I subscribed for the trial and I could never access the premium features. I reached out to customer service and never got a response after weeks or waiting. The app is not being actively managed. Look it up o line. So, I deleted the app and download another one.

Bought premium feature on monthly plan and transaction is made and amount deducted from my bank balance but still my access is blocked and I am not able to use the features. Edit:They actually worked pretty fast on it after talking with them on email and resolved the issue

Super cool app! Loved is so much I tried to upgrade to premium but it errors out. None of the premium content comes available even after trying to purchase. I'm literally trying to give them money, but not able. I just want to get better at chess and this was a fun way to do it. Unfortunately, until their premium subscription is working, I would not download this app.

it's a great app but it has big problems sometimes when I open the app it keeps freezing and when I try to sing up doesn't work I've been thinking about pay for it but until you solve the problems I'm not gonna do that other than it's a good app with fun and interactive puzzles and exercise.

I'm stuck on the loading screen. Trying to sign up for the app, and I'm not getting any feedback when I tap the sign up button after giving my sign up details. Edit: Been able to log in using my old details, though the sign up issue still remains. Now, the new issue is with subscription. I subbed to a monthly plan, but for some reason, it hasn't reflected in the app yet. It still thinks I haven't, and as such, the premium lessons are still locked for me

I really really like this app and wanted to upgrade to Premium. However, I kept getting an error message saying they couldn't contact the store. Email to customer support was not responded to so looks like this might be a dead app which is really unfortunate.

Use a free app, don't waste your time. Unplayable unless you pay the subscription fee. Earning enough credits to buy a single token takes literally hours, and you can't progress or even play certain online matches unless you unlock them with tokens.

The game overall is amazing, the only thing is that there is a bug where I can't unlock more lessons in the game. I have coins but it won't unlock the lessons. I can unlock characters to play against but that's it. Hope it gets fixed.

About 3 months ago I started a monthly subscription, and two months later I moved to a yearly subscribtion. But two days ago I noticed that the app didn't cancel my previous subscription an the I was paying both the monthly and the yearly, then I stopped both of them because I didn't want to pay for untrusted app. The yearly subscription was supposed to end in February 2024 but now the app doesn't give me access to the premium content that I've paid for 😕 👎👎👎

Great app for learning chess. Has high quality lessons. My only complaint is that it is buggy. Some puzzles have more than one solution but if you play the move not programmed into the solution it is marked as failed. This also happens in mate in 1 puzzles. Because of this you will not always score three stars. Sometimes the entire board gets randomly filled with pieces if you accidentally try to make a move without first identifying the motif first.

UNDERRATED APP, this is the best chess trainer app that ive seen like you can unlock lessons without using money and that alone is already really good i really like this app because it offers alot of benefits. Edit: i bought some gold coins i got it but suddenly it said there was a problem with my connection (i already had my own account signed up) then after a few seconds i lost my whole progress and i also lost the gold coins that i bought so i lost my money and my progress... Please fix it.
