I liked chess, but did not play much. Now, with this app, I play all the time and against players all over the world. Fun
Wow!

I’m not the kind of person to write reviews on apps. But this- WOW! This app is great for beginners, to experts. Love how they give you advice. Much better than any other chess game. One thing they could improve is the hints. Sure, the give GOOD advice, but sometimes the advice that they give you is like, ‘Duh.’ Anyways great app, continue on with the great content! -3- ?

It’s quite discouraging to not even have a chance in the beginning. You want players to stay. No ones gonna stay after losing 3-4 times in a row or more. I’m aware I am not good n need to get better but this just made me wanna quit now. I have not found any videos that actually help me make an impact. The bots just say I’m wrong with moves but never explain why they’re bad. This is just your basic streamlined “teach you chess app”. Only good thing is actually free chess no ads. I rate it five because they won’t show this if I rate it 2 star which is my REAL rating. Don’t use this to learn only play after You learn from YouTube or something reliable.
Silly, frustrating puzzles detract from the experience

You’re better off trying to learn Chess in traditional ways than using this app. Specifically, Chess.com has no ability to judge the difficulty of their puzzles and the “ratings” associated with them are meaningless. My “rating” in puzzles far exceeds my actual playing ability because they’re just silly puzzles, many of which don’t teach any valuable lessons. The lessons themselves are mediocre at best, and there is a lot of content, but there are too many puzzles that are entirely too difficult for the rating they associate with them. It detracts from the experience. I’ve been a member for a while now but it just isn’t worth the frustration. Even under the “Learning” setting of puzzles (an odd title, since I thought the general point of puzzles was learning) they STILL evaluate you with a red X when you get something wrong, and if you try to just move on, they keep the red X at the top of your screen to remind you that you got something wrong this session. I don’t understand why they want to be that vindictive- it’s frustrating enough trying to learn. If they cared about what paying customers wanted, they’d change it. But, they don’t.

Wow! In summary I complained that the timers are still broken and people are cheating after 3 years. Had a response of generic BS. I then called them out on that and reminded people that they don’t care about cheating. Mysteriously my comment disappeared. Chess.com and their team are subpar. ?
Outstanding

Chess.com has developed a platform that elevates the game of chess. I watch live tournaments, watch GMs play blitz, learn from videos, solve puzzles and of course play games. It is a great community, a powerful teaching and learning tool, and an endless source of entertainment.

Chess.com is the ultimate paradise of chess, If you are a novice, Intermediate or Advance player your will have a lot of fun, learning, achievement of your own work and more over you realize that if your work hark, you can get a nice rating and win a lot of games. Nowadays people have come to realization that if you do not use your brain, this get atrophic and obsolete you could not be able to memorize simple or more complicated and logic tasks, Chess will definitely help you increase your common sense and logic capabilities of your mental processes, millions of strategic decisions are presented throughout your games and you are the one to solve and find the best move, kids are able to incorporate to the thinking process your chess moves, as a person develops , depending how you utilize your time, your brain will grow in many aspects, many scientists agree that human beings only use part of the brain cells and capabilities, the more time you invest in solving problems the more you realize of your improvements in your abilities to make even better decisions in your life. Kids could learn to distribute their time, make more rational decisions, planning yours everyday tasks and much more, Well I like so much chess that I think I could talk hours about it but DEFINITELY I DEEPLY RECOMMEND CHESS.COM. And let me make this very clear THIS NOT A PAID REVIEW AND I AM JUST A HAPPY USER. LHerrera. Computronpc.
