  • The Best Chess APP Ever!!!!

    It’s like having a coach and chess engine with you around the clock. T-Pro took my chess game to another level. Thanks, to Tom and Apple for a great product.
  • Good chess app

    I really like this chess app. It allows you to play against the computer with the computer set at different levels of strength. The strength of the computer can be set at an ELO level. I don’t think these ELO levels are precise. I think they are approximate to the strength of a human at that ELO level. However, I like having some idea of what the ELO level of my computer opponent is when I play against the computer.

    When you choose to play a new game you can choose between just a new game, or a rated game. If you choose to play a rated game then the app will adjust the strength of your computer opponent based on whether you win or lose in the rated game.

    The app allows you to save games that you complete so you can go back to them later and see what moves you made in previous games.

    You can also export games in a PGN file. This works quite well.

    I find that the computer opponent plays a lot like the way a real human opponent would. That is my subjective opinion of the moves that the app makes during games.

  • Terrific

    Always a great challenge and trains you to be more strategic, to consider consequences more clearly and to always think ahead.
  • My favorite

    I had loads of chess apps and this is my favorite, so I started deleting all the others. It’s my main go to chess app!
  • Absolutely The Best Chess App

    Can’t see what more you could want from a chess app. Love to see a Mac version that could be synced but that would mean a 10 stars. Excellent!
  • Great app, excellent features.

    I’ve been using this app for quite a while. Can’t even remember when I initially bought it. Even though I frequently try out some of the newer/different apps, I keep coming back to this one as my main chess app.

    I really like the clean, uncluttered look. Just an excellent rendered chess board (with many different style choices if desired) and an easy to use set of powerful features.

    Also, superb customer support. I recently noticed a small bug and notified the developer via email. He had it fixed and an update on the app store the next day — which, considering the App store’s normal turnaround time is a superhuman effort.

  • The Best

    Terrific app. (I spend too much time on it!). Very good for all levels and ages to improve their standard.
  • Quirk

    Why does the three move rule apply to the challenger but not to the computer? I get 2 moves that are similar but when the advantage is reversed the computer goes on forever in an obvious stalemate.
  • Best in Store

    After trying MANY of the chess programs (a research project) in the App Store, I find that by all measures tChess Pro is the very best.
  • Fantastic!

    I think more people would write 5 star reviews but they are having too much fun playing to stop. I really had to force a pause to write this. This app is flawless as far as single player goes. I only played once online and I didn’t have any issues. This has really improved my game. Have been using this app for at least 7 years.
