To the Partially Lazy Chess Reader. Dear Reader. Picture yourself lounging around the house; a few hours to spend with nothing to do. "Aha! A chess book!" you exclaim. "Perhaps a book on theory like 'The Lion', by Leo Janssen." You lie back, and open the book. "1.e2-e4 d7-d6 2.d2-d4 Ng8-f6 3. Nb1-c3 Nb8-d7..." and makes you go over the variations. Instead of lounging and reading a book you are now hunched over the chessboard doing work. This app lets you read in peace, with minimal effort from your subconscious and absolute zero distractions.

Great for following analysis This is the perfect replacement for the pocket chess set I used to use for following analysis in books. If you included a bookmark feature to provide a shortcut for returning to a particular position (rather than keep pressing Undo) that would be really useful. Thank you for a terrific, simple app!
★★☆☆☆
Terrible programming. Super buggy. Pieces appear and disappear randomly. Allowed my black king to castle king-side from b7.
★★☆☆☆
Scare ads and illegal castling We enjoyed this at first. The interface is intuitive and seems well-thought-out. The first sour note was the frequency of scare ads suggesting that my phone had a virus or was low on storage. More seriously, the game allowed Black to castle King-side after K had moved to Q position. The intuitive interface has a number of visual bugs that make moves irritating after a while. Nothing that couldn't be fixed, though, and I would give it another try.
