Complete Guide to Accurately Analyzing iOS App Power Consumption with Keymob

1. Value Proposition and Core Advantages

Keymob’s power consumption monitoring module deeply integrates iOS system-level power management APIs, enabling precise identification of power consumption hotspots at the application feature level. Compared to the abstract data from Xcode Energy Log, Keymob offers the following core capabilities:

• Component-Level Power Consumption Breakdown: Differentiates the power consumption share of hardware modules such as CPU, GPU, and network
• Scenario-Based Power Consumption Traceability: Automatically associates power consumption events with user action paths
• Thermal Model Prediction: Estimates surface temperature changes of the device based on power consumption data

2. Detailed Operational Process

1. Starting Power Consumption Monitoring

1. Connect Device: Connect the device via Lightning/USB-C and trust the certificate
2. Navigation: From the left menu, select Performance Monitoring → Performance Graph
3. Activate Metrics: In the top dropdown, select “App Power Consumption Monitoring”
   

2. Select Target Application

1. Process Filtering: Click the “Select App” button and select the target application (e.g., Genshin Impact)

3. Data Collection and Analysis

• Click Start: Displays real-time power consumption curves and thermal simulations
• Perform Tests:
  • Typical user actions (e.g., continuous 30-minute battle)
  • Background behavior tests (e.g., wake frequency during push notifications)
