Opening Training Built for Real Games

Lotus Chess analyzes up to 3000 of your online games, identifies your weaknesses, and creates a personalized, tailored course to make your openings bulletproof.

Instead of only studying theory, you get to play and convert winning positions to reinforce what you’ve learned.

Built by Chess Players

Lotus Chess was created by two brothers who started playing chess at age four.

After building a math learning app with over 6 million downloads, they set out to create the ultimate chess learning platform.

The result is Lotus Chess: a modern chess training system that combines opening preparation, endgame mastery, and personalized analysis — which is now being used by over 250.000 learners across the world.

as far as opening training goes this app is decent. it allows you to learn the lines based on the engine or based on what feels natural. it will also analyze your games and adjust the training accordingly. my favorite feature is mastering where you go back and play lines based on memory to really refine. the fact that it teaches up to 75 lines for openings with the main and sidelines before you have to pay is pretty great. certainly would recommend to beginner and intermediate players

I really want to like this app, but it just teaches you openings through memorization alone. I'll try to learn new openings and it tells me to play the move I just learned when I haven't been taught anything. There is zero explanation as to why certain moves are good for certain openings, so when you actually try and play openings exactly as you learn them, you are completely lost as to what to do next outside of opening preparation.

No way to review what is actually in the repertoire, for example, if you get some line in a game and want to review either where you went wrong or what is even in your training, that's impossible. If you change your mind about what moves you want to play in a line that keeps coming up in the flash cards good luck. The line has to come up either as part of learning a new line or as part of "increasing mastery". You need to have a very narrow repertoire. More missing features, but no room to

Thanks for the detailed feedback. You’re right — at the moment it’s not easy to review your full repertoire, revisit specific lines from games, or change chosen moves once they’re in training. We’re working on making repertoire management more flexible, including easier review, editing, and support for broader repertoires.
