Ok but could be improved

Only quarter board leaves out some remote moves in some Joseki.

Nice and detailed! The full version is worth the money

Great to learn joseki

Great

Wonderful program.

Good content, app a bit clunky

Hi

Cool app. So many variations inside!

A few suggestions:

1) Please don't ask for a review quite so often. Sometimes 3 times in a row.

2) I don't know what I get if I buy the full version. You could make that clear (and I might buy!)

3) UI is a bit cluttered and buggy. The green dots and text interfere with each other. Text jumps around and sometimes it gets chopped off.

4) the black popup when you enter/leave research mode makes you wait for a few seconds each time when you just want to quickly try a line and jump back. Don't need it the popup, just light up the research icon like you do.

Thanks for your consideration, and thanks for making this cool app. I wouldn't bother writing all this if I didn't like using it!

Crashes consistently

Starting the app and simply pressing E leads to a reproducible crash for me.

Just covers Hoshi

The demo just covers the 4-4 star point. However, it does provide a good variety for that one opening. Does not provide enough info about why a given sequence is or is not joseki, leaving you to figure it out on your own, which has improved my own game, but leaves me somewhat confused on some of the more complicated sequences. All in all I'd call it a wash, three stars.

A serious bug

A good collection of Joseki and quite an extensive coverage of variations but it's really annoying to see that the grids previously occupied by removed stones are not properly rendered.

Very few variations

Very few variations are covered. Not worthy the money.

Demo is one joseki

That's it. The 4x4. And really, the moves are just linked to a text box.

You pay $4.99 for a full version that might have the other starting stone locations, but that's a lot for what the demo gives.

It would be different if you got a little play time or something, but it's just rote learning. It's flash cards.
