## Description

Scan any board. Best move in seconds. Threat detection, tactics, and human-style coaching that actually teaches you chess.

Gambits Edge is your pocket chess coach. Scan any board. Get the best move in seconds.

Snap a photo of any board, real or on screen, and get instant position analysis, best moves, threat detection, and human-style coaching that explains WHY a move matters, not just an evaluation number.

WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT
- On-device scanning: the board is recognized right on your iPhone or iPad. Fast, private, and works offline with no internet needed.
- Coaching in plain English: named patterns (Scholar's Mate, Fried Liver, and 260+ more), move ratings from Blunder to Brilliant, and the reason the best move wins.
- Fix a mirrored scan in one tap: the new Rotate button flips the whole position instantly, no dragging pieces.

FEATURES
- Scan any board from a photo or a screenshot
- Best-move hints powered by a bundled Stockfish engine
- Threat detection and full position analysis
- Daily puzzles to sharpen your tactics
- A 261+ pattern library: openings, traps, mating patterns, tactics, sacrifices, strategy, pawn structures, and endgames
- Star your favorite patterns and filter or sort to find them fast
- Import and share positions as FEN, PGN, a board image, or a link

LEARN FASTER
Every explanation is built for humans, not engines. See the idea behind an opening, why a sacrifice works, and the exact winning line, so you actually improve.
