Both are free to download. Verbal Chess sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Chess Trainer Pro asks for nothing beyond the download.
Chess Trainer Pro holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.5. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 13 and 5 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 86% of Verbal Chess's written reviews are positive against 80% of Chess Trainer Pro's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
