Wonderful done! Makes Go accessible even for beginners – SmartGo Player Review

If you are looking for an aide to learn Go, or an intelligent Go game board look no further. SmartGo is an extremely high quality application both in terms of how it is written (polished and intuitive) and the features it provides (great tutorial, helpful features). It is easy to use and helpful for either human vs. human play or computer vs. human play. After a many year hiatus it has helped me get back into the game. The tutorial is particularly helpful if you are just starting out or need a refresher. My 13 year old did it and learned the game well enough with it to play other beginners. The scoring and play analysis features are also really helpful. I also exchanged emails with the author (who replied almost immediately on a Sunday night) and he offered me some great advice on how to get better even steering me away from the more expensive kifu version until I got better. (Checkout the Go Book app). Suffice to say, you can’t go wrong with this app if you are interested in playing Go on either an iPhone or IPad (I’ve used the app in both and it works great on either).
