Add new positions to your repertoire first. The opening trainer trains positions from the repertoire only. You can use the built-in opening tree or ECO or import a PGN with unlimited depth. The number of lines in your repertoire is also unlimited, but you need to add them first.Best of them all.
I wish I could post a sceenshot of all the opening trainer apps I have. This one is the best by far, super nice and responsive dev, great options.F4d3r

Thanks for your suggestion! Split screen will be supported in the next version. UPDATE: Split screen is supported on tablets since Version 1.15.0Great Surprise In Finding This App
By chance while checking for any update to Vicoli’s “Chess Studio”, I found this outstanding chess opening app!
My chess suffers from constant weak opening play and after a few dedicated hours with this program I have improved significantly when using my three favorite Black openings as I play opponents on-line. I have several other iPad chess opening apps that for several reasons including being BORING to use never made much difference to my opening play as Black.
The interface is easy to learn and use, a crucial factor in its effectiveness. It’s features are well chosen and add the feeling “to explore”. The ability to replay Grandmasters’ openings with Stockfish assisting my understanding their game positions is a special feature to me. (Some favorite past Grandmasters I hope will be added to the 100+ available.)
A wonderful addition to my iPad chess applications!Show lessAvianoSaint
Works OK
Seems to be the best opening trainer on iPadOS. Not perfect, but very useful.FlrMndCane
World Class trainer
I can’t say enough good things about this app. It’s simple to use, has a World Champion chess engine with a beautiful interface. It keeps board and piece options simple but all are quality options that most tournament players use.
Using this app creates an opening repertoire that can be adjusted with ease. Using Stockfish you can explore and build openings that fit your temperament . Chess opener is the only app you need to become a strong opening player. Since I bought this app I stopped using Chessbase because on an IPad Chess Opener is convenient and enjoyable to use.Show lessTomcat228
Good App
It's a pleasure to use. I like my purple board and i like my reps i built. Number of stockfish lines I can set to 2 in settings.LanternMike
Yep just what I was looking for.
Helps you memorize openings by repetition of lines. Great work.C.Clifford
