My fiance and I have different versions and different prices for the same service. Hers costs more than mine, and hers has music and the coach speaks. Mine is silent. Mine isn't allowing me to purchase the training. Neither of us have available updates. I love this and will adjust my review from 1 to 5 stars once I receive feedback. I'm leaving it with 1 star only to grab your attention for the time being. Thank you! Edit: My phone itself was out of date. I didn't update it. The app is perfect!

Missing a lot of features basic to Chess services and the AI makes very lazy blunders. Missing features include: * Random Choice between White or Black * Game History (without having to export it and use an external service) * A great variety of opening lessons (I 'learned' the french, and it only teaches you white's responses, for example) Also the AI blunders at Strong intermediate include: * My piece not being captured while I am just taking pieces like pac-man (+ more)

A great tool to learn the fundamentals. I had been playing chess for years, and only in the past 10 years did I start to learn more about how to play advanced AI and started playing against other people. although the AI will criticize some opening moves as blunders like the kings Indian attack or defense, it does generally encourage fundamental play which is good for anyone without the knowledge. The take backs and observations of any greater disadvantages is nice because it warms you of threats
