribed).
  • Restore Purchases: re-checks your App Store purchases (shown on the Lite version).

General Preferences​

In General, you can configure:

  • Measurement Units: metric vs imperial formatting for values shown across the app.
  • Data Units: how byte sizes are formatted (base 2 vs base 10).
  • Force Language: override the app language independently from the system language. Tap to open a searchable grid of language cards. Supported languages: English, Chinese (Simplified), Chinese (Traditional), Cantonese, Danish, German, Spanish, Finnish, French, Irish, Italian, Portuguese (Brazil), Portuguese (Portugal), Swedish, Ukrainian, Japanese, and Korean. Language changes take effect immediately.

Widgets​

In Widgets, you can:

  • Toggle Show Timestamp (controls whether widgets show a timestamp).
  • Open Alerts to configure widget alert settings (see below).
  • See Widgets for the full widget list and screenshots.

Alert Settings​

The Alerts sub-screen lets you configure which alerts the Usage Alerts widget monitors. It includes:

  • Quick Actions: Enable All and Disable All buttons.
  • Six alert categories with individual toggles:
CategoryAlertsDefault Thresholds
CPUCritical, WarningCritical: 85%, Warning: 70%
MemoryCritical, WarningCritical: 80%, Warning: 65%
StorageCritical, WarningCritical: <10% free, Warning: <20% free
NetworkWarningWarning: >50 MB/s sustained
ThermalCritical, Serious, FairBased on system thermal state
BatteryCriticalCritical: <10%

Alerts require sustained conditions (multiple consecutive samples meeting the threshold) rather than momentary spikes, reducing false positives.

Developer Options​

Developer options are only available in debug builds. They include actions like copying logs and opening debug/log views.
