ChessUp is a companion app for the ChessUp smart chessboard. The app provides chess game archives and analysis. The app can link with the chessboard over BLE to provide live Ai assistance. The app can also provide an internet connection for the board in order to play remote chess opponents on various chess platforms.

A little turn. A quieter mind. Loopoku is a peaceful path puzzle for iPhone and iPad. Tap the stone tiles to rotate their paths, match every neighbouring end, and bring every path tile together in exactly one closed loop. Locked stones give you a place to begin. Blank stones can rest. Pencil marks help you think things through. There are no losses, move limits or deadlines: take all the time you need. FIND YOUR OWN PACE Daily brings a shared 5×5 garden each day, changing at midnight UTC. Endless lets you choose 4×4, 5×5, 6×6, 7×7 or 8×8, then wander into another garden at the same size whenever you finish. Puzzles are generated with one solution. COME BACK WHEN YOU LIKE Unfinished puzzles, tile orientations and pencil marks are saved on your device. Pick up your Endless garden where you left it, or return to an unfinished Daily. Changing Endless size asks before replacing an unfinished puzzle. Personal rotation counts and active play time are just for your own curiosity, with an option to show them during play. MAKE YOURSELF AT HOME Warm stone and moss-green paths set the scene in Garden Path. Explore deep evergreen Forest, cool Ocean and warm Sunset too, each with its own nature motif. All four palettes support light and dark appearance. Soft tile turns and a completion chime follow Silent Mode and can be switched off. Supported devices offer optional haptics. There is no background music. LITTLE MILESTONES, NO RUSH Nine achievements celebrate your connected gardens and Daily walks. Track them in Settings, even offline. Daily completions need not be consecutive, and reconnecting the same completed garden never counts twice. Game Center connects automatically and syncs achievements with Apple when signed in, not your boards, time or rotations. Offline access or sign-in failure never blocks puzzles. There are no leaderboards. ALL YOURS, FROM THE START Loopoku is free and ad-free. Every puzzle, mode and palette is included. If you would like to support its development, three optional, independent one-time contributions are available in Settings. Each can be purchased once and restored. Contributions unlock nothing and offer no gameplay advantage. Play puzzles offline. No account required to play, no online competition and no native-app analytics.
