The best

This app is most likely what you are looking for, amazing tools.
Best regards.

Not working

Down loaded it and could only get into the explanation and the few videos but not into where it could help me. Very disappointed.

No longer working

Every time I set an option it does not hold and instead reverts to the default. Please address this issue.

Response from developer

Hi, what screen is this happening on? (There are lots of options throughout the program and I welcome info on where this is happening) You can email me at: henry@chessvis.com

Fantastic training tool

This app has a HUGE amount of content for free. More importantly it has visualization training tools the i have not seen in other apps. Most of my games are won or lost because of relatively simple tactics that lurk at the end of variations of variable length. Visualization training with this app lets you solve tactics that have not yet appeared on the board. You are shown a position on the board and subsequent moves are written. You visualize the moves and solve the tactic from the position you are visualizing. You can easily adjust difficulty by adjusting the difficulty of the tactic and/or adjusting the number of moves you must visualize before the tactic emerges. This is more effective tactics training for real games where you have to see a lot of simple stuff several moves ahead.

The interface is functional, but … it’s free! I’m looking forward to many hours of fun and hopefully some improvement in my game!
