A best app for viewing kifu
philofellow

I have both smartgo kifu and easy go. I would say if you only concerns viewing kifu, then easygo is sufficient. It is better in organizing kifu with folders, and it has a full screen mode. Both are very handy. The author of the app is very responsive to inquiries too.


Beginner Friendly!
Strawcardinal

All the practice problems work and give someone who has never played before (like me) a good intuitive understanding of the moves and rules through practice. It's no frills but also not annoyingly full of ads which I will take any day. I recommend it!
