Zur Sofortbeurteilung von Stellungen top
Zur Sofortbeurteilung von Stellungen top - mittlerweile wird fast jedes Bild erkannt. Schnelle Engine dahinter inkl. Varianten. Praktisch.
Versprochenes wird nicht eingehalten!
-Kein Pro Tool! -Analyse Geschwindigkeit der App 3000Kn/sec das ist sehr langsam. Schneller ist mein Handy. -1 Jahr lang Problem angesprochen, 1 Jahr lang keine Antwort bekommen! Nicht zu Empfehlen, Im Gegenteil eher Betrug. Sehr enttäuscht. Schämt euch
Registration problem
Registration in Web version can not be used with app ?
Scan Funktion bug
Der Scan funktioniert nicht zuverlässig. Gescanntes Schachbrett verschwindet nach einigen Zügen und muss immer wieder neu gescannt werden. Programm ist so nicht zu gebrauchen. Schade, da ansonsten gut.
Leider keine iPad Version...
nur eine iPhone Version, die den vorhandenen Platz nicht nutzt. Immerhin wurde das Limit für Scannen auf 100 Stellungen angehoben, gut.
Very Good, but no one-time-purchase
Very good and helpful. But please think about a one-time-purchase for features which don‘t need cloud services or something else with costs. For a few scannings per months i don‘t like to pay every month. Edit: didn‘t see, that 100 scans per month are included. This works fine for me. Updated rating to 5 stars. 🙂
Scanner hanging
Unfortunately the scanner function doesn’t work properly. Please fix this!
Scan Funktion top!
Das scannen von Schachpositionen funktioniert gut, die deutsche Übersetzung ist aber eine absolute Katastrophe! Zudem wird nur die englische Notation angezeigt (N statt S für Springer etc) und die Cloudanalysen werden nicht mitgespeichert, deshalb 1 Stern Abzug.
Good app, new update doesn’t work on my devices
I liked this app a lot before the last new version changed the scan mode. It is in my opinion the main feature of this app. Now, I can’t handle it any more. The scan is always different than in my books. Pls help me,
Very helpful!
Very good
Full of bugs
Since the last 2 updates the scan hangs
Easy to use!!!!
