Reviews

App crashed and doesn't restart.
Rouslan86

Ive been using smallchess pro for some days now... but today I was changing the settings of trainer in the app but the app closed unexpectedly and wont turn on again. I have to completely uninstall and loose all my data to see if it will work again.


iOS 7??
PeterGrannt1234

My only complain was the app has not been updated to iOS 7, but that's not an issue. Pretty sure they will upgrade sooner or later. I love the trainings, it's really awesome. Multi-pv is also amazing.


Stable
Kendren Forden

I don't see any crash or instability. It never lost a connection in my FICS game.


Stockfish Needed
iOS User 1234

Can you add Stockfish to it? Otherwise, it's all good.


Greater if we can connect a remote engine
Albert Liang 1234

Recommend to purchase this app. One thing it's missing is the ability to host a remote engine. Stockfish has it. Can you do it?


iPad?

The design of the new app is a million times better in my opinion than say "Master Chess", and it’s great that they really paid attention to making interactivity a priority when designing it.


Crashes repeatedly when you load a game...

...then play through different scenarios. As of Nov 2013, dev hasn't updated in months. After several tries, I finally got it to load a saved pgn file and play through. Too much effort, though, for something that should have worked the first time.


Great app!

I have really enjoyed this! Works perfectly is smart and smooth. Great for improving your game esp., if you are a casual player but aspire to be rated one day.


Great game!

Easy to use and great practice tool.
