Aimchess - Learn Chess Online

Probably the best chess training app ever!

If you don’t know chess at all that is <500 rated in chess.com then it may be useful. If you cross the 1200 you may find some tips. If you are 1500+ it is absolutely useless. I’m 1700 and wasted my dollars for a yearly subscription. I won’t renew once it expires.

The free version isn’t very good for intense studying at the 2000+ level, but it works at the 1500 level just fine. It does in fact use your games to help you improve, and the reports are incredibly useful: the main reason I want the paid version. I recommend the Explore section: the lessons there are good enough to rival those on chess.com. The Playground is nice, but they’re better for wonky middle game study: those bots play the craziest openings I’ve ever seen. The one rated ‘Master’ played 1. h4 against me. He still won, of course

Do Not Get This App!!!! I have had aimchess for 5 months. I fell for their sales pitch and bought the year subscription. I have had to contact support 4 times in those 5 months and their lack of response and effort tells me they have absolutely no interest in providing the app they promised. I have been unable to log into the app for the last month. Other than the money they have swindled from me, My subscription clearly means nothing to them. Trying to move the pieces is a nightmare because they freeze. And will only move to the incorrect solution square. For an app that claims to evaluate you on your performance so it can customize your training. I’m struggling to see haw they get an accurate reading on your weaknesses when their puzzles force you to make mistakes. The overall layout and appearance is lacklustre and the lessons/exercises leave you underwhelmed There are a lot of chess resources in the App Store and internet. There is absolutely nothing about this apps approach that makes it worth your time. Keep scrolling!!! To the aimchess team. You are a bunch of scammers. Trusting you is without a doubt my biggest regret in my chess journey! Thank you for teaching to look deeper before I buy.

Try it out

This start of December, I downloaded Aimchess. As I heard it could help out a ton. And those people were right. Great membership deal Personalized training Game reviews and analysis It is helpful that I went from being stuck at 1700, all the way to about 1900 OTB. As I’m writing this right now, I currently have 10 win streak on chess.com!(December 19, 2024) Thank you so much Aimchess for helping me explore my opportunities for chess. -Teacher of a intermediate chess class

This app will make you better at chess! I’m definitely seeing the board better. Updated to 5 stars! Sensei is pretty cool. Daily plan I wish there was a countdown or list of exercises with progress bar. As a newb failing the same two exercises and not knowing where I’m at in the list of exercises is frustrating . This is minor thing. Daily challenges. Wish there were more daily challenges. Playground wish there was a hint limiter. Like I only want x number of hints.

When you choose the right answer, it marks it wrong. It wouldn’t be so bad if the app at least gave an explanation saying WHY it thinks it’s wrong but it doesn’t do that. It just says you’re wrong. I wouldn’t rely on this app to learn chess, it’s too easy to develop a misunderstanding of the game this way
