Excellent app to improve quickly. Have been looking for such an app for awhile and although there are some software quirks still inherent, they are minor. Enjoy the repertoire builder functionality and the ability to rehearse lines over and over and over until instilled in my head. No way could i have improved so rapidly without the use of this app...it is also addictive.

Very clunky and un-intuitive interface. No context-sensitive menu. You should be able to select an opening and start training in 2-3 steps. Good luck with that. Almost impossible to even find how to do that at all. Not to mention the ridiculous portrait mode for the app, having to rotate the tablet each time you make a selection in a list, as those are landscape. Very sorry I purchased this app, even more sorry for the time wasted to figure out how to use it.

Really excellent tool for building and learning an opening repertoire. There are still some bugs, and it doesn't always play well with imported files, but it still might be the best Android app of its type so far. Chess Openings Trainer Pro is the closest, but this does more (e.g. multiple possible repertoire moves) and the interface is better.
