Ratings and reviews

Decent until a few weeks ago. The latest changes have been one of the most annoying things I've' ever seen in the app. How can you make a play and end up in the play store or in a rematch 🤦🏽‍♂️. - Apparently from the response that I got to the review it is my fault that after I play a move I ends up in the Amazon app? Nothing changed, still pretty bad for playing bullet, it gets extremely annoying at the end of games, but they have a monopoly now, so they can do what they want 🤷‍♂️

I love this app - it's great :) But I wish there was a way to toggle offline mode. I mostly use this app to solve puzzles on my commute in the subway where there's no signal. More than half of that time is spent with the app giving me "No network - please try again" without offline mode being activated. I try turning my data and wifi off to try forcing it to recognize that its only option is offline mode, but no dice. So I end up not using the app as much as I wish I could.

Game review looks horrible now. I only wish there was an option to go back to the classic look, like how you can turn puzzle points off and go back to elo. edit: the app got worse. Now in puzzles, nearly *every* sacrifice shows the move as brilliant. Other than that, I like the new elo system as I hit well over 2,500 with the old one (less than 700 elo in rapid btw), and I like that I'm getting harder puzzles more often now. I actually have to use my brain in puzzles now.

What's new

Hey, chess-lovers! This new version brings improvements and fixes throughout the app - and some great new features too!

* Level up your Puzzle practice by earning points for every correct move. Keep solving to advance and earn new scoring bonuses!
* Game Review now estimates your rating in that match - and shows how well you played at each stage of the game!
* In Daily Chess, you can now "program" moves to be triggered automatically when your opponent makes a move you expected!

Thank you!
