HTC Desire Z Awesome app, the only one of its kind on the market. Great for learning chess. More features would be great. Thank you developer!

Great small program Perfect to brush up on endings .say a pawn or two and a king against similar pieces. A good way to practice.

Great app Best app for learning openings and hugely useful and unique in that you can save your own variations. A bargain!

Excellent job This app is excellent .you have a nice opening foundation and as you look through lines .if you see you need to add to it .this app allows for it .as we know chess lines do change and this app allows for this and has the new moves you entered in.in a different color, so you know what ones you added as they build up over time.also there is a feature that opened up an app I have to analyze position so if you are tactic checking for some hole in your repertoire this feature is here.fantastic app

Useless app Lists very few moves. This app is a scam. I agree with the Tze-wei Lim about the limitations. Don't buy.

It's A POS!!!! Lots of openings but bad UI no, no analysis and no features. Don't pay for it.

Total Scam This is a total scam. Most of the variations last 4 moves long at the most. Some include 6–7 moves max. Any chess book for intermediate players will have more material than this. When I wrote to Martin Knudsen of Pondar, this is what he wrote back: "I don't care about your opinion. Stop wasting my time. I am blocking your emails now, so don't bother writing back." This app should be taken down as it is a total scam. Chess base has so much more useful material. This app is useless. For egs, Scandinavian - Kiel variation: 1.e4 d5, 2.exd5 Nf6, 3.d4 Nxd5, 4.c4 Nb4, and it ends there. Scandinavian - Icelandic Gambit: 1.e4 d5, 2.exd5 Nf6, 3.c4 e6, and it ends there. This variation is much longer than this. Scandinavian - Andersen counter-attack: 1.e4 d5, 2.exd5 Qxd5, 3. Nc3 Qa5, 4.d4 e5, 5.dxe5 Bb4, 6. Bd2 Nc6, 7. Nf3, and it ends there. Scandinavian - Marshall variation: 1.e4 d5 2.exd5 Qxd5, 3. Nc3 Qa5, 4.b4, and it's over. Alekhine's Defense - Brooklyn defense: 1.e4 Nf6, 2.e5 Ng8, and it's over. 2 move line. Alekhine's Defense - Koch variation: 1.e4 Nf6, 2.e5 Nd5, 3. Bc4 Nb6, 4. Bb3 c5, 5.d3, and that's it. - Spielmann variation: 1.e4 Nf6, 2. Nc3 d5, 3.e5 Nfd7, 4.e6..., end.
