# What is Bridge Activity and what does it show?

Bridge Activity is a monitor of everything moving over your Bridge links. At the top you see live receiving and sending speed and lifetime totals; below are three charts — **Throughput** (speed over time), **Total transferred** (the running amount) and **Items transferred** (scraps versus files) — and a searchable **Activity log** naming every item sent and received, plus connections and pauses.

Open it on the Mac from **More** → **Bridge Activity…** or the Devices card; on a PC it's the **Activity** tab. You can view **All devices** or pick one.
