I love this app! I've learned to play better in the month I've been playing. The free version is excellent and I hope to get the full version soon.

I enjoy the app. It’s fun, and it’s rich with features, but some of the lessons where Dr. Wolf critiques your “mistakes” are wrong. I’ve had two instances in the past 24 hours where it’s telling me I made the wrong move, but if I done what he suggested, I would be checkmated immediately. I’m not a chess master by any means. I’m a beginner, but I’ve screenshotted it and sent it to an advanced player and he agreed that had I took Dr Wolf’s advice I would be checkmated and lost the match.

I received advice on a move that was impossible. It was to give a check with a bishop on a light square whereas the opposing king was on a dark square

I like it a lot it’s got great lessons and the challenger option is fun . But this weird thing happened where I logged in one day and the option where Dr .Wolf stopped talking about my moves and now he only talks when I beat a challenger and if I move a piece and the piece is pinned to my king or I move my king Into check

The teaching method is solid for the most part but too often I’m told something is a better move without any explanation at all. Instead of being helpful, it’s just frustrating.

Wer hat das Spiel von der Pike auf lernen will mit einem geduldigen und humorvollen Coach, der kann keine bessere App als diese finden in der weiten Welt der Schach-Applikationen. Macht Spaß und Lust auch auf Schachpartien in der richtigen Welt. Logisch aufgebaut und unvergleichlich übersichtlich.

The program is basically good but it has some issues relating to the lessons and training. The lessons cover a lot of good material but are sometimes shallow and sometimes confusing. There's a fair amount of "what" but not enough "why". Also, in training, I encountered some glaring oversights, like encouraging a particular move while ignoring that a different move would block a checkmate that was one or two moves away. Lastly, the subscription was a reasonable amount for the first year when the lessons were needed, but less so after that.

Great way to teach and practice core concepts. Yet too often the coach will recommend a move but it’s not clear why it’s the right move. And there is no one to ask. It seems like it wouldn’t be hard to add this or a similar feature to improve explainability and understanding.
