Pros and cons of SmallChess Pro app for iPhone and iPad

SmallChess Pro app good for

Support this guy. He is working on this app. Its a GREAT app for those improving.

This is my fav new chess app! Great Al running on the Stockfish engine? I have most of the chess apps hiarcs, shredder, tchess, fritz etc. It has a tablebase, coaching, and comes with a 10,000 opening database. It also has clock settings. A really impressive layout. No online store yet though. Its pricey but I had to see it. It was worth the purchase. They could lower the price by a third. See for yourself! This could be the best chess app hands down. I play at a 1600 level.

Some bad moments

Smallchess is a wonderful app but something has been done to it in the latest update. The app crashes the moment you start to play. Other reviewers are saying its because entering training mode. Im not sure one way or the other. The developer just needs to fix this great app so it works again and then it will be 5 star. For now. Hold off downloading until its fixed.

Could be a really cool app but the paid version (unlike the free one) hangs on every single check!! Obviously it makes it totally unusable as a chess app :)

Just a small thing, Ted. When you reverse-the-board the coordinates dont reverse with the pieces. Also, could you possibly program coordinates all-the-way-around the board? PS. Analysis engine(s) can always be strengthened as well...

Do not purchase this app. I purchased it then I performed 2 matches against Hiarcs ELO rating at 2900 defeated Smallfish with "ELO of 3000+"??? You will know soon!

I like all the feature included in this app.. Can you please include following option.. - import pgn info from clipboard - universal app( iPad) Thanks

Would be a great app if it didnt unexpectedly "lose connection" while playing online.
