Graphical improvement is needed. Very bad quality. Opening lines are cut in the landscape mode, Chess pieces are not that 'HD' as it says. and when playing you can feel that the app is little buggy when moving a piece. More importantly, no updates to fix these problems. They just add support to the new iOS and wait for other buyers. I think developer is quite a bit lazy. Just consider buying other apps.
