It has a 'play board' feature which let's you check moves out before playing them, to ensure things turn out to plan. It automatically employs the rules so disputes are avoided. It also let's you chat as you play with opponents all over the world (and try to rise up the rankings). Great little game - easier than chess but still a good fun tease for the old grey matter. Would be nice in a future version to see move numbers displayed as this helps when chatting about the game (you made a great squeeze on move 22). It's really good, try it! ### 5/5 — Post Checkers *2014-07-06* Great game! ### 5/5 — 5 stars *2014-07-01* Loved their game words by post. Just launched this and has the same awesome feel as original. Love it! Recommend for you to play ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Buggy *2026-02-26* Very buggy Program ### 1/5 — Requires creating Account before trying *2025-11-26* It says you can play locally or against the computer, but requires you to create an account before you can see or try the app. Why? It’s just Checkers, there are many such apps and I wanted to compare how good this one is. ### 1/5 — Ça ne fonctionne pas 😕 *2024-08-28* Ça n efonctionne pas ### 1/5 — Buggy *2016-08-25* Get rid of 2 day wait between moves and this app would be very good. But get rid of "casual rules" and this app would be "Great." A bug causes matching casual rules players with fixed jump rules players. Ruins all competition...moving on to a better checkers app...why would I pay for no add version...and the 2 day before move limit is ridiculous...it took me almost 2 months to beat one sore loser who didn't want to concede. ### 1/5 — Good *2015-12-12* Worst app I've ever bought. Full of bugs. ### 2/5 — The cheaters *2020-05-03* I would give a 5 if you do something about , you cheater , but now a2 . If it was anything to you you would,because there nothing to there sorry ass that have to cheat . ### 3/5 — This app was great *2019-05-23* This app was the best checkers app. But I’m not sure anyone even plays here anymore. ### 3/5 — Games by post *2015-01-20* Although this is s very good app, like chess by post, I was one of the very first people to play chess by post and if you reported a bug or problem, Jeff, the app developer of both these apps, would be more than happy to get back to you and reply. But, as his app became more successful, he became more aloof, not responding to ANY of the emails he received from me and others! What are the chances of that happening here with this app? Even money, I'd say!!! ### 4/5 — Great Program *2026-04-08* It has some bugs, but it is by far the best Checkers program being offered today Hopefully the developer will listen to the suggestions that we send in ### 4/5 — Good checker app for android and iPhone *2020-04-21* A good way to pass time. Where is the chess ?? ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — better than snapchat *2026-07-21* my friend and I came to this app because Snapchat requires you to jump a piece if it becomes available and we hate that, that’s not how we played when we were young. That’s why I extremely appreciate the ability to change the way you play to “casual” in this app! I also love that the ads are very unobtrusive ### 5/5 — Potential bug *2026-04-02* I love this game, been playing with someone special for quite a while now. The new update unfortunately means neither of us can accept a new game. Please can this be remedied. ### 5/5 — It’s good *2025-07-13* I’ve been playing with an android user and along with that they’re in a different country 5 stars. (It’s also not very buggy) ### 5/5 — Checkers *2025-02-09* A good game it makes everyone play or if they quit and don’t play it will resign them no matter if they ignore the game. ### 5/5 — Gut! *2022-06-25* Eine App die alles bietet, was man zum Damespielen braucht und zuverlässig fun. ### 5/5 — Cross platform *2020-02-26* Great game. Cross platform is great so I can play with others ### 5/5 — Best *2015-08-11* Best Checkers app ever! There's even a WindowsPhone version available ### 5/5 — 5 stars *2015-05-06* Nice app! ### 5/5 — Good time passer. *2014-10-15, version 1.0.4* Great app as are the others Jeff has developed. ### 5/5 — Checkers by Post *2014-09-24* Great app. Thank you. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
