Ratings and Reviews
Best Opening Trainer Out
I can't remember the last time I wrote an App Store review. But I have to for this app. Built in engine, % seen in GM games, names for variations 7+ moves in.
The free options are fantastic, and i went to pro strictly to support the devs as I have my entire (limited) repertoire in and only use 50%.
If you have any experience with file management, then the structures of how to arrange your openings help determine the built in spaced repetition. If you have one major line you wanna flush out with several variations, add that and practice. If you have several 5-7 move deep shorter openings (common for low elo like myself) it's easy to set those up and get more familiar with all of them after two weeks and not even realize it.
The only "effort," I put in was tapping through the suggested responses with what I see in my games. Now the platform offers me spaced learning, games with similar tactics, and common variations to continue a line once I'm familiar.
AND THEY HAVE A WEB PLATFORM FOR FREE!
An amazing app that's already improved my openings greatly with the least amount of work put into having it be useful. 6/5 new standard
Great! Have a suggestion
Both the theory of this app and execution are stellar! One thing I would change is the notifications. If you could make the notifications customizable, like change the amount of moves per day. I would find it easier to open up the app and start practicing if the little red notification said “10”, compared to “78”. Of course, once you get going you might do all 78! but it’s just easier to approach with a lower count
Chessable is better
I came in thinking this was an app that trained you and provided lessons, like chessable.
Instead this app has you perform your opening move, then it memorizes your move, then you choose which of the following moves, the Ai should follow up with.. and so forth.
this is the core of this app. It then saves these moves, and you repeat them over & over. I don’t get it? I’m here to learn from the masters see their courses. I have no idea about openings yet.
Chessable offers exactly what this app offers and much more. Full repertoires courses with video and puts you in different situations you need to overcome.
What chessable lacks is a constant repeat of the same move over and over, so we can memorize the tactic. Instead you’ll have to redo the course, just to redo that part tactic you’d like to memorize.
I thought this was a chessable competitor and I was hoping for that replay feature.
Unfortunately this app, is not that. I have no idea what is this app’s purpose, it’s not teaching you openings, it’s watching your openings.
This app is definitely not for beginners or intermediate players like myself.
