Description by STUDIO MARABEL LLC Written by the developer, not by AppBrain. Click to read.
VocalChess is built for players who want to play hands-free and train blindfold: holding the position in your head.
Say it the way you think it • Pieces: "knight f3", "bishop takes e5", "knight b takes d2". • Pawns: "e4", "e takes d5". When only one move can capture on a square, "takes d5" is enough. • Castling: "castle kingside", "castle queenside". Promotion: "e8 promotes to queen". • Your words appear on screen as you speak, and the app waits while you pause mid-move. • Say "undo" or "take back" to take a move back, or "resign" to end the game. You can also tap the board.
It asks before it guesses • When the app is sure, the move plays at once. • When it isn't, it asks "Did you say …?" and you answer yes or no, by voice or by tap. • When nothing legal matches what it heard, it shows "Say again". It never plays a move you did not say.
Choose your game • Tap the play button for a new game: pick one of six levels, from Novice to Master, and play as White, Black or Random. • Step back through the game with the move buttons, or say "back", "forward", "start" or "latest". Looking back never changes the game. • Close the app mid-game and pick up where you left off.
Hear the game • The engine's reply is read aloud in a natural voice that runs on your iPhone: "Black, knight f6". Check and the result of the game are read too. • Turn on "Speak my moves" to hear your own moves read back as well. • You can talk over the app while it speaks.
Blindfold • Tap the eye to hide the pieces. The squares and coordinates stay; the position lives in your head. • With the board hidden, every move is read aloud, yours included.
Private and offline • Speech recognition, the voice and the chess engine run on your iPhone. After iOS downloads its English speech model once, you can play with no connection. • No account, no ads, no tracking, no in-app purchases. The app collects no data. • It asks for one permission: the microphone.
VocalChess runs on iPhone with iOS 26.5 or later, and hears and speaks moves in English.
