About ChessDuo
Chess Duo is chess for two people, wherever you are. Start a room, share a short code, and play live on two iPhones. Or play pass and play on one phone, take on the computer, solve daily puzzles, and set up any position on the analysis board. Colors are assigned at random when the second player joins. You can FaceTime while you play so you can talk through moves. Built-in coaching helps beginners: a move guide, optional private hints, a piece guide, and a computer that can play a turn for you. Turn those assists off in Settings if you want a clean match. When a game ends you get a scorecard with accuracy by move, and Past games keeps those reviews on the phone. English, Portuguese, and Spanish are supported. No ads. No account signup. Just a name and a room code.
