For a 1.4 MB app very strong!!
Of course stockfish and other engines are stronger but for the average under 2300 players is perfect for practicing. Love it!! Amazing work for the creator
Wish it was updated so it could take advantage of iOS file app features to easy transfer and access files instead of iTunes very slow and annoying
Highly recommend it to u2200 players who need a sparring partner to practice or learn new opening lines
★★★★★Long Time Fan
A long time and loyal Richard Lang fan. The author will be in the chess programmers Hal of Fame if they ever create one. His chess programs dominated the chess programming world in the late 80's and early 90's.
All the best Richard!
Ps one of the few chess apps that display the board/menu correctly while using hotspot.
★★★★★Longtime fan
Chess Genius is a great app.
On my iPhone 6s when playing strength is set to "instant" and permanent brain off, CG beats Hiarcs set to 2300 on my iPad Air 2.
One area of improvement might be to adjust the playing level options or dynamically adapt the level descriptions to the power of the CPU/GPU because the first level after easy is now master on the latest iPhone.
Thanks for all the hours of chess fun and learning.
★★★☆☆Pluses and minuses on interface
There are a lot of options for chess engines. The icons for the pieces need an upgrade here. I found only one of six appealing.
Two have lo res graphics, which is unacceptable for a premium priced app. One set is ugly, and the Russian set is two shades of grey, without enough contrast.
The list of captured pieces is nice, and surprisingly missing from a lot of other apps.
★★★★★As good as the reviews indicate
Really quite amazing. The levels of expertise are well crafted. Implementation is robust. And friendly. And intuitive. 5 stars!
