What Our Users Say
Don't just take our word for it. Here's what our users have to say about our Android app.
"I'm not sure if it's lacking the old previous notation in the positions. But it's great though."
Tristram Tuyet
"I enjoy the lessons."
Kirk Beeler
"It wouldn't work."
Brenda Wright
"Best app for chess"
Sharda Rahul Gaikwad
"It doesn't work well 😕"
Melinda Clemmons
"good aap"
Gautam Kaushal
"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."
Pete Ansbro
"I'm new but starting to understand"
Anita Rice
"Great app"
Fernando Lugo
"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..."
