more lessI’ve been using this Chess app for about three or four years. It has a lot of additional features like tactics puzzles, videos, and preset predicaments to challenge you and help you set up future moves to create the best situation for your pieces. There is also a play-by-play review of your games which critiques your moves and tells you what you could’ve done better. A couple things that need improvement though. Often the app will fail to notify me when it’s my turn after my opponent has moved, requiring me to open the app and navigate to my active games to manually check if it is my turn. The other issue is that sometimes I will try to start a new game with a friend with the “Play A Friend” option and the app opens the “active connection countdown” when I’m not trying to play a live game. I’m sure there is a way to create a new game with a friend without creating an active challenge, but I am not sure how. If this feature exists, it just needs to be integrated in an easy to find menu. (This review is based on my use from a Samsung Galaxy S5). EDIT: I have an iPhone X now and I am able to successfully use the “Play A Friend” option to create a daily game without the app opening the “Active Connection Countdown” so the issue I stated previously may already be resolved.

While this app is amazing, it has a fatal flaw that often causes you to move pieces where you dont want to move them, the only way to fix this is by changing the settings to have to manually confirm every move, which during quick games can lead to a loss. The accidental piece movement has caused me to lose upwards of 7 games and is seriously frustrating to lose ranked games and win streaks over a bug.

App does not show the entire screen on iPhone.
more lessI’ve set the display to normal and not zoomed. I still can’t set the last file or the check box to insert a move. It is useless on an iPhone and almost certainly an issue with the app not the iPhone iOS. Also some of the puzzles have more than one solution and you get knock down many points for choosing the best solution. There needs to be a way to submit correction and get those points back. I got a response from the de eloped stating it was the zoom setting on my iOS. That was the first thing I checked and it had no effect on the functioning of the app. I poured over al the online comments and tried everything I could find on the topic, including reviewing many other settings. The iPhone app does not work and I do not think it related to IOS. My hunch is it’s a problem with the app. Which is unfortunate because I can’t bring my iPad or desktop or laptop with me everywhere. I can typically bring my phone. Fortunately the puzzles are sized right. Even those have a problem on the small screen as I hit the wrong button and it skips to the next puzzle and does not allow you to return to the one you were working on.

Social upgrade & Design simplification (NEEDED)
more lessI want to offer simple design improvements that would engage users to a whole other level. This is so far a chess app / website that allows you to just play chess but severely lacks an actual chess community to the degree in which I see its potential. We want to find professional players / engage and keep up with chess news. People don’t want to read articles that’s boring. When I go to a professional chess players page all I see is comment spam from random people and no actual comments or video updates from the chess player them self. It needs to have Facebook comment design prioritizing the users comments at the top and then the most like comments after. They should also be able to add photos that could be commented on and liked. Secondly there are SO MANY sections that are not grouped up accordingly. People love simplicity. There should be a (Play) (Learn) (Watch) (News). Instead, all the categories that should be located inside each drop box are scattered outside these categories and are extremely ugly and overwhelming. Besides that to somehow promote twitch engagement would be huge and lastly, getting borders for your advertisements would help you look like s more high quality website. I just love chess so much and this app. I want this app to be successful and the chess community to grow.

Lots of features but not able to give feedback
more lessHi there, been playing on the app for about a month and started to really like it so looked at the memberships and there’s 3 levels ... $30, $50, and $80 (I believe) for a year, provided you pay upfront and not month by month. I was like ok I get it... there’s lots of features so you have to pay for more of them. Well that’s all good, I get that. My main issue is with the puzzles that sometimes the “opponent” player doesn’t make the best move so you can’t actually solve the puzzle correctly unless you guess they will do the wrong thing. Solved a puzzle today and I would’ve gotten it right however the opponent made the worse move of their two moves and thereby I made the wrong move because I predicted the opponent would obviously make the best move. Please creators/admins fix this issue. It’s really not the way the puzzles should function. If you fix this I will gladly change my rating to 5 stars since that’s my main issues. Also I couldn’t find anywhere in the app to report this. But secondly to advertise their “videos” to watch to learn and improve in a notification or have it ever present on the main menu is really annoying when you can’t even watch the whole video because you don’t have the most expensive membership. I don’t like that. Just an annoying paywall situation where I already paid for the app.

Many people know how to play chess but, 9 times out of 10, they won't have enough time for it. If you're looking for someone to practice with, you can always find willing partners online. This app also offers puzzles, online tutorials, tournaments, and plenty more.

While this is predominantly used to play online, the app also has a pass and play feature for when you want to go 1-on-1 with a friend or family member.

BEST CHESS EVER!!!!
more lessI had started playing chess around three years ago, but stopped playing after a while because me sister wouldn’t have time for it anymore. I also didn’t know all the weird stuff or the stuff that is secluded, like castling, stalemate and the difference between check and checkmate. And so I gave up on chess. But three years later, in 7th grade we had a chess tournament in our contest math class. I was very unpleased and upset to have found out that I lost in the second round! I watched the finals match, and watched one of my good friends get bashed and checkmated in around five to six maybe seven minutes. At that moment, I wanted to be like that guy who defeated my friend so badly. So I started forcing my sister to play chess with me. But however at one point she got tired of it. So then I had to find a good chess app or website to play on. After lots of asking people what the best chess apps are, I finally got this one!!! And I must say I love it! There is however, a minor issue. I found out there is now multiplayer! The other player must have an account and you have to invite them. Anyway, other than that, it’s all cool!!!

It's literally amazing. if you care at all about chess and want to get better, this is the app to do it. the lessons and puzzles will make you think outside the box and improve your game easy. premium is worth it, but I got mid-tear premium and it's still better than anything else. lots of customization for the chess board and your profile picture is uploadable, you don't have to choose from their library or anything like that, just don't use nudity 😭 5 stars!!

Perfect?!
more lessThis chess app is amazing and feels like it has everything you can possibly need. The chess AI can play at an extremely high level when you want it to and Ive learned many things from the AI! Also the live matchmaking system has a wide variety of options you can choose from, my favorite being the 10 minute matches because they are quick and fun, and it matches you up with other players in mere seconds. I would recommend this app to any chess player, whether it be just starting out or a great player because the matchmaking will set you up against opponents of equal skill level and the AI can be set to any rating as well. For beginners there are videos and a bunch of resources available to help you to become a great chess player as well! One last thing I want to point out is that the developers are phenomenal, they are quick to address any problems you may have and really care about the app and want it to be the best it can be. If you have problems or concerns I would highly suggest trying to reach out to them!

Great app, some mistakes with the lessons
more lessTo start, if you are looking for a chess tutor, look no further. This app is extensive with the lessons, analysis and game reports. I love that feature. There is only two drawbacks which is why I gave it four stars. One, in one, maybe two lessons they moved a pawn backwards and made you attack the pawn. Pawns don’t move backwards so this lesson is unrealistic. When you want to actually learn chess you need as many realistic examples to not confuse yourself. Hopefully, the devs review and replace this portion of the lesson. Next, it may be unfair but it would be great to know at least what and when the opponent had a “missed win” in the game analysis. You can see your mistakes, best options, and best moves made, but nothing to learn from the opposing side. Since we pay extra if this feature was included it would give you a bigger picture. Overall everything else is great. A few glitches here and there. But it is highly addictive so make sure you are not multitasking because you can get caught up quick! I decided to keep the monthly subscription because there is a lot to explore at the moment. Hopefully, I. an come back with a five star review if these small issues get fixed!

It helps me work on my chess skills and is very helpful but I don't like how if you want to check you mistakes and how well you did you have to pay for it. It's flat out annoying. There is also this feature that has caused me to lose quite a few matchs where you drag the pieces and tap where they go and it has cost me to lose quite a few matchs.

Good but a few problems
more lessI enjoyed this for the first couple of hours I had it installed. I made an account so I could access some of the features that you aren’t given off the bat. After spending a couple of hours playing against the computers, I got to one I had trouble beating. I decided I should look at some of the lessons that were recommended to me. After finishing the first lessons, I was about to start the next but was stopped because I had to pay to do more than one per day. I understand that the app is free and normal chess lessons aren’t, but I wish you could have more lessons per day. I ran into the trouble of taking one lesson and then trying against the computer, only to fail again. So I would then wait a day to start the next lesson, only to realize I didn’t remember anything I was taught from the previous lesson, and I wasn’t improving. My suggestion is that the one per day increases to three per day. This would allow people to take multiple lessons in succession, and they could then practice what they learned from the lessons against a computer. Beside the one per day limit, I had fun and might install it again eventually.

Fun game to play. The only thing that bothers me is I cannot turn off the buzzer sound specifically after you put a piece back down. It's fairly annoying and It bothers me when I intentionally let go of a peice in a way that it will go back to the old spot. I can turn of the "board" sounds but then I no longer here the click of the pieces when I just want to turn off the little buzz

The website works great, but twice now I've lost matches on the app due to the app losing connection. I have full service and had no issues with this before the most recent update. One game I even had mate in one, the opponent didn't play and their timer hit zero, but the game didn't end. My only options were to close the app or "resign" I closed the app and when coming back it said I lost due to abandonment even though their timer hit zero.

The website is great, but the app needs some work. I can't play games with the computer- it just won't make its move. (EDIT: I lowered my review after the developer's response, because even though I pay for this app, running it from my SD card will cause errors, and the developers don't seem to care about this sloppy programming.) I won't waste hundreds of dollars on a phone with a ton of internal memory just to play a game, when there is perfectly decent SD technology out there.)

Mostly good but one annoying glitch
more lessThe abandonment feature frequently forfeits games just because you access another app on your phone. This just happened to me with less than 20 seconds away from the game. It’s really frustrating when you are winning a game and you pause a movie only to come back and find the game forfeited. Fix this glitch and it would be a 5 star review. Really abandonment is a bad feature in a timed game. The rules of the game allow a player the entire time on the clock. Sure, it’s a jerk move to walk away from a game and make your opponent wait it out, but ratings shouldn’t change because of lost connections. Edit: the abandonment feature has a bug. It frequently forfeits games instantly just because I check a text or email. I’m almost always playing long time format games. I almost exclusively play 15/10. I see several other reviews with the same complaint. Fix the bug. Make the rules clearly defined. At the very least there should be a set amount of time that triggers the abandonment feature and it should be easy to look up what this time is. Currently checking a text will instantly trigger abandonment. That definitely is not the way the app should work.

Hey, chess-lovers! This new version addresses a couple of recent bugs, including one that sometimes hides Players League info in the post-game results. The situation is much improved, and we're continuing to work on a few remaining cases. (Please note: Your eligible wins are still earning trophies if you are in an active Division; the problem is just with the game-over display.)
If you enjoy this new version, please consider giving it a fresh five-star rating or review in the App Store. Your positive impressions and feedback really help! Thank you - and enjoy your chess!
Welcome to the Players League! With this new version, you'll be able to earn trophies by winning games in a division of 50 players at your skill level. Rise toward the top by the end of the week, and you advance to the next level - on your way to becoming a Legend! The best part: You don't have to do anything special to compete. Earn trophies simply by playing regular games, as usual!
(Competition within your division is based solely on games won during the week. A game must be Rated and real time to be awarded trophies. Daily games do not qualify.)
Good luck, player!
This update also fixes a number of bugs, including a blank calendar encountered by iPad owners in the Daily Puzzle.
