Benchmark Pro helps you measure performance, understand your results and keep a useful record of your device over time. RUN FOCUSED BENCHMARKS Measure CPU, GPU, memory and storage performance. Run the core suite or choose an individual test. See progress, elapsed time and clear explanations of what each result measures. WATCH LIVE ACTIVITY Follow CPU activity and memory use in live graphs. View device details, available storage, battery information and the operating system's thermal status where supported. UNDERSTAND YOUR RESULTS Review your own benchmark history and compare compatible runs. Results are specific to the workload and device conditions; they are not a universal device-health score or a ranking against every device with the same chip. CHECK HARDWARE Explore supported display, touch, audio, camera and sensor checks. Run a 1-, 3- or 10-minute stress test to observe sustained performance. NETWORK RESPONSE CHECK Measure HTTPS response time and variability to the configured endpoint. This is a responsiveness test, not a download or upload bandwidth test. KEEP A CLEAR RECORD Export readable PDF reports with results, graphs and device details. Available checks and measurements vary by platform and hardware. Core performance benchmarks and basic monitoring are free. Pro adds stress testing, hardware diagnostics, extended history, advanced comparisons, PDF export and selected themes. Choose Monthly, Yearly or Lifetime in the app. Prices and any eligible introductory offer are shown before purchase. Performance varies with background activity, power settings, available storage and thermal conditions. Guided diagnostics help you observe behavior; they do not certify hardware condition.

Homerun Go turns your phone into a real Minecraft server. Not a remote control for a server somewhere else. The world runs on the phone in your hand, and your friends connect over the internet from their own devices. CREATE A SERVER IN ABOUT A MINUTE Pick a name, a version, and your world settings. Homerun Go handles the networking, the port, and the setup. No PC and no cloud rental. FRIENDS JOIN FROM ANYWHERE Every server gets its own address, like yourname.gethomerun.app. Send it with the share sheet and your friends connect from Minecraft: Java Edition on their own devices. Playing on the same wifi? Put the server on your local network instead. RUN IT LIKE A REAL HOST • Live console with command input • Player list with kick, ban, and op controls • Charts for performance and players over time • World snapshots you can roll back with one tap • Difficulty, game mode, whitelist, view distance, and more HOST TOGETHER Invite co-hosts by email or a one-time link, with owner, admin, and member roles. With backups on, a friend's device can even take over hosting. FIND AND BE FOUND List your server publicly so anyone can discover it. Browse other public servers with live player counts and ping, and follow minigame leaderboards with your own Minecraft profile. LIGHT ON YOUR BATTERY Servers on your phone run on Pumpkin, an open source server engine written in Rust and light enough for a phone. Phone servers are vanilla Java Edition, so mods and plugins stay on Homerun Desktop, where your account keeps everything in sync. Homerun Go is free. Start as a guest, then add a free account for backups, a custom address, and sync with Homerun Desktop. NOT AN OFFICIAL MINECRAFT PRODUCT. NOT APPROVED BY OR ASSOCIATED WITH MOJANG OR MICROSOFT.
