### 1/5 — The 1 star app that could be 5 stars

*2020-07-08*

Okay this app is not great because it does nothing it promises. You are bombarded by ads and the chess talk is non existent. As a user of the brilliant stock talk I’m super disappointed. I am the creator of Chess Futures a new rating system based on chess performances as stock prices. I’d much prefer a system like that rather than Glicko-2 ratings. You could have a chess stock list that allowed users to add stock players and chess signals were added to rank the players. And have ads if you must but intermittent ads that are on a single screen not removing space from the app permanently. You can do way better.
