App Profile: CrossMark

R Sketch

Rating: 2/5

This app is about the bare minimum of a benchmarking tool. It is pretty obviously a poorly translated iPad app, with an unresizeable main window with some barely legible text to label its results graph. There are no details about what any of its tests are actually measuring, with the only breakdown of its "Overall Score" being the nebulous categories of "Productivity" "Creativity" and "Responsiveness." The online results browser shows only Intel systems achieving the top scores, so whatever they're measuring seems specifically tailored to make Intel look good and minimize any advantages that AMD or Apple Silicon systems provide. The only reason this isn't a 1-star review is that the app technically does work, and is measuring *something*, but what that something is is anyone's guess.
