Colors and board are frustrating on smaller screen
נְבוּכַדְנֶאצַּר
The colors in the app on iPhone 7 make my eyes cry with blood. Both the board and the black background make the app different from the other chess apps, but it is so much uncomfortable to play on this one. I hope it is a very new app and all might be fixed. Though maybe this should be played on larger screens.
