Comments on New In Chess for Android

★★★★★ Great App - but prefered size of playback screen before last update Now the width is a little too wide for my tablet.... If the complete H column on the right shows, the first letter of the comments are missing on the left... Not sure if others are experiencing this... but I hope a future update allow for more adjustment of the size...
★★★★★ Lacks, needs free sample. Advert said free sample if I install the app. Then I installed the app, but found no free sample. The app wanted me to "sign up" and give NIC my email address. Maybe that would resulted in a free sample, but nothing said so up front. So I uninstalled app. BUT the NIC format looks fantastic, better than other ebook formats that cannot do columns or tables. ChessBase is what some ebooks use as authoring tool, which is powerful but also limiting.
★★★★★ I really like the magazine and app you can minimize the screen and then you will get the game viewer board in full ,my question is, can you make an update where you can flip the board that would make the app most complete and useful as I like to have the black pieces on the bottom please do it but I also purchased a subscription because I really like the magazine,thank you if you can do this , Richard Barski
★★★★★ Love it! Great way to read an excellent magazine. I'm having the same issue with the game playback window being a little too wide, but I'm still giving 5 stars, trusting it will be fixed shortly.
★★☆☆☆ Premature Imo new in chess is the best chess magazine in the world so I was very excited to learn I can read it on my android device. Sadly I had to discover it is full of annoying issues that are unacceptable in a product you charge money for. 1. Scrolling is extremely slow in the text of the analysis 2. On multiple lines you can't select which one to play on the board (unless you tap on it in the text, which is very tedious) 3. Rigid screen, no way to resize or customise game viewer. 4. It occasionally crashes
★★☆☆☆ Poor execution I had seen the iPad version and was expecting a similar experience, but this is just poor. Download and Install takes ages, even on my fast WiFi. UI is clumsy and does not feel native. Buttons take some effort and at times do not respond. Turning the page feels as if the page is being downloaded again from the internet and is slow/blurry at first (then what was the 100mb download in the first place?) And the app/service keeps running in the background even after exiting. Pls take Android seriously.
★★☆☆☆ seriously, not even a free teaser glimpse? latest magazines show up as unavailable for purchase. not even a free glimpse into the magazines, as a teaser/ trial/ demo.
