The first chess engine I have played with when I'm still a teen (online) and Shredder helped me improve my play by practicing with it every day. And now it's in Android, and I'm glad I purchased it. High quality engine from Deutschland!

Excellent game with smooth customizable interface and very strong opponent. No frills, just the game with useful hints, elo rating, and no in-app purchases. I particularly love the well-designed, clean chess board and pieces. Still one of the very best Android chess apps after all these years.
★★★★★Joe Brooks· May 28, 2025
Good, strong chess program with all the essential features. The feature that lets it adjust its playing strength to your level is very handy, and it gives what I think is a pretty fair estimate of your rating based on your performance.

Something changed in the interface, and not in a good way. There was a rectangle that you could press to make Shredder take the next move. Why would you remove that?

I have been an enthusiastic user of both Shredder and Hi arcs for many years - they both rate my Elo around 1800??? And had anticipated giving a five-star rating but this version only works offline for a short period of time. If this is a problem for you, I have found Chess Pro and Lichens to be better options.

There is an unexpected problem that I am facing When I open app and want to play it always goes blindfold mode (invisible) No chess pieces show on board. Plz resolve the issue
