Chessimo - Improve Your Chess

I can't synchronize purchases from web with this app. And when I touch button "restore purchase" in app , app is closed and exit!!! WTF!!

Рекомендую использовать предыдущий Chessimo 1.0. Он работает стабильно. Эта версия 2.0 неудобная, дизайн убогий, эргономика тоже. Выпущена исключительно чтобы заработать денег. Вместо того, чтобы исправить ошибки старой версии. Передача статуса тренировки из старой версии фактически не работает. Разработчики запросы игнорируют.

The app game database doesn't work! Engine has a big problem! You don't answer emails!

I have been a fan of this puzzle set since it was called Personal Chess Trainer 2007. The puzzle set is amazing and the speed at which you can practice a large set of tactics is unmatched. It’s too bad the app is a bit buggy. Chessimo v1 was really good, but didn’t look as sharp as this version. V1 also does not work well in iOS 16 and thus I was forced to upgrade. I had to pay $15 again to continue practicing the puzzle set on my new devices, which would be reasonable if the new app were less buggy. This new version looks a lot better and has a cleaner interface, however the scrolling on the iPad, the inability to reset the puzzle set, and the lack of ability to synchronize with an account despite a login (that also doesn’t work) make it a touch frustrating at times. If these bugs would be worked out, this app would be the absolute best tactics app on the App Store. I still believe in Chessimo despite the issues and hope the app will continue to be supported into the future.

This app is ridden with bugs and less features compared to the original version. improve that one instead of revamping everything. In the training for openings you use to be able to play both sides … this version doesn’t allow this. Also, the openings are written in subtitles. For example, Slav defense, you give variants of the Slav defense. Please fix this in your new version.

Like others mentioned, the board scrolls vertically on iPad when trying to make a move. I tried contacting them via email, but my email bounces back. Dead app, should be removed.

Is Ok but won’t let games go longer than 5 minutes . Chessimo 1 would let you continue games which is much more entertaining and educational . Have 1 on an old IPad but put this version on my phone to play on down time but don’t like rushing a 5 minute deadline .Not happy .

I used Chessimo for years now and the app is real good if not buggy sometimes. I just went back to iPhone and the “new” update of Chessimo 2.0 will not let me restore my purchases. I have tried to contact Chessimo and the links to their support do not work. So now I am out my previously purchased content.

The content is great, but I got a new iPad and when I try to move a piece the whole board scrolls with it, I’ve searched everywhere trying to find out how to fix the board in place. At this point, it’s pretty much unusable as moving pieces on a moving board is frustrating.

GET THIS APP. Its spaced repetition for tactics is AMAZING and justifies the app ENTIRELY. You start off with pretty basic mate-in-fews, making sure they’re hella drilled in (automatic recognition is the goal), and then builds upon itself with more complicated tactics, allowing you to automate those as well by using the easier (already-automated) tactics as building blocks. There is the same spaced repetition idea for strategic positions as well (which I’ve also found extremely useful!) It even has this for endgames!! I’m convinced this app ALONE is the fastest way to get to 1800 I’ve ever seen. Dev, thank you so much — it would be nice however if you could fix these bugs: (1) I can’t click on any games in the database, making it useless (2) the opening training has MANY lines where there is no end programmed in (many of these are in critical positions as well) resulting in the app freezing up, thereby prohibiting further study of that line (the bug persists, and I’m afraid to uninstall/re-install bc I don’t wanna have to start over with the spaced repetition)
