The interface works well, but I have some suggestions. The first suggestion is to allow players to choose their skill level when signing up. This will make initial pairings more fair. Next, it would be nice to be able to turn chat off or block a player when they are rude. Third is to implement anti-cheat and a report feature. Lastly, it would be nice if mate puzzles would accept all correct answers of the shortest length.

Fantastic app. Have been using Chess By Post cross platform for at least a decade. One feature that I'd like to see added is the ability to flip the board to view the game from the opponents perspective. Turning the phone upside down doesn't quite cut it. All in all, this is the best chess app out there and worth every penny just to remove the tiny little ad on the free version. ✴️✴️✴️✴️✴️

I originally bought this as it worked so well on an old iPad. Then I bought it for my windows phone several years ago, and now with an Android phone I'm happy to pay for this wonderful, never failing, simple app. All I want to do with internet chess is make a move from time to time; not interested in progression, just playing a few nice games. This is brilliant and in my opinion, still the best app there is for correspondence chess. I heartily recommend this app; try it.
