App provides pretty great advice TBH, though it seems it could use a bit of improvement, figuring out sides of the board from images, or at least make it far less painful to flip the board! (You have to click 3 buttons AND change the position of a piece to get it to remember where your pieces are after the first move after you get the ranks right and flip the board)

no one is talking about this app!! if you just take a picture of your board, it loads within 5 seconds. best off all, the button that say "toggle engine" tells you the next best move and helped me win so much! definitely a 5 star app.

great software, but unnecessarily difficult to move pgn files to a computer. one can only share FEN (not pgn) by email, and FEN cannot be directly opened by chessbase. one also cannot share a whole library and has to send each file separately. I found a workaround using the Dropbox client on my phone, but it is a pity that this strong piece of software has such a poor usability. still 5 stars for the AI.

Thanks for the detailed feedback! The good news is that you can also access your Library in our web app: https://my.chessvision.ai/library and there are more export options there, including exporting all or selected diagrams as a PGN. Feel free to try it out. Also, if you have any questions don't hesitate to send us an email at hello@chessvision.ai
