  • Great but a little buggy

    By OddLinks
    App is very simplistic which is great. I do notice iMessage crashing, lagging, or the chess board disappearing in chat sometimes but doesn’t effect the actually gameplay.

  • Impossible to uninstall

    No icon show on your home page so you cannot uninstall it.

  • Does not work!

    If two people start a game each as white, the whole things crashes and becomes unusable with no way to reset it. Just add a reset button and it would be fine. 1 star until it’s added/fixed.

  • Fantastic iMessage chess app

    This is a fantastic app. I appreciate the simplicity. Please add: - a way to resign a game - dashboard for managing multiple games at once - a score tracker with an opponent to show who has won more games. All in all it works and is so easy in iMessage. Appreciate you people who built it!

    There is a bug that will move your pawn 3 spaces for some reason, it’s happening often on opening moves. When this works it’s great, when it doesn’t you are playing against your opponent and the big, lol!

  • Where’s the iPad support?

    Great chess on iPhone, but doesn’t open on iPad.

  • Loved until

    I loved the app until suddenly while playing the app would start making moves for both sides without human interaction by me or my son. Apparent the App was hacked either by a person or autoplay computer app and would continue to make moves and remove pieces on its own. I uninstalled and reinstalled with the same result. We would make a few initial moves, then the app would start making it’s own moves. We checked both phones with security software and could find no breaches. The only recourse was to remove the app permanently rather than allow 3rd party control. Too bad, it was a good way to interact with my son from a distance. I can only conclude a malicious actor exploited some feature that allowed access.

  • Queen switched to rook no reason

    By Michael Clarys
    So far it was good but we had one time where the queen actually switched to a rook for no apparent reason. Queen was sitting in the top right corner. I was trying to get ahold of developer but can’t find their contact info. Please help

  • No confirm move

    To me, a confirm move feature is essential when your customers are using touchscreens.
