Great app for learning chess. Has high quality lessons. My only complaint is that it is buggy. Some puzzles have more than one solution but if you play the move not programmed into the solution it is marked as failed. This also happens in mate in 1 puzzles. Because of this you will not always score three stars. Sometimes the entire board gets randomly filled with pieces if you accidentally try to make a move without first identifying the motif first.

The app is great. The exercises, explanations are top notch. Buuuuut in the end, the token system is very aggressive and the app's full price is extremely high. The greed needs to be tuned down a bit. Reduce the grind, be more generous with unlocks, make more things free, improve packs and we'll feel we're not overpaying.

Having a great experience but the magnus bot is not working.. I was learning chess then magnus bot (5year) having bug ang issue, this makes me frustrated, so I can't continue my learning.. Please fix it!! So I can again continue my journey!!

Capturing a defender-overloading lesson, interference, pinning, forking, double check. These are all valuable lessons that get you to think about how the game works in the long term, very good. But getting coins for them is very hard to do. What is missing : capture sequences (chains)

The app is good with interface and explanation of the game, but the only problem I faced was when I tried to play the stage where you have Carlsen as an opponent, the chess board doesn't even appear maybe the resources couldn't load or something but it was really problematic, please solve this issue.

Despite its recent release, this chess application is undeniably one of the most overlooked and undervalued in its class. The instructional content is engaging and the practice exercises are both useful and beneficial. The app offers a variety of categorization options that allow users to identify and address specific areas for improvement with ease. Additionally, the app is gratuitous and provides access to all features without any intrusive advertisements. I highly recommend for any learner.

I have reached level 3(ace in the sleeve) and the chess board won't appear at all. Only the cards are visible and the screen is just black. It's unfortunate I can't proceed because of this

About 3 months ago I started a monthly subscription, and two months later I moved to a yearly subscribtion. But two days ago I noticed that the app didn't cancel my previous subscription an the I was paying both the monthly and the yearly, then I stopped both of them because I didn't want to pay for untrusted app. The yearly subscription was supposed to end in February 2024 but now the app doesn't give me access to the premium content that I've paid for 😕 👎👎👎

Very nice app but it crashes frequently and you have to restart again all the exercice ...

The game just freezes or crushes after some time. Tested on multiple devices

I'm stuck on the loading screen. Trying to sign up for the app, and I'm not getting any feedback when I tap the sign up button after giving my sign up details. Edit: Been able to log in using my old details, though the sign up issue still remains. Now, the new issue is with subscription. I subbed to a monthly plan, but for some reason, it hasn't reflected in the app yet. It still thinks I haven't, and as such, the premium lessons are still locked for me
