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.
Good but still needs some work
I’ve struggled to learn how to play chess, and this is the first app I’ve been able to understand…mostly. Once you get to learn the pawn, the game suddenly adds in pieces to avoid or capture without noting it or reminding you of their movement patterns. To a total newbie, this was immediately chaos. The checkmate lesson/practice was essentially impossible. Too many pieces to keep track of right as the knowledge is still fresh. It was like being thrown into the deep end of the pool after a 15 min swimming lesson. The pieces should’ve had a lot more practice that gradually introduced obstacles, and the checkmate level should’ve stayed much simpler for that first lesson. Also, I find it off-putting that the developer has his face everywhere, as well as his own games and moves as examples, as well as a way of writing the lessons that is absolutely giving narcissist. Listen, I get that you’re good at chess but you don’t have to center that in your app design. Make it about the users, not yourself. Lastly, there’s a huge lag when you tap the lesson levels, it takes about 10 seconds to actually load. I’ve only gotten through the piece lessons so far, but I do appreciate that I’ve learned more about chess with this app than any other. I hope it continues to be helpful!

Great lessons
I have been learning a lot and am improving. I’m a beginner and find the different levels quite challenging. The only glitch has been trying to create an account. For weeks that part of the app,has been down.
Broken and Buggy
Can’t make an account and keep getting errors.
Bom app👍
Muito bom o app. simples porém consegue nos fazer evoluir
Lovely hubby
Good
Broken Feedback link
The Feedback link is broken, probably since Chess.com now distributes the app. It appears that everyone believes the app to be perfect and any feedback would be a waste.
I wonder how long it will take Chess.com to add advertising to this app.

Стильные шахматы
Обожаю именно этот тренажер шахмат за визуальный стиль. Каждое упражнение оформленно с фантазией.
Decent content, but dead app
There are a few bug in this app that don’t let you progress properly. It doesn’t seem to be actively maintained anymore and when you try to contact support you get an error message. Even so, good content in digestible lessons that would be valuable to a beginner. Fun mini games that help with understanding strategy.

Great app but can’t afford it
Adds(kinda)
I like it but it never gives you an opportunity to test what you have learned in a game and adds always keep popping up like buy premium magnus trainer
Дорогие разработчики
Классное приложение для обучения начинающих. Спасибо☕️
Very buggy and weird chess board and set
Didn’t like it, buttons don’t work and the chess set is very awkward
Great! Needs some bugs fixed
I really like this app so far as someone who knows the basics of chess, but wants to improve their tactics. However, I have run into the app shutting off randomly and I cannot make an account at all; it seems that they do not have a help desk either.
