Comments on Play Magnus - Chess Academy for Android
★★★★★
I downloaded the Play Magnus Academy app and subscribed to the monthly plan. The payment was charged from my card, but the app is not premium — it hasn’t been activated.
★★★★★
Bought premium feature on monthly plan and transaction is made and amount deducted from my bank balance but still my access is blocked, and I am not able to use the features. Edit:They actually worked pretty fast on it after talking with them on email and resolved the issue
★★★★★
The game is awesome and perfect for the chess players. It next levels game OP.
★★★★★
Very interesting app with great content. However, navigating inside the app can be challenging and don't make sense. To start a lesson, you can choose how to start via a chat and answer suggestion doesn't change anything. Why a chat? There are quite a few bugs, when you finish a lesson, the list doesn't bring you to the next lesson, so you have to scroll up to find the next lesson. The app crashed randomly when playing matches. Overall great idea, but the app is not totally mature yet
★★☆☆☆
The game is good and can teach some children but in chess sprint level 7 or step 17 in the easy category the moving of the pieces are wrong when I moved beside the bishop and below the knight I suddenly got captured like a knight cannot move vertically and horizontally and when I tried to kill the knight the bishop got me even though the bishop was in the black square, and it suddenly captured me while I got the knight on the white square, that's an illegal move you have to fix this bug
★★☆☆☆
Please fix all the bugs in the game, whenever I try to take lessons, it always pops up and says that I am offline, even if I have a strong connection to the internet. Otherwise, the best app to master the game of chess
★★☆☆☆
I was enjoying it, but it seems the game has a memory leak, when I play 6 years old Magnus the game crashes and the system process crashes as well
