Adds status bar always on icon, emails, other notification, sure and play chess with your friends from time to time.

The app bugs out with pre set openings. I'm playing a theoretical tournament. The games never update past the opening phase.

N70%
by N####:

I love playing 5 min play live. But if i always lag and disconnected, how should it will be fun? Just make people angry.. fix please.. my internet connnection is good.. really

N70%
by N####:

I always loved the app because of how many people it had but there were lots of bugs. The latest version has fixed most if them and I can tell you're on the right track. there are still some bugs in the chess opening explorer. The move number is wrong and sometimes it shows moves that are invalid.

N70%
by N####:

The server aborts constantly. Time will run down and lose when unable to move. The program may be rigged for those who pay. I have fast connection and still lose time while opponent gets time added back and wins. Hard to play this way.

L70%
by L####:

App would be great to me if not for one major issue - it doesn't appear to have option to keep screen from sleeping. It also doesn't seem to save yourself through it. When playing vs computer if screen goes to sleep, when you bring it back - whole game resets.

N70%
by N####:

In general it could have been a good app. Many players, live, bullet and "by correspondence" modes, Ads are not greatly annoying. One terrible downside: if you lag or get disconnected you loose the game. The game lags even if all other insternet services keep working.I suggest some reasonable waiting time when the game freezes for both players thus giving the server a chance to re-establish the connection. Without significant improvements on this issue it is impossible to play live games on the go.

User interface, analysis is nice....but frequent 'reconnecting problem' spoils the whole game....it drastically reduces ur time ..without any of ur fault...sometimes it aborts the game when there is a serious battle goes on...puts u in a very disappointing situation.....please address to this problem....

N70%
by N####:

Pathetic App. I have a very good connection but I get disconnected 20 times in a 10 min. What's the point in having a good User interface if I can't play a game properly?

I70%
by I####:

I've absolutely love the site.. but this app have a lot to improve... disconnecting in the middle of the game (with no obvious reason) and on option to reconnect even if i have strong internet connection.... i have lost far too many games that way, games that I would almost surely win.... can't expect a lot from the free stuff i guess...

N70%
by N####:

First of all neither my husband nor I can connect to each other. We've sent several requests and one of us always shows "on vacation" even when we're both logged in. Secondly, the app on my husband's windows phone is an actual app. But on my android it connects to the website for everything except when i play live. Why? Then there's the matter of emailing the creators a while back and never getting a response. Both my husband and I are tired of trying to use this to play chess together.

2016 March 15 - 4 games reset. Very stupid

Use to work well, but since installed on Galaxy S 7 Edge there is no sound!!! Please fix :(((

Game play ruined by players cheating time and adding to their clocks.

Fantastic all round. Customer service respectful, friendly and very helpful.

N70%

Playing on a samsung galaxy s7 and this app flickers on and off, very annoying. I play 1 min bullet all the time and i have fast internet at home but this app slows my move every single time. Very stupid!

N70%
by N####:

Does not allow castling after King has been checked, even though the King is no longer in check (and all other prerequisites to allow castling are met). Somewhat confusing interface. Otherwise, great app!

Two out of three games i played resulted in autoresign because i lost connection. Uninstalled and looking for other chess app

i love to play here but many times the game just hangs and i lose because of you guys.!!!! it happens many times

S70%
by S####:

Opponents just get extra time out of nowhere. Really messes up the momentum of the game. Flip

N70%
by N####:

I would give it 5 star but it hangs out network and our time wasted by this fault plz fux this for 5 stars

W70%
by W####:

Please fix the analysis mode. Its not WORKING.

N70%
by N####:

After a game, the app goes into "analysis mode" to review the game, which would be extremely helpful if it worked. The back and forward arrows that are supposed to step thru the game don't do anything. They work in the tactics trainer, but not after a game.

J70%
by J####:

It is a great app. But it was annoying when opponent's time kept increasing and mine was decreasing -- even when it wasn't my turn! I also observed 10-20 second jumps!

N70%
by N####:

Takes 30 sec off the clock for each second played. ....impossible to play a game and not lose on time

N70%
by N####:

Don't play live on a mobile device. Unstable and some time seconds are stolen from you & added to your opponent mysteriouly. Game may end sooner. A real mess even with good connection.

N70%
by N####:

This is good site u can play with any one with free of cost, see the better result here. You can't find another like.

Simple n great app to play.

H70%
by H####:

But if an 'Everyplay' video recording integration or any other recording feature so we could share the games, could be added especially for the online games it'd be great

It the best and most realistic

Lame. Said email was already taken, so figured I had already made an account...but can't figure out how retrieve password or if that's even an option. I'm not going use face book to log in. I'd use Twitter tho but it's not an option.

by N####:

Clock moving but it's not my move

Q70%
by Q####:

Game is fun but I had to go online and login to add any friends. It seems like it is a mix between an app and going online to get what you want. Also the last few days playing live isn't working. Whether on wifi or verizon. Thought maybe was my phone but restarting did nothing.
