About this app
Ever tried to annotate a live game in a notepad, only to find the PGN won't import into your favorite analysis app? Or had to hunt down a single, game-breaking typo, move by painful move?
That's why Chess - PGN Annotator was created: your perfect chessboard-side assistant.
Leave typos and distractions behind. For move entry, you have two powerful methods designed for every play style:
• Virtual Chessboard: For visual, error-free input. You can either drag the piece like on a real board, or tap the start and end squares for maximum speed and precision.
• Smart Keyboard: Ideal for those who love traditional notation or want to get comfortable with it. It only shows valid characters, guiding you move by move toward a perfect PGN.
Go beyond the moves and tell the story of the game. Add your critical comments to capture key moments, or use standard NAG symbols (like "!" or "??") to evaluate a move at a glance. Your thoughts and insights are now an integral part of the PGN, creating a rich, personal game record.
Unlike apps built for playing, there is no chess engine here. It's impossible to cheat or accidentally spoil a game. It's a pure tool, a sanctuary created just for annotation, ensuring the integrity of your study and your game.
Once your game is annotated, you are in full control. With a simple tap, you can:
• Copy the entire PGN to the clipboard, ready to be pasted anywhere.
• Export the game to a .pgn or .txt file for archiving.
• Share the notation with friends or coaches via your favorite apps.
Working on an existing game? The Import function offers maximum flexibility: load a game from a .pgn or .txt file, or simply paste the notation from the clipboard to start editing or continue annotating it right away.
Plus, the app is:
• Lightweight and fast.
• Free and without intrusive ads.
• Works 100% offline.
Stop fighting with your notepad. Focus on the game; let your new annotation app handle the rest.
