Bad review

This game is so slow and confusing to work. Doesnt give a clear explanation on what actually to do. (Not regarding how to play) it’s so slow even my grandma can run faster.
Pick up the pace guys. I dong recommend this app.

Ok but

Average game full of chess cheats maybe add a checker that people aren’t useing engines

Glitch

I just played a game where there was a glitch and opponent took my king off the board and the game continued….confusing and frustrating but also really hilarious. Love this app tho, this was a rare glitch

Bug

corrupted Game not repaired

Idiotic draw feature

The Game decides for itself to award draws or stalemates. It’s neither a draw or stalemate when the opponent can no longer move. That’s a loss!!!!!

Needs social updates

It's annoying that people can request games with you that appear everytime you want a ranked game. It is happening quite frequently to the point of wanting to block this person.
However there isn't a way of doing this, which is also annoying as I have to keep losing the game just to try and get another person to play against. Killing my rating.

Отличное приложение

На ios 26.1 вылетает при входе!!!
Crash on enter iOS 26.1

Glitches

Game will have glitches where you move two spaces with pon and it lets player kill you like you moved one space has happened on multiple occasions and no contact support to fix problem when it occurs

Puzzles

Many of the moves made by the computer are ridiculous and therefore not realistic

Locked out and can’t sign back in

I played with this app with my friend a lot. Then it locked me out in the middle of a game and I can’t sign back in. Tried to create a new account - it wont let me. Deleted the app, downloaded it again - still wont let me. Purchased the paid version - still wont let me log back in or create a new account. Help please!

Nice but …

Nicely designed and easy to start a game. However, the ratings are grossly inflated. At my best, I’m around 2010. On this app, I am 2700+. There are players rated in the 2800s, who make careless mistakes.
Feature requests:
When I tap on a notification, I should be taken to that game.
When I submit a move, in a game, I should be taken to the next game.

Third review… basically amazed u can’t get any customer service in this app.

It’s unbelievable u can’t get any response on an issue… and I haven’t had an issue in 5 years until now. The issue I had is now junior to No one will answer your inquiries!!

No points… terrible support

I played a person one game for two months, his rating was above mine all this time. It looked like he was playing multiple games and just quit playing them… he dropped 600 points in two days. The game analysis had me ahead. I got 0 points for the win after two months. I have written the support but from the other comments I’ve read on the reviews… no one bothers to get back to you. It’s disappointing

i almost died, great app though

I almost got lured by a pedophile (not drake) when i was dumb and didnt really know what to do in those situations. the user was a user named “rosehannah” and she will ASK FOR YOUR NUMBER for “chess tutorials”. “she” said that “she” could see my games, which isn’t possible, and then said that i was really good when i had a super low ranking and asked for my number for tutorials. anyway, the app is really good and i highly recommend it for cross platform chess games with your friends

LOL

Love the app, but when the computer makes a mistake on level 4 or higher, it causes a glitch and keeps closing the app lol

Wait time

Great app and ranking system is able to play with excellent players . Only problem I face “waiting time” it’s really abusing several players. Please make it 48 hrs expire time per move instead of 5 days.

Excellent

Splendid

Old friends

My friends and I have stayed in touch because of this game. There’s no pressure to move or to even play that day (you’ve got 30 days between moves). I love it.

App not opening

The app isn’t opening. It’s been like that for 2 days… 18 games in waiting… 😭

Fantastic

A cross-platform app that pairs you up with friends or random players with similar skill level, let's you learn between moves/games with a seemingly endless library of adequately challenging chess puzzles, and all that for free - that is simply amazing.
Sending big kudos from Seattle to the developer to honor this great contribution to the global chess community!!
