Your dating chats, reviewed like chess games. Upload screenshots of a conversation and Texting Theory analyzes every message like a grandmaster analyzing a match. Each move gets a rating — Brilliant, Great, Best, Excellent, Good, Book, Inaccuracy, Mistake, Miss, or Blunder — plus a Blue ELO score for your side of the board, an accuracy breakdown, an advantage graph, and a game name you didn't ask for ("The Beast-Hand Opening — Weird Country Deflection"). Then comes the roast. A post-game verdict written by a coach who has seen your messages and is disappointed in you specifically. HOW IT WORKS • Screenshot a conversation (any messaging app) • Upload one or more screenshots — order doesn't matter, we sort it out • Get the full game review: move-by-move ratings, ELO, accuracy, eval graph • Step through every move with an explanation of what it did to your position • Ask for better alternatives when a move goes wrong THE LEADERBOARD Save a review to publish it and see where it ranks against every other conversation that survived analysis. Climb from Certified Patzer to Unbeatable (allegedly). Comment on other people's games. Regret your own. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT Nothing goes public unless you save it. Screenshots are processed for analysis and not stored on our servers — only the reviews you choose to save are kept, and you can delete any game or your whole account, in the app, anytime. Texting Theory is entertainment. The ELO is a joke. The roast is a joke. Your last text, however, really was an Inaccuracy.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Texting Theory at 5.0 against ChessBot's 4.4. Texting Theory also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 59%) and in-app purchases (none vs 6). ChessBot's advantage is ratings volume (55 vs 3). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Texting Theory holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ChessBot has 55 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 59% of ChessBot's written reviews are positive against 100% of Texting Theory's.
