User Reviews for Chessify - Magic Chess Tools

Works just as I’d hoped

This app makes it so much easier to study chess! I much prefer to study with books and this app makes that process much more efficient, saving me the time from setting up a position.

Love the app, but

I love the app, but when doing analysis and running Stockfish I can see that someone is better but how do we know which color pieces have the advantage. It appears to be the same color for both. Some indication of who is better would be great.

This used to be good

This used to be great: cloud chess engine much more powerful than a good PC, on your phone, for a reasonable price. Now the speed (nps) of ‘Superfast’ analysis is abysmal - my phone czn fo same or better, for free. In addition, very often the app does bot even get past the starting screen, basically does not work at all. This is unfortunate because they website , separate from this app subscription, is still great (they need to optimize their interface, but analysis speed is excellent).

Ok but limited

Scan from camera often has a mistake or two but no big deal. What’s most lacking is the ability to use the scans as tactics problems ie seeing if you can work out the best move and have the software tell you if you were correct or not without going into analysis mode.

Excellent app for chess players

I have been looking for an app for a while to scan paper puzzles. This app comes very close. When u scan it gets most of the positions correct except for some reason queen (color) and Bishop. Minor thing! Thanks for the app.Update: 11/7. Not sure what has changed. Now the scanning is totally off. Not off by one or two pieces but off by most of the pieces. Something got really messed up in updates. I have sent errors through app. ThanksUpdate 12/24: recognition is much better again. Thanks Future feature suggestion: after scanning a position if there is an option to play against computer. Basically we are reading a book (silman’s) and it gives challenging end games. We want to try out all the positions against computer. Thanks and happy holidays

Love it; can you allow to edit saved games?

I love that I can save a game, but I’d love to add more moves to it after re-opening, save again for later without having to save to a *new* board. Or am I missing something??

When Scanning Photos

First off this app is great so farI am able to organize Chess boards from a book i am studying.However,When I take photos of boards my photos show newest at the TopFor some reason when looking at my photos from this App it switched the order of just the boards.This is just the data entry phase very boring and cookie cutterIt’s amazing how wrong you can be when entering information for the wrong board.It’s actually making my head spinJust letting you know this happened Again this app looks like exactly what I am looking for to organize my study of this bookKeep you updated on how it goes

Room for improvement

One of my biggest complaints with this app is how easily it just loses the position when your device goes on standby. I understand there’s a save feature, but most of the time we get sidetracked by something and don’t remember to save. Please implement an auto-save of some kind if app can’t stay running in a low-power state in the background. Also, iPad support should be a no brainer here. Are there plans for iPad support soon?

Broken / scams purchase

So I was told in needed to purchase to scan a book pdf but the app defaults to silver which won’t scan books. Trusting the app I paid for the silver but then realized the mistake as it still wouldn’t scan the pdf. So I upgraded to gold. But the broken app still shows I have silver year even though I paid for the one month of gold. So I tried to cancel everything and get my money back but cancelling not available for a couple days. Then the gold was able to be canceled but not the silver. Just avoid the whole mess. A nightmare and basically they took the money and I got nothing of what I wanted and I can’t get a refund. Buyer beware.

Frustrating scan function

I use this app primarily to solve tactics puzzles so I rely on the camera scan function a lot. However, 3 out of 5 times I scan a board the recognition is buggy. Either the board GUI is completely blank, or it shows an initial board. Missing a rank or file is not even failure to me since it at least recognizes part of the board. I subscribe to the analysis service but this scan bug makes the app essentially unusable. I hope it could be fixed in the coming updates.
