Default small 1 inch crack in the window tint?

I just had my window tinted and there's a small 1 inch crack in the film and I'm not sure if its a big deal. Can this be touch up with sharpie or something? I don't know if it will effect the durability of the tint and cause it to peel/ bubble over time

looks more like a bubble than a crack. likely it is cosmetic but durability will likely suffer more so than if it wasn't there, but only by a very small margin.
either way, all reputable tint shops have lifetime warranty on the install against peeling and bubbles; this would cover that! return it for a rework that should cost you nothing but your time.

thanks for your response. I went to the shop and they tried to touch up a little but they do have lifetime warrant, which is a relief
