Analyze chess games

Free · Designed for iPad

See a position you want to analyze? Just take a photo. ChessView now scans chess boards from screenshots, books, and other screens. ChessView - Chess Game Analyzer "Every chess player knows this frustration: You've just finished a game, and you know something important happened, but you can't quite grasp what. I'd copy games to ChatGPT, hoping for insights, but got generic responses - no board, no context, no real understanding. I'd see a fascinating position on another screen or in a chess book and wish I could just snap a photo and instantly have it on my board for analysis. That's when I realized I needed to build the tool I wished existed - one that would show me the actual position while providing meaningful analysis. That's why I created ChessView." Your complete chess companion for game analysis, study, and improvement - no ads, no tracking. SCAN POSITIONS FROM PHOTOS See an interesting position on another screen or in a chess book?
