King's Cross Schacheröffnungen

I love the app I just wish it had sound.

Easy to forget how good this app is. They recently dropped the ridiculous price and out a reasonable annual fee. Want a good 5 star opening app. Its right here.

I paid for an annual subscription ($13, I think) and I use this app every day. It’s the best I’ve found for drilling opening lines. I’m better booked up than my opponents who use Chessable. I maintain my openings in a Lichess study and import the PGN to the app, but you don’t have to do that, you can just select lines in the app.

. . . if it were not so enormously overpriced. At $10 or even $15 I would purchase in a heartbeat, but no way would I pay the current subscription price.

I’ve been impressed with the quality of this app. It is helping me tremendously with memorizing openings.

This app is great and would get 5 stars if it didn’t have a subscription. $40 dollar a year is an outrageous price for an app that only serves a purpose once in a while. If I build my repertoire on this app, I have to keep up my subscription. I’ll stick with ChessTrainer, one time fee. Consider making it a one time fee and I will buy plus give it 5 stars.

An annual subscription is $40! If you expect to still be playing Chess in a decade, and you think that you will still be using this app, that’s $400! Without the subscription you are limited to 3 files. You could do your White rep, your Black rep and 1 new line that you are experimenting with. This might work well for many people. What I want is a file for the Sicilian, a separate file for the French and so on. (Full Disclosures: I really dislike subscription software!) If not for the limitation and the cost of the subscription, the program would get 5 stars. If I could buy it for $20 or $30, I would buy it and give it 5 stars. With the price of the subscription, and the limits on the program without buying a subscription, I will keep using Splashtop and a windows based program that I have been using for years.

This app is a must have for all serious chess players. I have it on my iPad and my iPhone and I'm using it daily:)

King's Cross is exactly what I was looking for. For a long time I have used Chess Position Trainer on my Windows laptop, but I wanted something on my phone and iPad that I could train with in idle moments. This app is perfect, just what I had hoped for. So far I have loaded only one opening from my repertoire (several variations; 200+ moves), and I have trained on the app for only a couple of weeks. Beautiful. I am looking forward to giving it a whirl soon with some of the more complex openings in my repertoire.
