Good, bad and ugly
Over and over again.
I’m considering asking for a refund unless this gets sorted.
Response from developer
Hi, Thank you for the honest feedback - and I’m really sorry about this experience. You’re absolutely right. I’ve identified a bug that was causing daily reminders to turn back on after being disabled. This was not intended behavior. The fix is already implemented and will be included in the next app update 3.25 (coming this week). I truly appreciate you pointing this out - it helped me catch and resolve the issue. Thanks again for your support 🙏
I was duped
Response from developer
Hi - we’re really sorry this happened and thank you for reporting this. We identified a rare premium synchronization issue that could occur when using Premium on multiple devices or with bad internet connection. This has now been fixed. Please update the app (to version 3.24) and tap “Restore Purchases” if needed. If anything still doesn’t work correctly, contact us and we’ll resolve it immediately: stovmasian.master@gmail.com. If everything is working now, we’d really appreciate if you could update your review. Thanks for helping us improve the app.

Плохо
Response from developer
Спасибо, что поделились отзывом. Сейчас в версии 3.15 мы не наблюдаем системных проблем с загрузкой или вылетами, поэтому хотелось бы разобраться, что именно происходит в вашем случае. Напишите в TG — постараемся помочь. В приложении по-прежнему доступна бесплатная часть, а Premium открывает расширенные возможности. Это позволяет нам развивать продукт и поддерживать высокое качество базы задач. Разные платформы решают разные задачи — мы делаем акцент на системном тренировочном подходе и прогрессе игрока.

Phenomenal
Response from developer
Thank you so much for the awesome review 🙏 I’m really glad you’re enjoying the app, especially the new stats and the computer explanations — I’ve spent a lot of time polishing those!

Très bon puzzles
Response from developer
C’est déjà implémenté. Il vous suffit de mettre à jour l’application vers la dernière version. Désormais, la fonction Retry reprend non pas depuis le début, mais à partir du dernier coup erroné. Merci beaucoup pour votre retour!
Все классно
Response from developer
Спасибо большое за отзыв! Рад, что приложение помогает тренировать различные позиции и тематики. Я создавал его именно для того, чтобы шахматные задачи были доступны всем. Удачи в тренировках!
Необходима доработка
1. Работает только от вайфай. От красного сотого оператора не работает.
2. При ошибке необходимо выполнять все действия заново, а не последнее неправильное.
3. Отсутствие анализа. Нельзя понять, к чему ведет тот или иной ход
4. Нельзя сделать ход назад, чтобы посмотреть, например, какую фигуру съел компьютер, или свои ходы вспомнить.
В общем, хотелось бы как на личессе или чесскоме.
Upd. Поменял оценку с 3 на 1. Удаляю. Пункты 2 и 3 убивают. Мучения какие-то. Проще на личесс решать задачи
Response from developer
Спасибо за ваш отзыв Мы учли ваши замечания и уже внесли улучшения в версии 1.9: - теперь при ошибке можно сделать Retry именно последнего неверного хода, а не начинать - добавили полную поддержку движка с анализом линий К сожалению, с пунктом 1 ситуация не зависит от нас — красный сотовый оператор на своей стороне блокирует Cloudflare, поэтому приложение не подключается через их сеть. Будем рады, если вы попробуете новую версию и обновите свою оценку
