Chess Tiger for Negative User Reviews

✓ It’s chess.The reason it’s only 3 stars not 5 is because they cut out things from their other app chess tigger pro that costs money so things aren’t there so if you look at the moves you’ve done so you can see things like what you did wrong and right it will only show you the first 5 moves..BattyJackEffVersion: 2019.06.1

✓ Removed features from free modeIn line with other reviews, the constant pop-ups and begging to go to the pay version is atrocious. Annoying your customer base is not a good way to make money. My favorite feature of this app was “set up position.” I like to play chess on a real board with a friend or roommate, then we will sometimes analyze our moves from a certain point on (v. the suggested moves from the app). Since the last update they now have the feature behind a paywall (but don’t worry, the button is still there, it just tells you that you have to pay for the “set up position” feature now). As a result, this app no longer has any unique features that I want - i can download a competitors app with the same features an not get bugged every time I open the app to upgrade..ZDogPharizleVersion: 2018.06

✓ Download another game-Disappointed with the UpdateI downloaded this game in the Summer of 2018 and loved it. You could work your way from lower to higher level Computer Opponents to improve your skills. Each time you met the requirement you got a token to use a pro-feature like setup position, analysis, playing a game with your friend. It gave you a taste of the Pro-version that would convince anyone to buy it because it was a good app. But then they updated it. With the update they cut the features I used to use. You will have 10 free credits to play some good games and higher level opponents but then it’ll water the game down more and you will have minimal features. Can you even really get into the apps features with 10 games? Or will you spend it trying out the features only for it shut those off when you run out. All the new info says “we just want you to buy the pro version” instead of what they offered before. I get you made the app to make $ but I know people who bought it because of the quality of the lit-version. It didn’t feel like a bait and switch before but now I’m disappointed..111chess111Version: 2018.08

✓ Misleading limited use app.This is not really a free app, but a limited use app. You get to play 12 games at which time most features are locked, and you are asked to upgrade to their pro app—of course as a separate app in order to avoid the “Apple tax” which is why you don’t see in app purchases by the description. And they tell you when they push the pro app from within the app that to be honest the purpose of the app is to get you to buy their pro app. This should be in the description of the app in the App Store. Something like, “Limited use app that is useless after a handful of uses just to push our pro app.”.Acubed123Version: 2018.08

✓ JeffIt was terrible..Rip Raw Rooster McGrawVersion: 2019.06.1

✓ Very AnnoyingYes it's free and has great features but the credit system and nagging for the paid version is more annoying than adverts..ZumojugoVersion: 2017.01

✓ This “free” game that you pay for. Use different appThe fact that a “free” game basically coerces you into buying the pro version by limiting the number of ‘free’ games you have is absolutely ridiculous. This is an attempt by money hungry developers to exploit people for playing one of the oldest games in history. It doesn’t cost the developers that much money to maintain this game. In closing, there is a bunch of other chess apps that are actually free. Use those. Don’t use this crappy app. The developers should be ashamed of themselves. It is an absolute disgrace to call yourself a free app and then when you start basically you’re like oh wait, now pay us money..Ryan9311Version: 2018.08

✓ GarbageThey updated the game so that its nearly unplayable. If you run out of credits you have to play a joke of a computer estimated 100 overall just to gain access to a worthy opponent. All the cool features of the app go out the window when they refuse to give you access to any of them without paying. This app is great at showing you what it feels like to be in indentured servitude with regards to the chess world. I am quite concerned Harriet Tubman make reincarnate just to free people from this app in underground railroad fashion. Id rather play checkers on an ibm thinkpad running windows 98 than chess on my iphone 6s because of this app. Do not get!.BritishbritVersion: 2017.01

✓ Poor move libraryIt always plays the same as in always same moves I play certain move. Gets really dull after a while as I now know exactly what moves it will play..Captain J HookVersion: 2017.01

✓ Was GreatThe newest update is disappointing. Sure, it’s great to have a chess coach and great analysis of games played, but not everyone is wanting that much of an in-depth game. Personally speaking, I want to get on, play against a variety of opponents and maybe turn on suggestions when I am curious on what a good move might be. The little notifications of “master move, genius move, good move, etc” are great. I would easily rate this 5 stars if it went back to a ticket type of game, where if you were out of credits or tickets, you were forced to play against rocks for opponents. Maybe update the game again and for us freebie folk, have 3 difficulty modes (500, 1000, 1800?) to satiate the quick chess game desire. 550 opponents is great for speed chess... but not traditional challenges. :/.DudeyehVersion: 2018.08

✓ Very disappointing updateWhen going to settings and clicking on the link saying I have zero free games left, the developer says something like, “Let’s be honest, we offer the free version in hopes that you will purchase the paid version”. Unfortunately, your paid version is $10 (which is from your a “limited time” offer of 50% off - haha). Not many people are paying $10 for a chess app. I would pay a few bucks, but that’s all. I think many people are like me in this regard. Obviously, the developer is overvaluing the price of this app and thinks that eliminating the free version will drive people to purchase the overpriced pro version. That won’t happen, but hey, that’s his right. So instead of having a reasonably priced game which many people would buy (because it’s a great app), they make the free version useless and alienate all of the loyal players who would’ve paid if it was priced reasonably. Now it’s on to searching for another chess app...it’s not like there aren’t a million others to choose from. Sure seems like a poor decision on their part. Five people paying $3 for the app (and recommending to their friends) is better than one person paying $10. Just sayin’..RenoTribeFanVersion: 2018.06

✓ Not bad I guessNot bad over all, but it's basically a trial for the paid app. and so it has its own advert that pops up every time you open it to ask if you wanna buy the full version. You start with credits that run down if you take moves back (and when you don't!) or lose a game. When the credits are gone .. so are some features. They don't seem to care about fixing bugs in the free version .. "because it's free and we want you to buy the full version" and "you shouldn't expect the free version to be perfect".DetjoVersion: 2017.01

✓ Same openings over and overI will be seeking a refund for this app. The most common opening you face in chess is e4 e5 yet the engine never plays this move. It LOVES the alekhine against e4 as white it nearly always opens Nf3. Its pretty obvious it only knows a few openings as the exact same lines are played over and over. I know you can set up a position yourself but it’s not the same..NeverBeenTimidVersion: 2019.06.1

✓ Waste of timeYou keep trying to get me to buy a over priced chess game ten dollars ten! You must be out of your mind every time I try to play on it pops up the first time you did this I was like I’ll just stick with this but now it got serious when you started taking away stuff you made a fake update and saying bug fixes. Even though you were really just taking away the permission to change the level of your trainer and change the way your chessboard and chess pieces were and you saying buy this app for 10 💵 For these things I will not be needing your services again ever again.The boy 2218733333Version: 2018.08

✓ YepIt can get boring.😤😠😡😳🥵Version: 2019.06.1

✓ Generally good...butCan you get rid of that annoying red board which is a waste of space and tells me nothing particularly useful and replace is with something that quickly tells me whether the move just made is an innacuracy, mistake or a blunder. Any why that call was made..CitizenxyzVersion: 2019.06.1

✓ Has potential but free version is annoyingIf you're learning to play then this app has some promise. However the free version is like a non-stop annoying pitch at every turn for you to buy the app. And the credit system seems geared towards getting you to do just that. Don't get me wrong, developers should make money from their work but I much prefer it when they try to get you to buy their pro version by wowing you with their free version and not incessantly asking to buy buy buy. I'm deleting this app..LilRudebwoyVersion: 2017.01
