Great Interface!

Dtrasatti

Awesome interface. I realize it’s an ICC client, but is it possible to adapt to FICS? I’d love support for this since there is no reliable iOS app to speak of that will let you access this server.


Crap

Don't bother. Don't waste your time. It failed to connect to my icc account at all.


Great for Online Chess

DuckStorm

This is a advanced power-tool for accessing the paid subscription service of The Internet Chess Club. I like that the app offers both a nice graphical chess board and a powerful command-based console that exposes the full range of features available at the club without too many "frills". With that said, this app is for advanced users. People wanting a fancy graphical interface with menus, buttons, etc, should try "Chess at ICC" instead. This app is for people know already belong to the Internet Chess Club, know what they're doing, and want an interface similar to the club's advanced BlitzIn interface.


Crazyhouse via iPad on ICC

Worked as described.


Cannot get the pieces to move!

Valarts

I attempted to play the "Training Bot", And couldn't get the pieces to move, Trying both the drag method, and the touch piece, then touch destination square; Nothing! The touched piece would highlight with a red square around it, but wouldn't move... and I kept getting the message "illegal move". ... trying both colors! I didn't see any instructions how to move pieces/use this app in general... Consequently it's worthless@ useless!


Stable ICC Client

Simple and intuitive. Much more stable than ICC's provided client. Only complaint is it will disconnect you if you minimize the app which is unfortunate if you play in any pools. Needs premove support. I recommend the app.


Very well done

Excellent interface. Stable, but provides the nostalgic feel of the ICC computer app. You should consider a PayPal account for donations. Thank you!


A hidden gem!

It now has almost everything you’re looking for, including an engine and opening book. Very good interface for chatting and decent for playing too. I recommend adding timestamp and make it so you don’t disconnect from ICC when you close your phone.
