Features & Capabilities

With Chess-wise 3 you can play chess, analyse games, annotate game notations, play online, solve exercises, watch training videos and much more.

Games are represented as trees, so they can have side-lines. This means when analysing moves, this will not anymore overwrite the moves of the main game
On the new annotation screen, you can add comments and !! - or ?? to the moves
The communication with the FICS server has been complete rewritten and is now much more stable
The FICS interface has more features (support for multiple accounts, iMessage-like chatting, friend list)
Improved database (re-order games in a PGN file) and setup screen (move pieces on the board)
Landscape views for the opening and endgame browser, showing the possible moves next to the board
Over 250 links to free training videos
Separate screen to select the pieces orientation, when playing with 2 players
Help file with tutorial for each major use case

Each screen has been re-designed to give a better user experience, focussing on the main actions that people want to do on that screen.

Any suggestions for further improvements (as well as bug reports) are welcome at info@chess-wise.com

User Reviews

The Adjourned games get stuck at 16 because of bad connection and the game won’t let you play after that. Hard to resolve that issue.

When it works, it works great. But half of the times, the FCIS option where I want to play speed chess against others — the lag of device input renders playing not possible. Sometimes hard booting my iPhone XR and then relaunching the ChessWise app seem to solve the issue, but recently that doesn’t appear to do much anymore.

Overall I like this app. Pretty much everything works, but I have a problem changing the level of difficulty in the settings. It is not accessible to a screen reader and probably needs to be redone so that it is accessible. I’m told it’s a drop-down menu but I can’t access or change it from the hardest level as it’s set as the default.
