    I never felt the need to check any other app. It works great and I get to play with great players out there. It has challenges sometimes with connectivity to the server but only occasionally. I lost a few games even though I had moved and check-mated at the last second. The server didn't pick it up.

    Timing delay glitch. Pieces move in slow motion. Horrible effect, it's like the pieces are shaking.

  • Rudy Hardy

    Level development with the pieces all changed around in the fast game is interesting. I look forward to games with other players, and recommend this app to would-be players completely. There are computer diagnostics and plenty of parameters for turning on or off options, changing the similitude or sound of your move. You can change your profile picture and name up to once a month. You can refuse a game offered by a friend. If you want to play chess, this is the app for you.

    Lagging so much It's a disaster! Even 8gig ram not enough to play this game seems like playing now days game on VGA graphic card!!

    I've used different apps for chess but love this one the most. I like how you're able to rewind each move which is useful to me playing throughout the day. It's efficient, it has multitude of options in the settings, displays players stats, offers a separate chat, the layout of past and current games, no ads! I can't say enough about how much I enjoy this app. Bravo!

    Its a really good app , I haven't had any problems with it , always runs smooth . I like that you can have multiple games going . I like the game selection, also that you can watch others play their games live feed , & the random Opponent, which you can select from skill level or not . Im not sure what options you get when you actually pay for the app , I do know you get more then 5 games at a time

    The BEST Chess App I have ever played. The analyzing tools and the level of players really help my game. I would recommend this App to any level Chess player. If anyone says this isn't the best app, it's because they haven't figured out the settings and how to navigate the app. You can also BLOCK annoying or rude players and only chat with friends or respectful players you allow. (My favorite feature about this app) The worst part is that sometimes you lose connection during a game.

    The 11/8 update caused the app to open to a black screen, now I can't play anymore. :( I've uninstalled and reinstalled, restarted my phone, nothing is working. Any suggestions on how to get the game to work again?

    Generally a very good application. I'm using the free version but considering paying to go all in. My phone recently turned into a brick. I could not recover my account. Support was immediate and very effective. Turns out I had mistyped my email during the original registration. It took my being told to look hard at my email several times before I caught it. Clearly it was my problem. I was impressed with the support; very fast responses to email That's worth supporting the developer, imo.

    It's not Yahoo chess, but it was ok before the update. The strategic analysis of games that is available. I do wish it had the public game/chat rooms as well as the undo buttons available which made Yahoo chess so great. The current update has glitches with the sound of moves (sometimes it sounds, sometimes not) which makes blitzes and bullets extremely tricky because if u blink, u can miss a move. Also, previous chats are erased after a

    The Absolute BEST chess game you will ever download! Great for beginners and veterans of the game. The best part about the game is there are NO ADS!! You do not even need to purchase the premium upgrade as even the free version does not play one single ad! However if you do choose to purchase the premium version it will only cost you $9.99 A YEAR!!!
