Abstract
A computer-implemented method for monitoring application resource usage on mobile computing systems may include 1) identifying a mobile computing system that is configured to execute one application at a time as a foreground application, 2) identifying a request to determine a resource consumption level of an application on the mobile computing system, 3) identifying, in response to the request, at least one frequency level at which a processor of the mobile computing system operates while the application executes as the foreground application, and 4) determining, based on the identified frequency level, the resource consumption level of the application. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
