this was my favorite chess app to play with my friends using it almost daily but recently there’s been a bug in which i can’t start any matches or even play any that my friends send me so pretty much i can’t use this game anymore.

I like when apple came out with the new features were we could use stickers, and other cool stuff. But when I found out that we could play games, I was like “This is amazing!”. Now I can play with my family/friends where ever I go! (As long as I have my phone). It’s really easy to control, so it’s seams pretty easy. Love it!
Great App 1 major bug

This App has helped me stay in touch with family overseas and I like the very simple no frills design. However there is a bug or design omission. It does not let you choose which piece to upgrade to when a pawn reaches the 8th rank. It defaults to a queen which is not always appropriate. This caused me to lose a game today. Also following the recent update you no longer have the option to change your mind before hitting send. This was a previous useful option especially if your finger hit the wrong piece or square making a bad unintended move. Finally the upgrade also broke the enlarged version of the board you get when you first click on an opponent’s iMessage. It opens up a blank screen which you have to remove before selecting resume game to see their move. Please address these 3 issues especially the first. Otherwise good work! Roger B

This app showed up on my phone requesting an update. I never downloaded this app and I am unable to locate it. The app did an automatic update. Again, it is on my phone, I am unable to locate it. I want this app off of my phone.
Greet App... iPhone X tweaking needed.

My son and I have have been playing consistently for over a year. He is 21 and has long since left the nest. We don’t always have a lot to say but a move on the board has become our “yo, thinking of you”. It goes something like this... Dad: Your move. Son: Ok, can I borrow some money? Dad: Let me take your queen first :) Son: Funny Dad. Just like $20. Dad: No, really. It would be nice be nice to support iPhone X. The board doesn’t fit exactly right. It works but is a wee bit wonky. UPDATE: Thanks for the iPhone X support and I love seeing the last move in the conversation. 5th star.
Poor iPad support

This game could be a game changer! Unfortunately, it only works on an iPad if you hold it vertically and not in landscape mode. Still needs improvement. Not sure if it is worth a dollar.
At first great...

I initially downloaded this app and really enjoyed it. Very simple and easy to use, as well as having a wonderful looking interface.....but I recently updated the app and was very disappointed to see that I can no longer preview my move because it automatically sends it to my opponent.(it could just be me, but it seems as though it doesn’t run as smoothly with the new auto-send system) If the method of sending your move could go back to the way it previously was, I would say a perfect 5 stars again.
