User Reviews

Users praise Chessable for strong courses and interactive study that helps improve chess for both beginners and more experienced players. However, the Android app is plagued by stability and usability problems: frequent crashes, slow/poor video playback, and readability issues due to tiny fonts and overlapping controls. Subscription management is a frequent pain point—difficulty unsubscribing, external-site processes, and perceived high costs. These issues dominate feedback, with many still recommending the content but urging significant fixes to app reliability, UI, and billing flows. Addressing these would align the app’s quality with its valuable course material.

Pros

High-quality, engaging courses with a wide range of material.
Interactive lessons and practical study methods.
Effective at improving chess; users report better understanding and even higher ratings.
Suitable for beginners and more advanced players with ample content.
Overall positive learning experience and frequent updates to course material.

Cons

App crashes frequently on Android and has stability issues.
Text/font size is too small and readability is poor (buttons overlapping, hard to read).
Subscription management is cumbersome or unclear; in-app options often lead to external sites and higher costs.
Offline video/download issues and slow playback/lag during lessons.
Costly Pro-only content and an expensive subscription tier.

Recent reviews

Frequently will not start up. It's good when it does but that's a minority of the time. Very disappointing. 😥. Since my initial review the app has started up without any issues! 😊
