What’s New
Version 4.3.13
Hi chess fans! Today's new version improves app quality, removing a couple of bugs that could cause the app to crash. We hope you enjoy it! Thank you.
Ratings and Reviews
Bugs after recent updates
I love chess and personally this is my favourite app but after the recent updates there are certain bugs which have led me to lose plenty of my rating. Once the opponent plays their move my timer will still keep going and I can’t make my move until the time runs out out and I lose the game either because of abandonment or time insufficiency. Please do something about it!!
Developer Response ,
Hello! Gaining hundreds of thousands of new players each week has posed some technical challenges for us during this chess boom, but we're on top of it! We have JUST released another update with major improvements to prevent freezing or issues on the clock. Please download it from the AppStore, and let us know in a updated review if you experience any further problems during games. We're here to help! :)
Amazing app, but there is 3 issues.
1. Lack of takeback requests:
You cannot request a takeback to your opponent. This is extremely annoying whenever you have an issue on the apps side or of your phone.
2. Lack of Classical and major time controls:
There is no Classical rating option. I suppose this is because it would be extremely slow to gain rating this way, so I feel that the points should be increased to at least 15 points for a win, and at some points for a draw, even if the players are equal rating. Often times when I need to prepare for a real-life tournament, I find myself going to other Chess website because of the time controls they offer. 45|45 is too less when I am trying to prepare for a 90|30 tournament.
3. Clunky UI:
The UI is not very sleek or intuitive. I feel like a simpler, darker UI should be added with the menu animations being different. We should have the option of using the old one as well if we want.
I hope you guys see this, I have been a paying player for a while, so It would be nice.
Developer Response ,
Hello, thank you for this detailed feedback! We will keep these points in mind as we make future updates. After all, members' feedback are what drive changes to the app!
Related to takeback requests, don't forget you can enable the option "Confirm each move" in Settings--Live Chess. That way you can make a move on the board and confirm it with a checkmark, or you can tap the X to take back the move.
Classical time formats are not very popular in online games, which is part of the reason there is not a preset time such as 90|30 on the app. However if more members request this, it may be added in the future!
If you have suggestions for us on how the interface could be more sleek and intuitive, please let us know! We're available by email at support@chess.com and would be glad to discuss further. :)
Rated puzzle problems
Whenever i play my rated puzzles sometimes when i get it correct it tells me my internet connection was lost, and if i exit and play it again its all right. It always does that whenever i get puzzle right not when i get it wrong. Sometimes when i do one wrong move my rating drops all the way down to zero even though my ratings 1430~. And then when i quit the app and come back its all right. Everything else is fine but i would like to play my puzzles.
Developer Response ,
Thank you for this feedback. We're working on a solution for this network display error in Puzzles, and it will be fixed as soon as possible! We appreciate your patience while we work on this, and please let us know at support@chess.com if you need help with anything in the meantime.
