This app was perfect for those that couldn't watch online. I thoroughly enjoyed the after game commentary. The best part was being able to click in each side variation to see the commentators suggestions. Allowing the user to simply press "next" arrow to advance the moves was fantastic as it followed "next" the game move or the side note without having to switch back and forth.
