User reviews
The Pro Version is excellent, and plays great chess. Now that running your own chess engines on the latest versions of Android is so difficult, this app really is the future. As mentioned by an earlier reviewer DGT USB support would be a really useful feature which would enable all traditional DGT E-Board/Smartboard...
Fantastic app.
Awesome. Love your apps. I was so exited when I realised you had released another one. Another exellent well done chess app. Thank you...
Very refreshing experience. Maybe consider adding support for USB DGT boards. Thank you.
I noticed you also have the Cfish licance. Are you planing to intigrate that engine in to the app?
Great app! Bought the premium features, with different personalities. My DGT Pegasus board arrived today, and it immediately connects to the app. Everything works great, as long as you're allowing the board LEDs to do their thing before playing the next move, but this is from the board, all other apps have problems ...
