$20 bucks a month??

I was a huge chess tempo website fan for years. Loved that the tactics had tags on which tactics were involved and discussion. Loved even that horribly slow endgame practice. It was such a Web 1.0 aesthetic hiding a pearl of a site. But it wasn’t mobile friendly (again Web 1.0) so I moved away from it over the years. I just heard that they had an app and was so excited… until I get through the opening questions and tells me it is a 5 day trial and then $20 bucks a month. Actually a bit more because it’s $5 per week and there are 13 periods of 4 weeks each year. No way to skip that and get a limited option free play or anything. What a shame bait and switch. Also Apple should note that these numbers do not match the disclosed in app purchases in the app description.

Cannot connect to server

The last few days I’m getting this error all the time.

Connection issues

Was working great until this week. Now I always get connection issues when opening the app.

Not bad, Could Be Better

FIRST OF ALL why WHY WHY can I click my opponent's pieces I DON'T NEED TO DRAW ARROWS it sucks when you're clicking your opponent's pieces before you click your own and then you can't move BECAUSE YOU CLICKED ON YOUR OPPONENT'S PIECES
second of all fine app but ui could be better it would be better if it was more bullet friendly
otherwise this app is great but tbh I'd prefer Lichess/Chess.com because this needs improvement

Selecting tactics problems difficulty is confusing

Why selecting Hard offers me 1200-1300 problems?

Best app for puzzle training.

My rating went from 1000 to 1400 within 5 months of doing chess tempo puzzles regularly.

Dünyanın en kötü uygulaması

Saçmasapan puanlar, saçmasapan sorularla

Almost perfect

Tactics are important, this a great to learn them. One minor quibble is that it is easy to tap skip when you wanted retry. Move the buttons so they all have their own spot, the 5 stars

Отличное приложение!

Потрясающее приложение!!! Мне очень нравится строгий и не отвлекающий дизайн с необходимым функционалом. С помощью него можно делать всё: учить дебют, тактику даже играть...) И также, всё бесплатно

Многие топы такие как Дубов и Народицкий упоминали его, о чём тут ещё можно говорить?

Главное только заходить в него и готовиться, но это уже зависит от каждого в отдельности

5 звёзд!

Логает

Приложением пользуюсь много лет, но сейчас не могу открыть с перебоями, почему то!!! У меня 16 про Макс но такие перебои начались в мае месяце числа так с 15го!

Usually good but now there's a bug

There's a bug now that makes the engine take ~5 seconds to make its move for each tactics puzzle. Never used to do this before. I restarted my phone and uninstalled/reinstalled the app. Didn't fix the issue iPhone 15 pro.

Касание до фигуры

То когда я касаюсь до фигуры то сразу же делается не верный ход

Chess tempo

Wonderful site - excellent value - thoughtful and creative. Quite the best chess app there is - it is possible gradually to use the myriads of tools to devise the best training. A remarkable tour de force.

Puzzle with multiple answers

The puzzles are good but it bothers me so much that they sometimes have several correct answers and only one of them is treated correct.

Broken

Changed the board font and now the tactics page quits whenever I open it

Absolutely amazing

Wanted to share the love for this app. For serious chess training, it’s by far the best I have on my phone. The fact that it’s free on the App Store is crazy.

No engine use for books

Unclear how the repertoire training works.

Note that when you buy a book the engine usage does not work. You have to buy a premium membership on top to read the book with an engine.

App is okay but needs to add a takeback option to correct misclicks

The app is okay and the puzzles are good practice but the app doesn’t have a takeback option to correct misclicks. Not having this means that once a misclick happens, there’s no way to continue the game. It’s no longer chess at that point since your opponent is getting to play two moves in a row and you’re in essence having your turn skipped. When this happens I just let the game time out since the game doesn’t have an abort option either.

Lichess has the takeback feature implemented to correct for misclicks. ChessTempo would be a better app if it had it too.

Otherwise it’s an app that isn’t about chess, only some chess-like game.
