Go4Go的棋谱怎么叕打不开了啊?

如题

Useless

Four out of 5 features are in Chinese or Japanese language only. One feature presents pro games, mostly from Korea and China leagues. Top pro tournaments like Honinbo or Kisei are not presented The replay mode is very unpredictable. Sometimes jumps some 50 or more moves forward. Wouldn’t buy it again.

Deceptive marketing do not buy

This app is basically unusable if you don’t speak mandarin and is not integrated to go4go archive.
I got this because there was no go4go app for iPhone, but on the actual app it’s just links to free publicly available databases e.g. fox Weiqi, and archives in mandarin. Considering the advertising this is a deceptive way to rip you off for 20 quid

Great app!

Very useful and convenient app for studying professional games! But I wanted to know if I can change a language in the app? Thank you!

Great App

I use it every day to download professional games from go4go and review.

拍照儲存到sgd功能

拍照儲存到sgd功能幾乎不可用,你們有測試過嗎?現在市場上單識別棋子的能力已經很高,請問可以改善一下嗎?

Unable to receive help from developer.

For some reason, my original review has been removed from here. I tried emailing the developer three times now, and each time it comes back “return to sender”. He seemed responsive after he replied to my review, but now I’m unable to contact him about my issues with the app. Unable to give a better rating until this is resolved.

Response from developer

Updated: Mail service recovered. Please try to send email again. (Shortcut: Use Go Eye/About/Feedbacks to auto fill the email address and app version). -----Old response----- To seek immediate help, you could send to feedbacks@goeye-app.com. But anyway, I will answer the questions here. First of all, most questions are caused by being new to Go Eye. Let's jump to answer quickly. - "Importing games is a pain! " There are at least 10 more convenient ways to import but you only use the most painful way. It supports importing SGFs(Single SGF file, zipped or tar'ed)from airdrop, dropbox, email attachment, iTunes (which might be obsolete on new Mac after Apple updated iTunes), and web page by tapping the SGF URL(zip/tar links as well) link directly in one or two seconds! Let me know if you get problems doing all these. e.g., open your iOS filer, tap the SGF file and choose "Copy to Go Eye" - "The tree view doesn’t scroll to the current move automatically as I play out variations" - There is an option in settings which enables the "auto show variations" (Session 2 in settings). "when modifying variations, you can only delete one move at a time" You can long tap the variation icon, when the icon shakes (like deleting an app in iOS desktop page), tap "-" to delete a variation. -"the stone numbering system is broken, as stones played in spots that had previously been occupied (like in a koi fight) are given the number of the stone that was previously there". Not sure what screen you are referring, in the main board page, it shows current number. In book page view, as it shows the ko chain, it will show the earliest number. Please give an example through email or other ways. -Overall, the entire UI is cumbersome compared to apps that cost much less. I can say most people love Go Eye because of its beautiful UI. -you cannot organize games into folders, but rather into “groups”, which can’t be reordered once created. Extremely inconvenient for organizing games. You can reorder them by dragging, or selecting games (press edit to enter editing mode for game list) and move them to other groups easily. -The Augmented Reality view and 3D views are neat, but not very useful, and you can’t zoom to make to Augmented reality table larger or smaller, which is also ridiculous. For AR, you need to zoom in your device instead of gesture! -The “help” section is severely outdated, with pictures and iconography from previous versions of the app, which makes it almost useless in learning the functionality. Apologize for the outdated help. This is a big problem of Go Eye. It has little document on its richest features. Most of the great features and small details are to be discovered by users or by asking the developer through emails. Will try to have a great document of Go Eye in the future. -- All in all, I very much regret purchasing this instead of EasyGo Pro, or even SmartGo Kifu, which is more expensive. The ONLY advantage of this app is that it has good integration with websites like go4go for following professional games. Perhaps this app is really only for that purpose, but if that’s the case, no need for it to be so expensive. For reviewing and annotating your own sgf’s,, it is very unsatisfactory. I hope that you will feel lucky instead as you buy a better app with half price after you discover the greatness of Go Eye. Most users love it and gave very high ratings. Thanks. P.S. I really appreciating your posting the detailed descriptions of the problems instead of just rating one 1-star and leaving a brief ambiguous bad comments :)

J’aime

Très bonne appli cependant depuis que j’ai un clavier en coréen, Go eye se met entièrement en coréen. Comment changer la langue svp?

Good

Nice app!

Excellent

La version 3.0.2 est pleinement fonctionnelle. Excellente application.

Great app

Excellent app for reviewing games (your games or games found on Internet). The authors is responsive and has quickly corrected a bug on version 3.0 which only affected iOS 9.x 32 bits IPad devices.

Good apps, but please...

New current version have some problem. Please solve asap.
When I saw my game, many time does not have response, I need to re-open many times

Please add functions for us, it will helpful for me.
1. share SGF file to computer, or e-mail.
2. Make one-paper page for print out. (only main game is enough)

I give you 5 stars for this app, but I need to minus 1 star for your current version bug.

Response from developer

The problem is fixed. It affects iPad pro in portrait mode. Thanks for sending the crash reports and spending a lot of time communicating with the developer. Thanks for your great support, Alisa!

还不错

我觉得5.99镑很值。但是有几个地方。
1. 能不能出个选项把棋谱按完全时间排序。我手动排了200多,非常浪费时间。
2. 经常闪退。
谢谢。

Newest update crashes and won't load

Newest update won't load. Support page has no support email. I had it in the past but have lost it. I am running 5.1.1 on a 2nd Gen iPad. Liked the program until this latest update.

Happy to revise review if I can get a resolution.

I would not recommend anyone update to the newest ver....for now any way.

The problem was fixed soon after seeing the feedback and review Thanks for reporting the issue.

勉強アプリ

Smartgo Kifu と連携すれば最強の勉強アプリになりますね。

ただ、カメラマーク押してもカメラが起動せずアルバムが表示されたり、Smartgo Kifu のように直感的な操作ができるよう改善して欲しい。

The best GO application

I tested almost all GO related applications running on iOS, and I confirm that GO-eyes is the best! You can down load recent games of world top professional players timely, and application records what you have downloaded already, so that you do not waste your time to download again the same games. There are lots more functionalities that you will love them. (Such as showing game tree and image of variations, create PDF image, exporting SGF files in Zip format...) I recommend this application!
ほとんど全てのiOSで動く囲碁ソフトを試しましたが、囲碁の目がベストです。最新の世界のプロ棋士の棋譜も直ぐにダウンロード出来ますし、既にダウンロードしたか管理されているので、同じ棋譜を重複してダウンロードすることがありません。他にも沢山の役に立つ機能があります。変化図をイメージ付きでツリー表示したり、PDFで棋譜を表示したり、sgfファイルをZIP形式で出力したり。おすすめです!
