Excellent teaching and training app

For years I have wanted to be coached in chess and up to now I could not find a way that I could afford. This app fulfills that need and also gives me someone to play,since I have no one close who plays. How often do you get the opportunity to play the master. Thank you Magnus!

Poor graphics

The design of the pieces makes them very difficult to distinguish. Additionally the functionality to save progress doesn’t work

Use this to get better at chess

Very good to get better at chess

Fun app

The skills that make you a better player, especially if you are into blitz games, are gamified. It's great fun. The app is a bit glitchy and the games are light on explanation. The help and support functions are nonexistent. But it's just you against the app, so you can eventually figure it out and move on. I think I play better now than I did before I started using the app. I think I visualize the board better. For the cost of this app, I hope so.

Subscription based

Expensive way to buy a chess course. A one off payment would have been sufficient.
