非常好，不是托，应用是免费的，然后里面的AI还是挺强的，最高的水准大概有个职业的可能吧，如果设备好的话，然后副盘的话也可以实时有那个标记，然后江沙的话也会有提示，非常不错

Gelungene App

Deutsche Sprache funktioniert nicht
Die App gefällt mir grundsätzlich und die Schachanalyse ist interessant. Im App Store wird Deutsch als unterstützte Sprache angegeben. Mein iPhone ist auf Deutsch eingestellt, trotzdem erscheint SmallFish ausschließlich auf Englisch und in den iOS-Einstellungen gibt es keine Möglichkeit, die App-Sprache auf Deutsch umzustellen. Bitte beheben.

Trash

Don’t waste money. I regret buying this. Interface is horrible in the first place. There is no accuracy indicator, and not very helpful in analysis. Chessigma is free and far better than this.
