Ratings and reviews

I honestly love this app a lot, definitely the best way to play chees mobile or on pc. My only complaints are that the app is a bit unrefined in some ways. when a game ends the coach voice interrupts my music by lowering the volume, which would be fine if it didn't make me close the app to get it back to normal. There are no major problems, but I think it just could be refined a bit.

I would give this a 5 for the game play. The coaching and game review are 5+! I'm giving it a 3 because there are a lot of people on the app who will abandon the game the moment they think they are losing. You can report them for it but I can't tell yet if the devs actually do anything about it. Been playing regularly for a month and some days every other player abandoned. Had 3 in 30 min of play today. Hope they are enforcing good sportsmanship.

the chess generally works fine but there are some significant issues that affect my play. I mainly play 1|0 so if you do not then these may not apply to you: - the intro banner before games start often results in 2 seconds going by before I can move at all. In a match with 60 seconds that is significant. - It will often display a "reconnect" message when I am having no latency issues and the game is going fine. This is distracting - I have more issues but I ran out of characters
