Great app !
This app is the perfect companion for chess-book lovers. We can easily follow or analyse moves with the implemented chessboard, which makes it easy when one doesn't have a real chess board at hand.
The books are a little expensive for digital purchases though, but still worth it. Nice work 💯

Best chess learning
This is the best app to learn chess. Simple and effective interface. Great to use on mobile device. Download and use without connection. Larger board than chessable. Larger text than chessable. Better value books. Engine. Some nice free books. Excellent customer support.
Genial
Alles dabei,was Schach-Fan braucht!

Awesome App
I have been using forward chess for a couple of years now and really liking it. Their library keeps growing. Some months ago I had emailed them and requested if a Dover book “Better Chess for Average Players” could be added. I received a reply stating that they would look into my request. After that I didn’t think it would materialise. Today I see they have added the title to their library and another really good Dover book as well. I bought both !!

Great app but what engine?
Really enjoying the app but I was wondering what engine is analyzing the game?
Excellent App
Easy to use, and can do a space repetition traning , with move trainer, sometimes the app gets stuck in move trainer mode forcing to close the app and start again, annoying.
Great content, mediocre software
The content on this is every bit as good as chessable. I am currently working on my first purchase, "is this move safe". An excellent book. The problem is the software is difficult to use and very inefficient. For example, I always want to be in quiz mode, where the solutions are not shown. Sometimes for no reason, I am put into read mode, where the answers are shown. The only way to fix that is to scroll all the way up to the top of the course, which is already a fair distance, even though I'm still in chapter 1, press the quiz mode button, and then scroll all the way down to find where I was. I tried every other button, all of which are very unintuitive in my opinion as a former software developer, and there is no other way to do this. Also, when I reopen the software, it usually loses where I left off, and I have to go hunt for it. I would call chessable professional software, and this relatively amateurish.

Favorite Chess App
The most bang for your buck period.
Review
Easy access to the Chess Books I wanted. Very Accessible!
Wonderful
A wonderful app
I only wish they had more books available
The app does exactly what it is meant to do: it lets you read chess books without moving the pieces yourself. This way the books consume less time and one may read them as a novel if one desires to do so. There are a few competitors on the market but this app simply has the best design.
The only technical problem I’ve encountered is that there are less books in the app than on the website. I don’t know if it is a bug or not but you can simply add them on the website and then they will appear in the app.

Best chess reader
Allows engine analysis of positions and the ability to check what happens if you play something else. Also you can switch the move controls to the side of the screen you prefer. Could do with some tidying up of the analysis, bookmarks and so on. But as it stands it’s the best I’ve found, which is good because you can get books from other publishers on it. Store isn’t exactly cheap though.

One of a kind resource
There are tons of things online. HOWEVER, only Forward Chess has the books we all depend on set up in a clean interactive way with all moves linked to a board so you can review as you read easily. It will greatly increase the speed you can get through books.
Best way to read chess books
The ability to click through moves and new quiz mode feature make this method of reading chess books superior to physical books, and I love physical books. The price tends to better here as well.
Warning you can lose access to purchases
This app just worked for years but now asks for log in and does not recognise my email. Am unable to access my library of purchases!
Best chess app
Probably the best chess app I have used in years. It allows you to go over books digitally if you do not have the GM vision many of us are lacking. Going through variations is a lot easier. So far I have not had any issues with any books. Strongly recommend as the book options are always growing.
Love this app
This app is a game changer.
Kept Crashing
