ChessExplore Openings Trainer
Chess Opening Quiz & Reference
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Watch the moves. Name the opening. Master the game. Free with no ads, no tracking, and iCloud sync across iPhone, iPad, and Mac.
From earlier:
Watch the moves. Name the opening.
ChessExplore Openings Trainer teaches you to recognize chess openings the way they actually happen — move by move on a real board. Each round animates a classic opening, then challenges you to identify it from four choices. No memorizing notation. No flashcards. Just chess.
How it works
Each opening plays out on the board, move by move. Pick the correct name from four options. Build recognition through repetition — the way strong players actually learn.
