Report an issuetChess Pro is the high-quality, critically acclaimed chess game with the richest features for the iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad. It's perfect for every player:
Beginners: Not everybody is a chess master! Most chess games are too strong or just make random mistakes at easier levels. tChess Pro has unique algorithms to simulate human opponents.
Experts: tChess Pro has a top-tier chess engine. (Over 380 ELO points stronger than Caissa Chess.)
Enthusiasts: tChess Pro's Analysis Mode is like having a chess master in your pocket. You can get the engine's "expert opinion" about any game or position in real-time: which side is winning, and the best sequence of moves. Just like a professional desktop chess package.
More key features: - Perfect for 1- or 2-player games - Strong computer opponent - Play against any ELO rating from 500 to 2500 - Integrated "Learn Chess" e-book app (Apple Staff Favorite!) - Opening Library feature lets you explore chess opening theory as you play - PGN Database feature lets you download and view PGN files - Support for 3-stage time controls with Fischer increments - Position Editor to enter positions from books, newspapers, etc. - Save and load games; export them in standard PGN format - Use the Profile feature to play rated games against the computer and track your progress
tChess Pro is developed by Tom Kerrigan, author of the TSCP and Stobor chess engines.

8 of 25Excellent. Best chess app on the App Store!!!
Thank you so much for making this app available. Download this app, you will not be sorry.!
Great chess app. For some reason the last updated erased all of my saved games!
tChessPro lacks only one feature that I need. That is an evaluation bar on the side of the chessboard. Whether for OTB play with the computer or for analysis. This is really a must for a 2024 program.
Provides several responses to the same strategy and is constantly challenging and povides levels that are way beyond my ability. Helps keep me sharp.
The board looks great. Plays quick but not mechanical. Easy to adjust difficulty. Love this app.
Computer plays consistent game. Has really helped me improve my game.
Many years ago, I had an issue with some saves and got an immediate response. The developer is kind and brilliant. Out of all the chess games I play, Xbox, PC, iPhone, this is by far my favorite. I love the 3D modeling as well.
