  • Disconnected Games Ruin Ratings

    I am a parent with my son signed up as one of my Kids. We’ve tried several times to start a Fast Game, but each time the challenge was accepted, the app disconnected me with the “None of your kids are available” pop-up even though I’m literally looking at the game open on my son’s screen with the timer counting down until I “lose” the game due to “abandonment”. The “None of your kids are available” feature needs to be corrected because this ruins the ability to play online games with my son and/or starts games and forcing my login to “abandon” them and ruin in-game ratings with invalid win-loss stats. I will update my review and star-rating when this is corrected in the app.

  • Can’t purchase!

    Love this app and would like to purchase the membership and unlock unlimited puzzles, but after selecting eithe 1,3 or 6 months, it just ends in an error message. Also, I can’t seem to find any real people to play(just gives a blank list). Love the interface and playing the different ai levels different interfaces, though

  • Queens Queens Queens

    So this app is great, no bugs as far as I know. The only bad part is that you have to have membership to play all the bots. Good thing is: You don’t need the membership to play. I just find this app helpful as an endless “Get as many pawns as possible to the other side of the board” game. For some odd reason, I just like getting queens. Anyway, I totally recommend this app for Kids. Happy playing! (Remember to #Vote-eat-pet!)

  • Using this website and app for gifted students

    Our gifted program 2nd through 6th grades, in our medium sized city is using this program. I have the students use the app on their devices if they have access. Many use the website only, or in addition to their app.

    This app is amazing. The students love to play me in slow chess. They play each other on the fast games, and have grown in their knowledge an skills as chess players.

    We hope to form chess clubs at our schools and maybe city-wide at some point, and Chess Kid will be a part of our program.

  • It could be better

    This app has everything to be amazing, but yet it lack some features that would make it so much better. If kids could search for their friends who have also signed up it would motivate them to challenge each other and play more. Even in the Gold membership this is not possible.
    Also, the latest update brought some kind of bug, the audio of the videos are completely muted. My kid has learned so much from watching them, and now he is annoyed that he can’t hear anything.
    I wish the developers would look into the “search for friends” feature.

  • AMAZING Kids Chess App ♟

    This is the best kids chess app ever. It has fun videos and good puzzles 🧩 with no inappropriate content. I love it! (Please change these 2 things: let us choose the level of the puzzles and add more profile pictures. Other than that, it’s perfect! 👍😄🍀 Thanks for creating this app!! 🏆
  • Please change time allowance

    I understand the requirement to limit the free exercises to once a day....but could you alter it so that it is once in a 24 hour period...and not literally 24 hours after the last time? Sometimes my grandson will do the exercise in the afternoon. That means he cannot do it the next morning (20 hours later)....he has to wait till the afternoon (+24 hours).
    Thanks

  • Seems great but has major flaws

    Downloaded the app for my 5 year old. He has the kid account and I’ve created a parent account. It would be great if I could set up another parent account so that my husband can play a game against our son too. Also, I received a message that if I upgrade my (son’s) account, the upgrade would also be reflected on the parents account. So I upgraded my parent account thinking the upgrade would also impact my son’s account, but to no avail! Lastly, my husband created a parent account in hopes of finding my son’s account... he found him but it doesn’t offer the capability to play with him.

  • Stuff

    ChessKid is a really good game. I have a fun side for chess as I go to chess lessons. I like how you have different options to choose like vs bots or people, watch lessons do lessons and much more, the bots are fun. I am up to override. I say to get the gold membership as well
