Reviews on Next Chess Move for iOS

★★★★☆ Good but not great
For 3 dollars it is nice to have on my phone if I want to see what moves I should have played in a game but I’d be willing to pay more for a feature that lets me use a screenshot or photo of a board to pre place the pieces rather than have to do it myself.
★★★☆☆ Kind of works
The app is pretty buggy amd decides sometimes that the best move is to delete a piece. I also wish it would show a few candidate options instead of just the top computed ones.
★★★★★ Worth it
This app does so much to hold my data and present me with multiple engine calculations. I invested in the Pro and will renew when the time comes. Sometimes “FREE” is very limited in what can do for your game. The Pro NCM is well worth the cost to me.
★★★★☆ Pretty good,
It’s a good app, but I really don’t see any major advantages to using this over the free website, they both give you access to pretty much the same things. I may be nitpicking but in my opinion if you pay for an app you should get access to some premium features, I’m not saying paid users should get access to the most advanced hardware, I just think people that pay for the app should be paying for more features compared to the website, instead of the app being practically a carbon copy of the fr
★★★★☆ No Arrows or Directional Lines
The app does not provide an arrow, or other directional indicators for the next best move. It does provide letter and number for the squares however. This addition would make the app much better and easier to use.
