User reviews

Great app but could be more intuitive.

This app is great but takes some time to get used to.
I’m just using it to put my favorite games in manually with my own comments. Initially the board was too small but I somehow made it larger by clicking around randomly.
While imputing a test game I kept hitting the gear icon on the top right intuitively thinking it would allow changes to the players or results, but instead it brings up a menu I still don’t understand. In order to actually edit the players you need to make sure the board is in input mode by clicking an icon next to the board, only then it’ll allow you to make changes and comments to the game.
I still don’t understand the analysis mode as any comments made in the analysis mode seem to be removed once I click away.
I don’t know if it’s already a feature and I just need to find it, but it would be cool if the analysis mode pulled an engine to check the moves.
Anyway, I think this app is great and with a little more polish can be absolutely amazing for the average person.
