Throttlr
Your connection, working on your terms.
Stop letting one app take the whole connection. Pick an app, then throttle it, block it or give it a quota.
Three controls, every app
Each one works on downloads and uploads separately.
- Throttle
- Separate upload and download caps for one app or the whole system.
- Block
- Cut an app off the network and let it back on in a click. No firewall rules.
- Quota
- Data allowances that reset on your schedule, then block or slow the app.
Right from the menu bar
Check live speeds, search apps, and throttle, block or set quotas without opening a window.
See bandwidth as it happens
Live upload and download activity for every app, covering both TCP and UDP.
Usage over time
Monthly and yearly totals with per-app comparisons, so you can see exactly where your data went.
Internet and local, separately
Shape internet and local-network traffic independently, and filter your history by either.
Your stats never leave your Mac
Traffic is processed on-device. History stays local, and there's no analytics or tracking.
Free to monitor
Monitoring, usage history and menu bar speeds are free download. Pro adds throttling, blocking and quotas.
