## Most critical reviews (4 lowest-rated)

### 3/5 — Well. It kind of works

*2016-10-08*

It is go via text message ...  Which is cool. But most of the time after you make your move and send the board back your move doesn't show on the thumbnail... Which is solvable by clicking into the board... it's an annoying step to have to take. The board zooms in when you click to make your move ... which is really annoying too. 

It works. I guess that's saying something...

### 4/5 — Great, but rough around the edges

*2024-09-28*

App does not display the entire board on my iPhone Mini. I see lines 2-9, but not line one in portrait. Hope this can be fixed :)

### 4/5 — Great start!

*2016-11-30*

Please continue to add features! It will be a great app. Also, please update the picture of the board sent in the message - the position picture does not update properly.

### 5/5 — Easy way to play right away

*2018-08-22*

The easiest way to play go with your friends. None of the hassle of servers, like registration, setting rank or timing. Great for casual games. While downloadable SGFs or letting the other player start first would be nice, this board is definitely worth the dollar.
