Amazing app but few fixes needed

In my opinion it’s the best chess app that currently exists. Two small fixes: when going over a players past tournaments it should show the appropriate title they were when the game took place. Let’s say it’s a game from Yagiz from a few years ago- the title GM shouldn’t be next to his name. It works sometimes but usually not. Also, when watching a game a good quality of life update I think would be having the engine auto paint the moves either book inaccuracy only move ect - it would make the watching experience more smooth. Or at least have an option to turn that on.

Response from developer

11/06 Update: Good news! We’ve fixed the issue with player titles, so they should now reflect the title the player held when the game was played. Thank you again for pointing this out! 10/26 Thank you a lot! We agree and will look for a way to solve the title issue right away. Adding symbols live during the game would be a great idea too, but running the engine on every move for every live game is expensive, and as a small startup we can’t afford it yet. Hopefully we’ll reach that level soon!

Great App…1 Fix Needed

Viewer experience is so much better than other platforms. With that said it needs 1 fix: Even when I turn off engine lines, I often see indicators for which moves were inaccurate and blunders. I have messed with all the settings, cleared analysis, etc.

I want to be able to find errors myself but can’t do that when the game is pre-annotated with no option to view without the annotations.

Update 09/07: We have fixed this issue! 09/04: Thank you very much for the kind words! It is a bug. We have a Raw PGN mode in settings which should have worked, but it is not. We are going to fix it soon. Whenever you notice an issue, please click the profile picture or your initials on the top left, then Feedback. That way you can also send us a screenshot of the issue, we'll receive it faster and work on it. Thank you!"
