### 1/5 — 吐槽一些问题

*2026-09-20*

1. 分析棋谱模式只给一个评分，不支持摆其他变化
2. 解残局时在没有按提示的情况下突然开始提示几步胜，像是bug
3. 解残局时对方偶尔会一直连将，但最后判平
4. 人机对战时有时候想测试开局，但必须每走一步按一次提示，才有引擎分析走法和评分，不能加一个选项全程开启分析和提示吗
5. 残局建议加一个收藏选项，比如收藏后可以在残局目录的标题后显示一个五角星，方便之后再回顾。目前保存残局会和棋谱混在一起且没有标题，不太方便。
6. 改成一星了，残局走第一步就开始突然提示后续答案太恶心了，而且有的时候会提示有的时候不会更恶心了，残局完全玩不了。

### 1/5 — 买了终身会员，动不动就闪退

*2026-09-09*

动不动就闪退，根本就不好用，一打开就发烫的不行

**Developer response:** 这个问题已经修复，请您试用刚刚上线的新版本！

### 1/5 — 垃圾，广告太多，而且叉不掉

*2026-09-04*

垃圾，广告太多，而且叉不掉，被公司收购后变黑了

**Developer response:** 非常抱歉增加广告，新版本已经将每日广告数量限制到 5 条，5 条以后全天解锁。
另：穿山甲的跳转广告已经知会穿山甲平台，后续不会有关不掉的广告了；

### 1/5 — 买了永久会员，之前用挺好，现在突然就登不上了

*2026-08-29*

试了好多次，实名认证不通过，我一开始以为输错了，对着身份证检查了好几遍没发现问题，全部正确显示我输入错误不给过，白交了会员费。到底是开发者跑路了还是想把名字从棋路换成象棋公社在圈一波钱？你就不能在实名认证那里加个客服按钮吗

**Developer response:** 故障已经修复，重试就好了～

### 1/5 — 原来棋路付费的用户

*2026-08-28*

原来买了永久会员就完全没用了？app都下架了？

**Developer response:** 请联系 客户 QQ 18718763，老版本被下架，会员需要客服处理。

### 1/5 — 无法认证

*2026-08-28*

买了永久会员，必须实名认证，然而认证不过，不知道怎么退款。

**Developer response:** 故障已经解决，重新登录就好了～

### 1/5 — 太差了，经常会员就不能使用，还登录不了

### 5/5 — 请补上棋路里的棋库！

*2026-08-22*

以前棋路的界面最好。为什么本地棋
库里大量开局，中局，全局棋谱都不见了？

### 1/5 — 棋盘太垃圾了

*2026-08-16*
