Good engine, ok interface

The game plays well and for those that are good players, it probably offers a great challenge. For a total beginner like me, it works, but it takes time to learn the interface and the tutor mode is not very helpful

Fix the crashes!

Game is great but constantly crashes forcing me to uninstall and reinstall

Keeps crashing on iPhone17 Pro Max

I can't use the app on my iPhone but I can on my iPad. Hoping the Developers can fix asap

Exciting XG mobile news

Extreme Gammon is the defacto best BG bot on the market and this is the mobile version. The company has been sold recently to the founder of Uber, so hopefully some much needed updates and AI involvement are on the way. Fingers crossed as there are only four BG apps worth using on the App Store in my humble opinion and this is one.

So disappointed

I thought “Ooh XG! This means the AI is gonna be so good it won’t have to cheat”. Then after hours and hours of play, all of a sudden, every blot I expose, it hits it. With out fail. Then during the end game as I’m trying to get home, I get an Acey Duecey 3 times in a row. That was it. App deleted. I thought you were better than that XG. So disappointed.
