Happy

Good fun

Dosnt work

Dosnt work with friendle chess

Its pretty good.

I just downloaded the app and it works fine. However I wish there was a board you could edit to map out future moves

Waste of money

No support, doesnt work so dont waste your time or money

Does what it advertises

I especially like that the graphics r universal and look good on the iPad, even though thats not necessary. Which is more than I can say about Chess with Friends, strangely enough. Thanks for coming out with an update to fix the recent break so quickly

Well designed app

Works as expected with good user interfaces and execution. Great for scenario analysis.

Suweat

Very helpful!

Average strength

Very easy to insert your chess with friends matches. However, the strength of the chess engine is only around 1500 elo. Easily beaten by an advanced player.

Useless crap! Doesnt work.

Great salesmanship. Lots of sizzle. But no beef. Nice idea but the app fails to deliver on any of its promise. You cannot use it as a learning tool. The app doesnt let you review the history of moves in the game. I really hate feeling duped.

Very good

Worth my time.

Cheats

Love it. Helps me learn moves.

No longer works with ipad1

Tells you to go to privacy settings, which doesnt exist with ipad1. IOS6+ only.

Suggested features

App works much better and most bugs have been resolved using my iphone5. Three features I would like to see: 1) A save option to be able to review significant games. 2). Dovetailing off the save feature, it would be helpful for those of us who play multiple games simultaneously to be able to have multiple boards available to save, name and reopen as necessary. 3). Ability to cut and past a sequence of moves onto a place on the screen for reference. I often toggle between multiple games and use this app to plan moves and strategies once Ive gotten a feel for my opponent and his or her style experience etc. (I dont use the suggested moves or help feature.) I then cut and past that sequence of moves into notepad or sometimes even a text to myself or take a photo. So i do save them myself. But referencing them in the future when i have imported new games into the app and thus erased my move sequence on the white portion of the screen, is a challenge. Then I find myself cumbersomely toggling between notepad or a pic or a text and this app to input my previous moves but adjust for any variance in my opponents actual moves. This is app allows me to actually to see the board many moves ahead, try multiple game plans etc. and I love playing this However, it would be valuable to have the ability to cut and past my game plan (moves) back into a small space on the screen itself. I play multiple games simultaneously and at times there can be long periods of time between moves and so relying upon memory isnt easy but I often dont want to or have time to rethink my game plan from scratch. Toggling is however a pain. Im happy to explain further via email should that be helpful. Thanks again for a nice start to a great app.

Great App

Works great; no hang ups observed. Better than last one I used which gave bad moves. No bad moves found yet. Easiest to use and provides board for trying optional moves. I.e. love it

Wasted Download

It would probably be a good app, but regardless of what I click it sends me to my homepage.

Screen match

The screen wont match the board an makes it read all kings on the board

David

Take awhile to understand how this works the downloading part of chess game is not there and when I go back some are gone and some just moved once you played awhile with it does ok but not great

Problems not working

Somethings wrong does not work on iPad 3 Right now its a waste on money

Worst one dollar Ive ever spent

Why in the world would you take a screen shot? Idiots

Well done

Features are great. Excellent app to improve your game. You can play out different scenarios to see why certain plays wont work. Very user-friendly. Great at updates and notifications - especially the last one that shows your overall win-loss stats. Would like to be able to see your opponents win-loss record as well. Extremely satisfied.
