## Version history (last 4 releases)

### 1.3 — 2026-09-18

TRAINING IS NOW AN ADVENTURE
Climb a map of 1,000 puzzle levels, from beginner to master. Earn up to three stars on every level, beat a boss every ten levels, and chase a high score.

MEET YOUR OPPONENTS
Sixteen animal friends, from a tiny chick to a mighty dragon, now play against you. They cheer, tease and share tips as you play, and they speak out loud in all seven languages. (You can turn the voice off in Settings.)

LEVEL UP
Earn experience for training, playing the computer and opening the app each day. Keep your daily streak going and rise from Pawn to King.

YOUR OWN PROFILE
Choose a name and an avatar, and see your level wherever you play.

ALSO NEW
- Sound effects for moves, captures, stars and wins
- Bigger, clearer training screens on iPad
- The app now tells you when a new version is available
- Bug fixes and improvements

### 1.2 — 2026-09-04

NEW MAIN MENU
Fun Chess Master now opens on a proper home screen instead of a tab bar.
Playing, learning, training and settings are all one tap away, and a menu
button on every screen takes you straight back — or starts a new game
without losing your place.

PICK YOUR OPPONENT BY RATING
Choosing "Play vs computer" now opens a level list showing all sixteen
opponents with an approximate Elo for each, so you can see how strong a
level is before you commit to a game.

A BIGGER, CLEANER BOARD
The board now fills the screen on iPhone and iPad, and the pieces scale
with it. Captured pieces moved into a labelled panel underneath, where you
can actually read them, and the move list — which meant very little to
beginners — is gone.

REDESIGNED THROUGHOUT
New colours, new cards, new icons, and full support for dark mode.

NOW IN SEVEN LANGUAGES
English, Spanish, Simplified and Traditional Chinese, Korean, French and
Japanese, switchable any time in Settings.

ALSO IN THIS UPDATE
- Undo moved to the top right, where your thumb expects it
- A sharper difficulty ladder: every level is now genuinely stronger than
  the one below it
- Fixed a layout problem when rotating the device

### 1.1 — 2026-08-27

NEW: Training puzzles! Solve 1,000 hand-picked tactics puzzles across seven difficulty
tiers, from beginner to master. Stuck? Tap Hint to highlight the winning move.

UI and compatibility improvements.

### 1.0 — 2026-08-24

No release notes.
