I got this purely for setting up positions to analyze and save. Oddly I could not find these features easily available on every other chess app out there. Seems pretty basic to be able to set up the board to a particular position to analize and see what the computer would do and be able to save it. But sadly this was absent from all the popular choices out there. Glad I found this one. Thank you for making doing this so easy!
In the last 2 weeks, I got 2 notations corrupted by this app. I did analysis and save. Then when it loads the game, it will result in error. I checked PGN file in-text editor, the notation is completely messed up. The move or piece can wrong. Update: I think the issue is the variation can be duplicated. Use auto analysis. Then when you make an alternative move suggested, it will duplicate that variation. Then I have to delete the first one. This might lead to corrupted notation
The engine is inferior to a level 5 on the chess free app. I pitted their moves and everytime the chess free app came out on top. Wasn't even close. I wanted to use this app to increase my accuracy but it just doesn't stand up to the test. Edit: I played AI vs AI to see why I was getting blown out in just the openings. I can't afford to spend a single penny on any resources currently so that's the method I came up with to learn a little more about where I was making mistakes.
Please let the application keep calculating even when it is minimized from android window or the phone in sleep mode or doing other tasks so that no time is lost in deep calculation. Some chess analysis apps can do this. Thank you! I hesitate to buy the pro version because, I fear it has no feauture like the continuous calculation when the phone is asleep or window minimized which cancels the calculation and time is lost. Thank you anyway!
Really good, decent board options but kinda sad that colors can't be custom. Interesting thing though, I couldn't click the ad. It was a book avaliable on kindle and I wanted to check it out but the app crashed. Weird. Would suggest more piece style options but eh. It's still great the way it is. 5 stars.
Excellent software which allows analysis of games and positions , sharing of games or positions in various formats ( PGN/ FEN/ Text / diagrams etc). We can annotate games and save it. We can also store games in named folders and retrieve it. My small suggestion is to include an option to play with the engines on various strengths.( I know it is an analysis software but this functionality could be very useful for chess players.
I'm currently having problem that whenever I make a move, it automatically reverts back, is it a kind of bug? I really love your app, and not able to analyze stops me from learning, Kindly look into it. Regards. Quick Update: Reinstalled the App. Works Smooth. Thank You, Bro.
Hello! Thanks for this beautiful application, Is it possible to add two more options to the app in next release? First an animation to moves. Second the auto replay moves must to be setable to 03 04 and 05 till we reach to one second, because today I wanted to record a chess video from my pgn, but the setting to 0 was very fast and 1 second was a bit slow. thanks in advance....
FANTASTIC app! been looking for something like this for a while. even the free version (which I'm currently using) is a great tool for analysis. i feel like my game has already improved in just a short time using this app. massive thank you to the devs for creating such a wonderful tool. honestly, this free version has everything you need, but im planning on purchasing the full version simply to support the devs for doing such fantastic work.
The engine is not working properly on my device. I was using it from 4-5 months. Now it is not analyzing the games and stopping. Otherwise the app is great. Please tell a solution for it as soon as possible.
Amazing and intuitive real time analysis! As a beginner, i find this very helpful! For example, to quickly check opening lines and how they are evaluated by a good engine - lovely UI, lots of detail for a mobile screen without clutter. Enjoying it!
I have one of those late 1980s classic Saitek Kasparov endorsed electronic chess boards. After a game, I never know where I went wrong and this sorts out the issue. Otherwise also very good for checking and testing opening ideas, plus other functions....and its free
Good app for studying, I particularly appreciate the design , clean and clear. I miss the possibility to load from google drive, where my database is stored ; I will surely consider buying the pro version when this feature is added.
Wow!!!!!!! Amazing. This app is great. Must download it. It should be mandatory for all the chess players. I am playing chess since 6 years and my Game improved a lot after downloading this app. I want this app to have the most number of users. Mecca of chess-lichess. PUBG of chess-lichess.......... I'm loving it!!!!!!! Don't create a mess, Just play lichess
Doesn't save your games properly. I have to constantly re position my board when I'm trying to play multiple games. Saves and then when I come back the board is reset.
Both the set of pieces have the same color tried installing and uninstalling still it's the same very bad app won't recommend it to any one.
On xiaomi Redmi 7, the black pieces doesn't appear in the black color, appears on White color, the hawei option is enabled, I would like to buy the pro version, but with this bug it's not possible to get.
The engine doesnt work. Thats the main reason I use this app. It allows for quick engine analysis. Why dont you simply have an engine like stockfish 5 or something? I dont care about strength, I just want quick, powerful analysis. This NNUE nonsense doesnt work man. This app is now almost useless to me
On of the best engine so far, with good analysis If they could add also Komodo engine to it, it becomes dope Sometimes I do prefer to do deep analysis with different engine to help get a better understanding of the position
Can't distinguish white and black pueces in Poco F2 dark mode. The app doesn't show in the individual override list. Tried to contact the developers and no response.
Great app. But the pro version doesn't allow you to castle. Even though I click for a new board and move some pieces by the time I'm about to castle it doesn't move. Sad.
It has problem with SF14 when NNUE is activated.on pro version as well. Problem is not SF file because I tried on droidfish and other apps and worked well but here only works when NNUE is off and when turn NNUE on it doesn't work. This problem wasn't on SF13
analyze this a great app for chess players to share there games and save and doing analysis but the thing is that the chess player who are starting the chess in online class they use engine analysis and solves the position so my kind request is that you can create a password to start an engine analysis that so parents can put password on that and after uninstall and reinstall the password should not be changed thanks in advanced
I love this app and just updated to pro. Had some initial problems downloading pgns. Asim was extremely helpful and patient in helping me resolve the issue. This app is brilliant and I cannot imagine chess life without it.
This app is very good analyzing positions on the go! I enjoy using this app and i use it very often to analyze positions.
This is a chess tool, not a game. The only downside is that it crashes randomly.
The app is great but the recent version has a bug due to which the pieces all appear pure white. Please fix this ASAP. Ps- I've tried the Huawei feature it doesn't work
Ops! after upgrading to NNUE apps doesn't work. Just hanging even though l am using Google pixel 3 XL... it was perfect before...cannot choose the highest hash memory ....please fix the issues..
This, aside from Fritz for PC computers, is the best chess app I have ever used on an android phone, ever; 100% absolutely. It's just easy to use. It has this menu screen that opens up these nice big icons and all you have to do is click which one you want. Notation is easy to edit. Games are easy to transfer to DF chess app (also a free app). Notation is formatted in a straightforward and simple way. Just a great analysis app for the good ol fashion human chess player, love it.
