O stars. Novice courses have not been set or available for use for the past 3 days. Support has not respond to ema

Good App

This is great, for 1 to 3 dollars you get 10 to 30 descriptive and complete lessons.

Very Polished

Very well made. Enjoyed the courses and learned a lot.

Just bad

This app has a lot of historic games to go through, but provides no context,guide, or reasoning. That app also missis on a few basic skills such as a two bishop mate. You dont have to drive the king into a corner, but the writers say you do.

My favorite chess app

The best Chess app for learning and walkthroughs. Always new content.

Best Chess Tutorial

I have tried many chess tutorial apps and this is the best by far. The authors are international players and good writers too. Recommended.

Awesome

Well designed. New lessons are very affordable and the free lessons will keep you busy for a while. Very happy with this. Just what I was looking for.

Worth Every Penny

Outstanding!

A solid premise with a buggy execution

I really want to love this app. The idea is excellent, and the course I struggled through (struggled in the user interface sense, not the chess sense) was very good, if a little short. But unfortunately navigating the lesson was difficult. The app doesnt always respond to swiping as intended. Also, navigating the variations resulted in the app getting "confused". (Not to mention me.) I hope the developer continues to improve the app and correct the significant flaws in the UI. Until then, its hard to recommend this app.

Good and useful content

I found the openings by Altounian and Perelshteyn very useful and I was able to use the ideas immediately in a tournament! Love the ease of use too. Very good and broad content. I’d like more comprehensive tournament coverage.

Not all is well!

One star for not delivering on what is promised. If you tell people a diploma is awarded after any course is passed then make the diplomas available. Not a big deal until you get no reply from the company day after day. On the chess itself, so many games are left hanging with no final outcome. And wow, this company offers so many courses, all for a price. I know as I have purchased a lot of them. But no more until things are fixed. Also perhaps the "free" should be taken off the icon. With some minor correction I would give this app four star if not a five.

Cheap Icon

Cheap-looking "free" icon Pretty good otherwise
