Comments on ChessUp for Android

★★★★★ Typical TOM · Aug 11, 2024

Love my chess up board worth every penny definitely a good purchase for all levels of chess players

★★★★★ Michael Bartosh · Jul 16, 2026

This is a great board to help you learn how to play. The fact that it is the lowest cost board with full piece recognition makes it even that much better! I am really enjoying my choice in going with Chess Up 2. Besides that, their support staff was very helpful in pointing me to the right learning track to get better at playing.

★★★★★ sindhu vasu · Nov 5, 2025

Best with the board, but we need access to live tournament and an option for it

★★★★★ Sojourner Truth · Jan 6, 2025

I am a beginner and chess up is a fun way to get those skills needed to play with an understanding of the best moves to make.

★★☆☆☆ Shane's Games · Dec 23, 2024

Love the board, but app connectivity with it seems terrible. Anytime I select an AI opponent with me as black, white just won't move. I can get it to work if I select an opening and make white's move for it, but even then I have to back out and then resume the match for it to actually play. Also, kind of annoying that the AI doesn't seem to try to play any real openings. Or when I choose to follow an opening it just does one move and then does nonsense. Works good online.

★★☆☆☆ ShrmnX · Aug 22, 2023

There's a bug! You can move any pieces in the wrong spot(e.g. Horse can be moved in the ascending spot not in L pattern)

★☆☆☆☆ Jarod Peters · Dec 11, 2024

Bluetooth's connection fails make it unrealistic to expect to play a full-game, even if it's against the offline AI. I've had this problem on and off for months, and every time support "fixes it", it pops up again a month later. Don't buy the product unless you're fine using it as a decoration

★☆☆☆☆ O · Jan 26, 2025

Interesting tech....frequently get booted from a match on chess. Con on chess up....very frustrating.I have 6g Wi-Fi which is not interrupted and 5g on my phone with 5 bars....they need to work out these issues. I do not like getting booted and my score drops. Also the game should be smart enough to immediately reconnect if cycled and match where pieces are on the board.
