Disappointed

Tried to log on to freechess.org server and the app says “I don’t have enough credit”. Very primitive app.
Totally Amazing

I've brought the full version of this amazing app. The engine is strong and there're tons of training exercises. I enjoy the new chess experience it brings. Thanks!!
Promising app

There are way too many features available. I couldn't find any other app doing the same. However on my iPhone 4 it's quite slow and GUI seems to stagger while the menus load. Definitely worth buying the pro version once the updates start improving the laggy nature of UI.
Suggestions for SmallChess

After looking at the app, it appears to be better than Stockfish and any other chess apps I've found in most ways. It has the largest amount of options, which I love, and it has a great looking and customizable GUI (something I rarely see). However, there are some suggestions that I think would make the app better than Stockfish in EVERY way. A more flexible board should be implemented, where you wouldn't be limited to playing just one side or both sides, in Stockfish it is easy to switch between sides with ease, having the engine play as white, then black, etc. Also, I believe another playing style after "aggressive" should be implemented, one even far more aggressive like "suicidal". If possible, it would be great if it truly played speculative sacrifices and crazy, almost unplayable gambits like any suicidal modes should, but don't. If these were to be implemented, I would definitely buy the full version! Thank you. From; Alex
Amazing

Strong and fast. Paired it against Hiarcs in a 4 game match and SmallChess won by 2.5 to 1.5. Totally amazing. Loaded of features and a modern look. Highly recommended. The best app.
