Chess Pro by Mastersoft App Reviews

Easily the best chess app out there.

It can really adjust to your level, its a great way to learn. I would rate it 5 stars if only it didnt nag me all the time for a review.

Great for learning chess and improving your game. I really like the chess piece and board designs too.

I dont see many differences between this and one dollar version(I bought this one using a different apple id). Only rating system, game statistics, and brightness change are added to it. Well, I dont mind that much cause it is worth buying...... But please add or fix these features and it will become much better app. 1. landscape mode I usually use my ipad in a landscape mode, and almost every chess software in appstore supports it. but this app doesnt. Its really annoying to play chess while holding ipad with one hand. 2. language support Well, I think you probably used google translator to translate english into other languages, because these translations are horrible. I hope you add language select option in the setting menu so that I can choose English rather than my mother language. 3. more engine settings - including game with clock mode this app only has level selecting option in the menu. I wish you add more functions like; 1)game with clock(options like game in X hours), so that I can play chess like in a real chess world- with limited time. I dont want to push "force move" button to make computer move quicker. pushing this button limits computers thinking depth. 2)engine ELO rating I want to see engines rating, not just my ELO rating. 3)engine thinking depth, thinking time I think adding options to select these things will be impossible as this app uses level selecting, not ELO selecting, but if possible, add some options to change engines ability. That will be great. 4.Add these chess set Design I want few more chessmen design such as 1)Alpha 2)Merida these are simple and elegant design and making these sets will not be that difficult. Add these only in a chess++version so that it will make this version more unique and price-worthy. 5. Special option I bought this app although I already had chess* version. But as I said above, I dont feel many differences. Make this app more special by adding something more than chess* version so that every additional purchasers like me would say "I made a good purchase! It worths more than just 7 dollars!" ------------------------------------------------------- Its been a long time since I wrote this review, but nothing has changed. In fact I only see status bar shown at the top of the screen after I updated. I want to hide status bar, but theres no option to hide it. I think this company is one of many which develops apps just for money. They even dont think about basic interface.

When I say graphics, I mean menu, icons and fonts which are PC-like, old generation. Anyway, the engine is agile and very well done for following your progresses. Definitively the best on IOS.

I wish I could play in landscape mode on my iPad though.

Good, especially for beginners

Great AI, vast choice of chess sets and tutorial.

After each game here is a request for review!!!

Fantastic!

As above, i really enjoy this

Very nice app, and the computer is really strong Please add a bluetooth-based game with a nearby iPhone or iPad Also would be very pleased to meet the tasks to train the player: e.g.: 1. find a checkmate in 2 or 3 moves 2. find a killing move to gain some advantage 3. hold a pawn in the end a game 4. checkmate using a knighr and a bishop I would also appreciate it if you add a list of most famous and most dramatic games between the worlds best chess players with an explanation of the the key moves of those games

Great also as chess teacher

Best chess app. Suggestions: 1. Allow "totally free board" mode for exercises which dont follow chess rules (ex. 4 pawn knight a1,b1,c1,... drill) 2. Mate & End game training

Best chess game in App Store.

I like it

Good fun game but so far have not been able to find multiplier games like on chess.com app. Fun just the same and great graphics

Great game I would give it five stars but it keeps harassing me to write a review.

Annoying 1 star too high

At the end of every game, it begs for a review with an annoying pop up. Gimme a break...
