Great app! ### 4/5 — Add explanations, please *2025-10-28* Problems are good, app is conveniently designed. But can you please add at least AI explanations? ### 4/5 — Manque un mode “exploration” *2025-09-04* L’appli est simple d’usage. Je trouve sympa la proposition de trois paires de tsumego de différentes difficultés, et appréciable d’avoir quand même la possibilité d’en faire davantage si on veut. Le seul truc qu’il me manque c’est la possibilité de jouer les coups de l’adversaire autrement que de la manière dont ils ont été programmés, pour tester des réponses différentes. Ça ne devient possible qu’après la séquence de coups programmés. C’est dommage. ### 5/5 — Idéal *2025-08-17* Tous les jours depuis plus d’un an. Que du bonheur, à petites doses régulières ! ### 5/5 — 5점 만점 *2025-08-01* 재밌고 세련되고 난이도별로 있어서 좋습니다. 이 앱은 바둑팝(다른 바둑앱)에서 바둑 기술들을 배우고 오면 더 좋습니다. ### 5/5 — Minimalistic, Gets the Job Done *2025-07-08* There are more than enough problems on this app to keep you going day after day and if you want more, it’s just $13 to purchase almost a thousand more. There aren’t a ton of options but as a source for daily Tsumego problems, TsumegoPro is the way to Go. Also, no ads. Just you and the board. ### 4/5 — Sometimes it says resolved when black loses. *2025-06-27* Some of the questions, though I am playing as black, the correct answer is for white to win. This is very confusing and discouraging, especially when I work so hard, then just to realize that the answers that the app is giving me is for white to win, and there was no way for me to resolve the question. Please fix this. Thank you! ### 4/5 — Zu wenig Erklärung *2025-06-07* Das Design etc ist gut und die Übungen erscheinen mir auch in Ordnung allerdings fehlt mir als Anfänger die Möglichkeit Erläuterungen zu Problemen zu bekommen. Manchmal ist mir nicht klar, warum die Lösung die Lösung ist. ### 4/5 — Недостаток *2025-05-29* Хорошое приложение, НО в одной сложной задаче на ко жизнь группы: НЕВЕРНО. А в следующей задаче поставил на ко ВЕРНО. И непонятно: ставить на ко очередную группу или нет. ### 4/5 — 밑으로 갈때 나가는 것좀 고쳐주세요ㅜㅜ *2025-05-11* 그. 오늘의 학습문제는 기초, 뭐 중급 그런 문제를 푸는 것은 매우 만족스럽습니다. 그런데. 기초에서 중급으로 중급에서 고급으로 갈때 나가서 눌러야 되는게 아니라, 화살표로( 하나로 ) 연결되어 있었으면 좋겠습니다! 나머지는 다 만족합니다!!!! ### 5/5 — Great app!!! *2025-04-27* I’m just discovered the game and use this to learn ### 4/5 — Good but questionable problem rankings *2025-04-24, version 3.07* The app is good but it sometimes thinks easy problems are hard or hard problems are easy. Today for example the easy daily problems were harder than both medium and one of the hard ones. ### 5/5 — Очень хорошо *2025-04-14* Задачи разделены по уровням хорошо, помогают понять принцип го ### 3/5 — Честный отзыв *2025-03-20* Хорошие задачи , хороший режим игры с рандомными задачами и рейтингом . Минус звезды за то что в платных задачах , к примеру на тесудзи - куча ошибок . Задачи простые и имеют несколько решений , но приложение принимает только один ответ … ### 5/5 — Best Go Puzzle App *2025-03-17* I have tried many go apps and this is by far the best puzzle app , I learnt ALOT from this app ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Color design *2026-05-16* Sorry but it’s too bright in tasks menu. Pls get back to chill colors ### 1/5 — Поиграть в Го не получится *2026-02-20* Нет задачи тренировки, от того «правильные» решения кажутся странными. Белые камни есть почему-то нельзя («ошибка» - пишет программа»), закрыть границы раньше времени, увеличив себе площадь - тоже не дает. Есть одно единственное решение на каждый ход (что очень странно для Го без описания задачи) и это не самый лучший ход! Но что говорить - Го творческая и стратегическая игра. Не линейная. Поэтому ожидать, что в приложении удалось сделать хоть как-то приближенную версию игры - наверное, странно. ### 1/5 — Do Not Buy All-Access Pack *2025-09-22, version 3.07* (1) You don’t get access (2) Apple won’t refund even though you raise the issue ### 1/5 — Играешь сам с собою *2025-03-08* Нет не какой игры, только возможно по очередно ставить камни различного цвета ### 1/5 — Not for beginners, not helpful at all *2025-02-28, version 3.07* I don’t understand what I’m supposed to be learning from this. Basically it shows your position, and you guess, and either you guessed right, or you keep getting it wrong until you finally hit the enter button. And you repeat that until suddenly it says “solved“ without telling you what about what you’re seeing is solved.It sure doesn’t look solved to me. I don’t know what I’m supposed to be learning from this, but I’m not learning anything. ### 1/5 — Ничего не понял *2024-10-20* Что делать надо? ### 1/5 — Вы от него не избавитесь *2024-09-23* Это вирус какой-то, а не приложение. Постоянно пытается списать деньги. И от него невозможно избавиться. Предлагает только перенести в библиотеку приложений. Полного удаления нет! Будьте осторожны! ### 1/5 — THE APP IS WRONG *2023-05-20, version 3.06* Idiotic app says actual checkmate moves are "wrong". Never explains why. So stupid. ### 1/5 — Purchases do not work *2022-09-29, version 3.05* I purchased extra problems and they never appeared. The restore purchase button does not work. The app has not been updated in years so maybe the developer has abandoned it. ### 1/5 — No explinations *2022-09-12, version 3.05* No explanation on how to use the app, and what the info supplied means. Also no explanation on why a move was right or wrong. Not recommended for a beginner like me. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — 普通に神 *2026-08-18* 普通に勉強になるしありがたい ### 5/5 — Add controller support *2026-08-08, version 3.10* Would like controller support ### 5/5 — 좋네요 *2026-07-12* 저는 초보중에 왕초보인데요 처음엔 전혀 이해안되고 정말 모르겠는데요 계속하다보니 느낌이 조금 들어오네요 아직도 왜 거기세다 둬야 하는지는 모르겠지만요 좋은 앱 만들어주셔서 고맙습니다 ### 5/5 — Great Problems! *2026-07-04, version 3.10* I am just beginning to learn Go and these puzzles have given me a lot more intuition for good play. The apps works great and the interface is friendly ### 5/5 — Хороший задачник *2026-06-07* Мне нравится что можно проверить все комбинации. ### 5/5 — Aleksey *2026-05-13* For about a year, I didn’t want to install this app because I didn’t understand what it is. But now I’m on the move and solving Go problems. ### 5/5 — 매우 훌륭한 바둑학습 앱 *2026-04-10* 유료 버전으로 설명을 달아놓거나 강의영상을 볼 수 있게 하는 것이 좋을 것 같습니다. ### 5/5 — Great for daily problems *2026-02-01, version 3.07* Great for daily Go problems. I think it’s an Apple thing, but I wish the game mode notification wouldn’t pop up every time you start the app. ### 5/5 — Великолепный сборник *2026-01-12* Великолепнейший сборник задач, отсутствие описание задачи считаю бонусом для игрока, как в реальной игре нужно додуматься выжить здесь или задавить. ### 5/5 — Great problem curation *2025-12-29* I use this every day to stay sharp. Since ios got the popup about the game mode, the upper nav panel “< Daily problems” is harder to reach after opening app - I wait until the popup goes away. Can you move navigation? --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
