User reviews

Always changing numbers orders and hard to track the games

Keep changing order of games and hard to track the game and computer analysis is not possible etc.. Always asking note paste notifications. Really annoying

Paid collection does not work

The restore function does not work. I bought this app again and same problem. Frustrated that there is no support. Would be nice if someone could help.

Оплатил 3 покупки внутри приложения. И все пусто

Шахматные партии не появились коллекцию скачал. Верните деньги! Либо почините

Amazing, but with an obvious flaw...

Firstly, to an enthusiast like me, it is incredible (having bought the ‘Pro’ package for £9.99) to have such a collection of games on your mobile. It seems to contain all the games of all the great chess players you’ve ever heard of, and many you probably won’t have heard of. However, it is almost unbelievable that a dedicated chess app does not recognise ‘en passant’ - every game that I have played through in which this does not occur is fine; but in games in which it was played, this causes the equivalent of a glitch. The ‘captured’ pawn does not disappear, nor does the ‘capturing’ pawn move. The subsequent moves consequently make no sense. PLEASE can the developer rectify this with an update? Then it would easily merit five stars!

Bad app

Fixed reviews. Bought full version. Ads still appear and the demo version had games and pro version had none. I will be asking for refund or flag this app.
