New Chessnut - Elevate Play 4+

Good start but issues

Good start to the new app.

But I had the app crash twice on me during live games.

Also this app does NOT work when the iPhone screen is locked. The old app did this fine. Please fix this

Hello, we always take the program crash issue very seriously. We hope you can provide more information about the crash so that we can fix it. Thank you.
You can send the detailed information to contact@chessnutech.com.

Good new feature!

I love the addition of extracting recorded games from the board directly. It makes analyzing the games played OTB so much easier. Good job! I wish the developer can do the same for games played against the bot. Currently, we can only see the moves played but can’t copy the PGN directly. I need to screenshot it, and then OCR the screenshot to get the PGN out. I hope it will be added in future updates.

Edit: I just found out that we can actually copy the PGNs from the bot matches. It’s just not clear in the first place. What a life saver!

Good Progress

This is a good start. However all of the YouTubers are showing the android version and it has so much more capabilities. Starting with Chess Vision which opens the door to many more apps being compatible. Downloading engines is a great feature but we don’t have it. Creating your own engine is also not available in iOS. Let’s go chessnut. Let’s get some equality here. Update: they have now added downloading engines to the iOS version. Thank you! Still not sure about chess vision. Update: playing by tapping is cool but I can’t castle! Thanks
Update: The castling issue is fixed!

We will try to keep the functions consistent, but there are still some technical issues that have not been resolved. Due to platform limitations, it is difficult to customize the engine on IOS.
