Works great, I love having a quick way to setup a board while reading a chess book with just a scan. Then I can play along, get analysis, or even start from the current position against the computer. Outputting a game to a video file is simply brilliant. Adding the move list to the side of the board in the video would be a pretty cool addition. Make a pro version so you can take my money.

Dear Jon, thanks for suggestion about restricting invalid moves. We will try to add this feature in later versions. BTW the position markers already available in the latest release.

Have been looking for a reliable chess scanner that could handle both books and, especially, screen shots for online sources. Works great, with only an occasional (very infrequent) scanning error that is easily corrected in the program itself. Being able to export to my preferred chess program is also exceptionally easy. Just what I've been looking for.

Dear John, thank you so much for your feedback. You can report bad recognition using the top right button in Edit mode. This will help us to improve scanning feature.

Great tool to take pictures of a position and load it into an engine. Sometimes it asks which way the pawns are moving and I've never had the answer be anything other than forward. Sometimes it rotates the picture 180 degrees and sometimes it doesn't. I wish it would just load the image as the picture was taken. The engine analysis would be better if stayed on and I didn't have to press the evaluate button after every move. After awhile the app just stops working and I need to reinstall.

Hi, Michael! Thanks for feedback. Regarding the question about pawns, please note that it's about black pawns to detect the correct direction of the board․ What concerns to engine analysis it's stayed ON when you are doing moves forward. Regarding the app stopping, we would appreciate it if you could provide us with details at support@chessify.me.
