Where’s the PGN

This is a nice app but the game analysis is basic and I can’t find a way to get a copy of the Pgn for my games. (Could be me) I could write the moves down I suppose. There’s also something going off with the ELO values that makes it different to other apps… I reckon the app could easily cope with strong players and I reckon it could handle a 2000 player or above without any issues. The flip side of that is it can also deal with beginners and help bring on a new / beginner player so they don’t feel overwhelmed. For a one off payment it’s good app. The coaching is ok (you get what you pay for) and if you play a lot and study a lot then you could see improvements in your skill. There’s just the 1 thing I’m missing… I would like more helpful analysis (Pgn file) of the games. Am I expecting too much? It could be me (more than likely). Deep analysis of games is how you improve. When all said and done… It’s a nice functional, stable Chess app that plays Chess well.
*** UPDATE ***
I found how to get access to Pgn!
I read through the help section and went through the options (again) and found out that on some of the games I could share the game via email.
I’m improving my knowledge of chess and this app.
The app gets 5 stars ⭐️

Ok

I wrote a review about this app some considerable time ago and praised it to high heaven. Now that I’ve had more experience with it I’m not quite as positive as I was, though I have to say I still like the appearance and user interface. Moreover, the engine is easily strong enough to beat me. However, when playing Black at my lowly level I would expect to face 1 e4 or 1 d4 most of the time, with the odd smattering of other openings thrown in. But the app is fixated by 1 c4, 1 Nf3 and particularly 1 f4, all of which you get far more often than either 1 e4 and 1 d4. And if you force it to play 1 e4 or 1 d4 it often forgets that it has an opening book and plays some very strange moves. On the iPad version I have found that after a while it reaches a point where it will ONLY open with 1 Nf3, and then not long afterwards the squares disappear and the board turns entirely black. You then have to delete the app and reinstall it. In the ‘Settings’ menu there is an item that allegedly allows you to report a problem. When I tried to use this a message came up saying my iPad isn’t configured to send e-mails, which it clearly is because I use it for that every day. So it would seem the app is far from bug-free. When it’s working properly the gameplay is good and I’m generally very happy with it, apart from now being well sick of the sight of 1 f4. But trying to get it to play the two most common opening moves with proper frequency proves very wearing after a while.

Daily fun

Really enjoying this app. Id like to think I'll be good one day. I play this most days on a low difficulty with some of its coaching features turned on. I usually play with the 'suggestions' feature turned off, because that makes it too easy. But it can be interesting to turn it on just before you make your move, to see if you're thinking right. Also; the notification that pops up when you're close to check-mate (either your King or opponents) is very helpful, because most of the time I don't even realise how that happened. This means I have much to learn about the game and slowly I will disable the features to make it harder for me.
