### 2/5 — Not user friendly at all

*2025-12-24, version 1.1.0*

Badly needs some enhancements

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2025-02-08, version 1.1.0*

Can you include traditional notation as option ?

### 4/5 — A great free app but room for small improvement

*2024-10-03, version 1.1.0*

The app is well designed but I would like it if they could make an algebraic notation (simplified, as an alternative option). An other suggestion would be to add an option where we could found an opening by playing it on a board. (Tree)

### 5/5 — прелестно

*2024-09-05, version 1.1.0*

отличное изучение дебютов

### 4/5 — Stunning

*2023-11-03, version 1.1.0*

Best app going just wish when you complete the opening it didn’t throw you back to the start, if it was an optional button to click reset then we can study the opening position for longer, other than that, and wanting some more theory information presented with the openings ( but that’s ambiguous) i love it

### 4/5 — Amazing but…

*2023-10-03, version 1.1.0*

Love this app a lot, but there’s a glitch, and if you are on the black side, and you pull up an opening with only 1 move, it’ll repeat infinitely. Please hope you can fix this, it’s really annoying.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2023-07-15, version 1.1.0*

Been using for around an hour and it is completely free. Got all the openings i think defo 500+ and all accessible without data, got a 5hour plane ride home and i can get a bit of practice in, thank you to the developer!

### 5/5 — Noice

*2023-06-21, version 1.1.0*

Noice

### 4/5 — Good app, not so user friendly

*2023-02-07, version 1.1.0*

I would love this app if there were a back button to look at the opening I just did.

### 4/5 — Good, could be great

*2022-10-14, version 1.1.0*

Pros: Repetition, good amount of openings and variations, highlights incorrect moves on order.

Cons: the long notation feels dated, and clunky. Missing some main openings, would love turn off sound when ringer is on, and cosmetic piece and board changes would be great. 

Would pay a couple of bucks for these benefits. Thank you for the time put into this app. It’s great and helped me move from 1320s into low 1400s.
