This website is fantastic. If an update is coming up, put a daily tournament that subscribers can make daily.

Free works good. Why is it so hard to purchase the non blocked version?

You can play timed fast games or slow games. Has a large base of players of all skill sets. You can do this without having to pay. You can also chat with opponent or you can mute chat if you want a simple playing experience.

Excellent ! ! !

I don’t think that the person who created this app tests anything or uses the app himself . 1 min games are one sided and what ever he is uses to detect move collision or locking issues is a hack at best. - broken menus system. Can’t get back to games quickly I you accidentally move away from board - menus and screen transitions are horrendously slow - move reanimation of a move on a fat finger or invalid move takes too long - precondition moves don’t always take, even if they are valid - sometimes moves are delayed, so you are moving a piece behind - precondition moves not sticking and cost time though your opponent is not affected and they don't lose time - pieces are reset during a move collision, if if it’s valid I still want the piece to commit. Otherwise time is lost - I sometimes have to click a piece more then once to be able to move. This also happens when I try to place a piece somewhere - app seems sluggish after several games. Have to force quit and restart. -Have had to reinstall app several times - black screen of death occurs often - placement of profile image and new game is too close often leading to a fat finger press of the profile - during the last 15-20 seconds of a bullet game, opponent time barely moves yet I loose 1-2 seconds, or more, per move. This is even with pre moves

The new changes have made the app worse.

Latest update has ruined this app! Pieces move at a weird speed and the graphics are too crisp. Plus, the list of games doesn’t fit the screen and you can’t delete games already played. Please go back to the previous version! There was nothing wrong with it!

Loved this app, it was great before August 2019 update, now the design is weird and doesn’t make a lot of sense.

Best chess game ever

Do not pay for this piece of junk!! This app used to be fun, but is now plagued with the following issues: - GUI is too small and as a result I have to tap as many as 4 times on a piece to see a response. - response is EXTREMELY sluggish: almost a second after a move has been completed! - to make matters worse lag is now hidden: time jumps from minutes to seconds, after waiting the same amount of time for the opponent's move! On a small device like mine and when playing fast time controls, this version is useless and I will be looking for alternatives.
