### 4/5 — One of the best

*2022-04-30, version 2.3*

Very thorough and designed for the chess fan.

However, I’ve noticed that games and the analysis table freeze when I attempt to promote a pawn. Can you fix this? I actually have a timed game that relies on pawn promotion.

### 5/5 — Very good.

*2017-11-03, version 2.3*

Recently downloaded this app.  Like what I see.  Recommend.

### 5/5 — GR8 app

### 5/5 — Great chess app

*2016-07-31, version 2.3*

I have tried several chess apps and this is by far the best one I have come across

### 1/5 — Will not open!!!

*2014-10-09, version 1.09*

Have had this app for over a year. Use to love it. I even bought the premium. The app has not worked for over a month now. It will not open. App support is not there as far as I can tell.

### 5/5 — Great App!

*2014-09-19, version 1.09*

This has been a great app & I'm so glad I downloaded it!! I never really played chess before I downloaded this app so the ease of learning has been good for me! The members have been great as well!!

### 5/5 — Great game w/ friends.

*2014-07-21*

Fantastic!

### 5/5 — Nice app

*2013-10-25, version 1.07*

One of my favorite Chess correspondence app. It's easy to navigate and set up a game. I like the board and piece layout it comes with. 

Two minor things that can be a con:
1. Since it's a newer app, there are as many players to play against as compared to other similar chess apps. This ok, I have played some of the same people over again and make some friends.

2. I wish when I was on game my phone wouldn't dim out light and try to go to power save mode. I know other apps out there will keep background lit as long as I have a game open. This would be nice to have added. 

Overall I really like the app. Good software and a good place to meet some rival chess friends.

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2013-08-21, version 1.06*

One of the best chess apps available.
Great interface with easy navigation.
10/10

### 4/5 — Very Stable, Good Community.

*2013-07-21, version 1.05*

Very well built app with great player base. Wish it had a Vs. CPU mode.
