🚀 Main Features:

♟️ Professional PGN Viewer

Open .pgn files of any size instantly, from a single game to massive databases.
Smooth move-by-move navigation.

NEW: Improved move notation with chess pieces (e.g., Nf3, Nxd5) for a more intuitive and cleaner display than traditional text notation.

🧠 Analysis with Engines in OEX Mode
The app uses an external chess engine.
I recommend the OEX Engines app.
