Save games

It’s been a while since i played on this app but I remember there was an option to save past games, now the feature is no longer there. I would love to save and study my games again.

Bots?

I’m convinced that nearly all of the “online” players are all bots that instantly resign to produce ad revenue. I started counting after noticing a trend, and out of the last 100 games I tried, 3 didn’t instantly resign, and 2 timed out. So, the 95 and the 2 all had the same country flag.
It’s good if you want to play with friends, but the notifications don’t overwrite themselves on iOS, so you have to keep clearing them out.

Needs improvement

The app itself is good. Smooth in most cases. But where it is a negative is it does not pair up like level skill levels. I have a rating of 1175 but I am constantly playing players who are 1400 or close to it. If the flags are any indication of truth. I am playing same region of players. When you look to play as a hobby and are constantly losing to ranked players it is not enjoyable. I will search for another chess app.

Good for iphone to android play

The only complaint I have is that updates to android are not released at the same time as the iphone. When this happens it makes it so android users don’t exist to iphone users and vice versa till the other user has an update released.

Awesome!!!!!

This game is really good, if you have no wifi there is an option and you can change the difficulty for me other chess games glitch where as this one doesnt you can play with friends go against cpus it uncludes these options: Online match Play vs cpu Play with friends Local multiplayer Complete registration

Like but recent changes are not

I’ve been using the app for 3 years. I like the Online Match feature to play people all around the world. But I do not like the new strings limit moves to 60 seconds ( down from 80). The other time limit settings give good variety, but max 60 seconds means I am looking to other apps for chess online play.

Great game

One of the best chess games I’ve played, one game played one win taken. Unlucky Hayfrench.

Trash

Trash matchmaking is off I’m a 1960 rating but all I get is 4000+ opponents and don’t even get me started on all the dirty nonce Indians in here or all you get is people who stall the game or just waste the clock better chess aps out there SWERVE this trash

Enjoying the app

However I’m finding it difficult in the, play with friends portion of the app. Otherwise it’s a great app!

Amazing on android garbage on iOS

Almost five stars on android. 1 STAR on apple. If you would like to play chessFor hours at a time with ENDLESS Opponents stick with android version unfortunately this app has Little or no features that android dose.
including but not limited to multiple boards being able to find your matches keep track of your stats piece animation double points capability changing the board along with changing the pieces and other features too numerous to list here. A really big miss is the confirm move button option which is a lifesaver in timed matches .Was looking forward to playing this app on my $800 paperweight but apparently the have and the have not‘s is with android. Have spent many hours on the free android version. After approximately 600 games on this great app on android and then trying to play it on iOS is unbearable.
