Comments on Chess Combinations Vol. 1 for Android

★★★★★ Mário Paes de Almeida Júnior · Feb 15, 2021
The test settings are the best feature. You can filter by topics and difficulty. After tests, you can filter the ones you make mistakes and inaccuracies it's really great. My only serious suggestion is a future option for solving the puzzles from the weaker side. There are few apps that have this feature of solving puzzles from the weaker side and this would turn this app into a monster of chess training. I recommend the developers to give it a serious thought into this feature.
★★★★★ HIDEO MIT UNS · Dec 5, 2022
I have many tactical theory books and puzzle collections. This app is really a standout! The best way to learn combinations according to Seinfeld is to organize them in themes and work at them from simple to difficult. The organization is amazing. My play has increased significantly. After a good tactical primer like Giannatos' Everyone's Firsts Chess Workbook or Chess Tactics for students by Bain, this app is great to get repeated exposure to more multi move combinations. 6 stars. Irreplaceable
★☆☆☆☆ Steven Prince · Jan 30, 2021
Everything is closed till you pay for premium - what a useless app !!!
★☆☆☆☆ John Hazlett · Oct 30, 2025
It's OK. But if you have trouble with a combination, it doesn't have the capability to go over it very well.

The fundamental chess program for club players. This first part includes more than 1300 exercises (more than 200 examples to explore and 1100 to solve), classified in 40 tactical methods and motifs.

With the help of this course, you can improve your chess knowledge, learn new tactical tricks and combinations, and consolidate the acquired knowledge into practice.

The program acts as a coach who gives tasks to solve and helps to solve them if you get stuck. It will give you hints, explanations and show you even striking refutation of the mistakes you might make.

The program also contains a theoretical section, which explains the methods of the game in a certain stage of the game, based on actual examples.

♔ The application is adapted to the bigger screen of a tablet
♔ The application does not require an internet connection
