Good app for learning chess. UI is intuitive enough to figure it out, and once you progress enough, there is a host of grat apps from the same developer to take your game to higher levels.
This is the app with only limited navigation. This is the free app which has more ads than chess pieces. This is the app with learning on the various chess pieces which can only be accessed through payment. So yes it's free: but just not very good.
doesn't really show you how to play as a beginner. gonna look for another app. if you get a question/ move wrong it doesn't matter because it doesn't tell you how to fix it. it just moves on 🤔😒
It's garbage, asking you questions without telling you anything, not worth your time I like chess and want to learn more and this definitely isn't the way to do it. Try moving pieces and it tells you you are wrong, then does the exact same move and says its the correct move. Asks questions about jargon and doesn't tell you before testing you...
I'm not sure if it's lacking the old previous notation in the positions. But it's great though.
I've enjoyed learning to play the chess basics using this app. It has made me think for myself without rushing me.
Repeats each time I open it from start to end fix this but it is pretty good for learning.
I would love explanations for some of the exercises. There's an answer, but I don't always understand WHY the answer is the answer.
I find it good. But would sometimes like to ask why this or that is the best move . I am only using the free version so I am only getting very basics
Helps me think more and see things in a more tactical way. Not just for kids.
I bought the course it is very easy and explains evetything with care... 💜
Just game is very helpful and giving individuals The experience confidence strategies to come ungrateful and successful chess master

Best app for chess
It wouldn't work.
GOOD FOR CHILDREN
Great combination of theory and animated exercises. For fifty years I have always been at best a beginner because I did not know where to start learning. I took up GO because I could not do justice to Chess. This app is the guide I have been seeking. Sometimes I am not clear what the exercise expects me to do, but so far it is patient with me and I am learning the concepts of tactical moves.
