Very Good One of the best apps for online play. Why no option to save my finished games to pgn or at least a share option to other chess apps that have option to save pgn?

Nice It connects to FICS which guarantees finding rivals any times. Intuitive and friendly user interface. Nice problems and analysis mode. Chatting could be better.
★★★★★J. M.· Feb 1, 2023
A chess game that allows you to carry out all the important functions of paying chess: analyzing, learning, online playing, etc., without letting its usable interface get in your way. It can connect to millions of database games, it can do some analysis, it has a manageable strength engine, it has an easy to use 3D interface without prompts and dialogue boxes to get in yor way. I had it installed with other chess apps for a long time, and it turns out to be the most stable of such apps.

Once really annoying flaw Can we please not have the player names in the upper left and lower left corner of the board be clickable? It's a little annoying when I'm trying to move my rook with 9 seconds left in a Blitz game, and instead I get a modal dialog box telling me what my rating is, which frankly I don't care about since I'm playing as a guest anyway. I don't think this "feature" was always there, and I'm pretty sure the game was better off without it.

Ugh This app would get five stars easily if it wouldn't CRASH EVERY TIME ME OR MY OPPONENT PROMOTED A PAWN!!!!!!! (suicide variant)

Games won't save to my phone at all, no matter what I do. I emailed Mobialia and haven't heard anything back.

Needs improvement There are plenty of people to play against if it's an unrated game but if it's a rated game you get a blank screen like WTF.? It's o.k I guess but for a paid app it needs massive work.
