WOO!!

it is slayyy

Perfect

Works great with my Millennium boards!! I just found out about this app and I dusted off my boards. It’s such a joy to use that I found enjoyment with over the board gaming again. Minor issues are a such big deal when playing over the board due to time management. This has been such a flawless app. Thank you!

Great app that fills a huge hole

The app makes it possible to connect iOS chess apps to pretty much every chess smart board. The connectivity is simple and the app support is great

Have an e-board? You need this

This is the iOS app all the chess eboards are missing. It works so well I have stopped using the manufacturers apps for all my eboards.
If you own one, you need this app. It is the only way to play.
