    I love this app, but in order to give it a 5 star i would like this app to go to the next variation automatically when I am in study mode practicing an opening that I've downloaded in pgn format. Also many time when I am review mode it keeps jumping to study mode by itself. If these to things would change in the next update i will give it a 5 star.

    I wanted to use this to access my opening repertoire on mobile. Unfortunately, this app does not support SCID tree mask files so this is not possible. If you just want to use it to look up games on your phone, it should work nicely though.

    Can't search dates if there is only a year in the pgn file (1956.??.?? Doesn't work for example. The latest update says it updated to SF 11 but it did not and the engine isn't in the folder. Understand now. Maybe some better instructions in the help?

    Nice app...engine thinking arrows would be helpful and engine vs engine and two engine analysis would be nice....Scid is the "Gold Standard"...

    The (black) pieces are not visible! I have Xiaomi redmi 9. The problem has started to arise for quite a while. I use dark theme and thought this was it. But nothing, i had the same problem with other chess apps. Help me!

    I would like autoplay to be even faster, let us say, 0,5s per move. 1s seems too slow, and I never use it although I like this feature. Also the font of the players' names is too big, gigantic, they have not enough space on the screen. Please, make the font much smaller on order for the White and the Black's names be properly displayed on the screen of a smartphone.

    An almost perfect app. The only missing thing is the position search not available in the search header + not being able to add more lines in engine analysis output. I know some chess pros on android that use this app, it tells everything. Not a single flaw/slowdown with the whole Mega Database 2021 used in a scid si4 format, search is quicker than in ChessBase. It is really sad that this app is apparently not supported anymore ... (Chess PGN Master is not at all at the same level ...)

    Good day! I really appreciate the work of such a good chess app in the sense tjat a lot of features enables us to make a technical approach of devwloping our play through studying. However, it seems that i have a problem regarding the display of your pieces since it only lets me see letter instead of pieces. Can you do a check for this?

    Perfect ever app and a pgn tool for android platform, i recommend it to all chess lovers. If three more options are added, it will be a brilliant app ever, (example) 1. A Seperate autoplay button. 2. An engine evaluiton bar. 3. an arrow during analyzing best move. Thanks and best regards
