Ratings and reviews

What happened to game reviews?! The new version is awful. Absolutely horrible experience, and it's so jarring to use it now. Wish I could install the old version. Smh. Puzzles are also still really buggy and often freeze (every 3-4 puzzles). I do puzzles way more than games, so it's a huge issue for me. Paying 120/yr, I expected better. I cancelled premium and wow, the experience is absolutely awful as a free user. Goodbye. Going back to ad-free Lichess now.

Wonderful app. Only issue is 2 things. 1) It doesn't seem I'm able to do a lot in the app that others seem to do without issue, namely playing certain scenarios (like setting up a position and playing it. I can't set up a position if it's too ridiculous, like 10 queens vs a normal set up or something like that, yet I've seen plenty of others do it. 2) Leaving the app for a brief moment leads to an "abandonment." I just lost a game because I went to another app for less than 30 seconds

It would be nice if the app was customizable for people with disabilities. I have Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) which is a muscle degenerative disease and I have lost a lot of function in my hands. I have lost lots of games from not being able to push the pieces on the screen down fully or from misclicking. Pretty soon I will lose all ability to play. I would like the designers of the app to find a way to make it respond to voice or come up with some way for people with disabilities to play.

What’s new

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