Our Expert Score
SparkChess Pro is perhaps the best chess app for someone looking to actually improve their game rather than just play. The 'Virtual Chess Coach' is a standout feature, offering real-time explanations of why a certain move might be a mistake or how it affects the board state. This educational layer makes it much more accessible than standard chess engines that simply give you a numerical evaluation.
The visual variety is excellent, ranging from clean 2D boards for serious study to a stunning 3D 'Fantasy' set that adds a bit of flair to casual matches. The multiplayer community is active and respectful, aided by the built-in anti-abuse measures. Whether you are learning your first openings or importing PGN files to study Grandmaster games, SparkChess Pro provides all the tools a chess lover could ask for in a beautiful, unified package.

Downgrading
Thu Apr 16 2020 EN500I loved playing SparkChess on the browser version. This is one of the first Apps I installed on my iPad. I recommend it to the students that I teach. I had a problem with an older version, but it was fixed. This is one of my favorite chess apps. It has a ton of features.
Great chess aid with a notable flaw
Sat Aug 03 2024 KRO51Enjoy all the training and options, however it’s terrible to use on an iPhone. The screen display (4.7”) is too small to consistently identify pieces on the board without spreading fingers. Then you lose the board positioning. The zoom/shrink/fight the rotation takes all the joy out of using the app. Not expensive, but the limited use makes me wish I had gone for the “lite” version. Not going to get an IPad just to use this app.
Hours of fun

Fix the bug with the 50 move rule
Thu Jun 13 2019 Eric MafuThe 50 move rule is only 25 moves for some reason. This can turn a win into a draw. Please fix.
