Chess - Learn Chess

As an absolute beginner, I found this app very helpful. Most things I already knew, but those are necessary basic things that must be covered. But, the things beyond them were new to me and begin to help one think about strategy. I found this app to be extremely helpful.

It explains the rules and strategies and is like a manual. But, it’s missing the most important component of any teaching/learning dynamic - the “now you try” portion. It doesn’t allow you to try the moves and doesn’t give you any feedback. It teaches you the rules - not how to actually play. I know all the steps of how to perform a surgery from reading about it - I’ve just had anyone to help me practice doing it myself. Not hands on.

This is an interactive step by step lesson in chess. The manual allows you to move the pieces in each chapter. So the learning is an active exercise and not just a passive, receptive one. In the future I’d like to see the graphics augmented to have a more 3-D appearance. But even without that it’s 5 stars. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I downloaded this app to teach my son how to play chess. However I have also benefitted a lot from the app. It tells me some basic patterns that I never realized before. Highly recommended for novice players who want to learn the patterns.

Very useful app in learning chess Explains the basics really well and gives opportunity to practice each move as you learn Very good idea for an app It’s simple and easy to use and provides a helpful amount of information on chess.
