I'm not going to write much as most the other reviews for older versions covered the details. The support for the 6+ is appreciated. Just wish it were easier to add the opening books.

Good app, great for beginners. A few UI issues that could be better but otherwise great and no real bugs on a 5s where I haven't upgraded to iOS 8 yet.

Hiarcs is very weak vs stockfish app, the opening book is terrible and the price (10$) is terrible. Maybe 5 years ago this was worth 10$ but now its just a scam.

This app provides an opportunity to sharpen your skills no matter what your level of play. This chess app is a "must have". Well worth the $. This app helps you to focus, understand the correct move(s) to make & why, & learn to think/anticipate a few moves ahead. This app is awesome!!!

I have been a long time chess player and also have been a Chess teacher. Recently I was evaluating iPhone chess apps for my six-year-old nephew. I concluded that Hiarcs is the best of the bunch. It plays very quickly, has excellent difficulty levels for beginners, and is generally well designed.

I use the Hiarcs desktop program and now I use the Hiarcs iPhone application too. This app allows the use of enhanced opening books (note: these books are provided by the same Dev for a fee, but they are updated roughly twice each year and they are amazingly thorough). If I had one wish, it would be the ability to access online endgame tablebases but other than this, Hiarcs is a great tool for chess-on-the-go.

Fantastic opening repertoire. Modern lines and impressive depth to every move. Will definitely improve your game to master level understanding. t

While using hotspot , board/menu is not displayed properly and it is not playable. Many apps handle hotspot correctly. Been that way a while now. You would expect a better for a paid app. Chess Genius does it correctly
