Are there any ios apps that run stockfish NNUE (14 or newer) using ALL CORES and at FULL SPEED?

Smallfish hides the kn/s and doesn't seem to reach high depths fast enough.

Chess Studio shows a very low 340kn/s (both with and without NNUE enabled) on iphone 14 pro max

Other apps I've tried get from 2000kn/s to 4000kn/s on iPhone 14pro max, depending on NNUE on or off.

The original stockfish app seems to utilize all the cores at full speed but it's using a very old stockfish engine.
I would gladly pay (donate) to anyone who can update the original stockfish app with newer engine.

I stand by my suggestion made in this thread on 01-Aug-2020: a device that gets a good score on standard performance metrics is likely to run your chess program quickly. For example, if you want to know a particular phone's Geekbench score, Google it, and 2 seconds later you'll know it. If you just want the fastest phone, you'll find plenty of Geekbench league tables.

My guess is that the correlation between Geekbench scores and specialist chess software scores will be higher than 0.9: if so, the Geekbench scores will be the way to go: they're everywhere, and more or less every device will have been tested.

tbf, this won't answer h1a8's question above.

Geekbench integer scores highly correlate with kn/s
PROVIDED THE CHESS PROGRAM IS USING ALL CORES AT FULL SPEED. Some programs use less than half the available cores for stockfish (chess studio for example)
