TOTAL WASTE OF MONEY. Worked for a short while, then when you started it, the start screen would come on, then it would go totally black and nothing would happen even if you left it for a while. I tried reinstalling it but it was just the same. When are they going to fix this turkey which they haven't touched since 2017.

Awesome app, almost exact app i was searching just one thing missing which is to load UCI manually from phone storage. The features is in PC version(which is best chess app available for PC, I used it around for 3-4 months) were missing in android version, i want to fight with different engines, although fritz 15 is amazing, but it would be better.

A strong pocket-size Grandmaster with a pleasant user interface. Installed in a Moto G4 / Lineage OS 15.1. I didn't have any problems at all, this software is very responsive. Comes with Deep Fritz 15 (CCRL rating 3162, 20/06/2020), however you may install more engines. Can also load/save PGN databases with nice comment formatting.

I found a bug.That's when I move my queen to a square I chose, the computer then moves it to a square to its advantage and to my disadvantage. It makes me mad.Please fix this.I'm giving 3-stars.

When i touch the piece and want to move it to a square....it should atleast behave like it has been chosen to move...i am not able to see if i have chosen the piece or not. I don't know how to put it in simple language..sorry

Could be good if I could finish a game without it freezing when it is its turn to move. I'm supprised its devoleped by ChessBase GmbH. I would certainly pay if it was not so buggy.

About this app

Anyone who knows how to play chess has almost certainly heard of Fritz. In its early years Fritz was small enough to install on your PC from a ""floppy disk" (something today’s youngest players have probably never even heard of!). In 1995, Fritz won the Computer Chess World Championship, and soon made its way around the world on CD ROMs. The latest version, Fritz 15, is among the strongest multi-core engines in the world.

Now you can play Fritz on your mobile devices!

Chess is meant to be fun – and that’s why the Fritz App has several different playing modes. On the "Amateur" level, you can beat him comfortably. On level "Club Player", you get realistic games where Fritz will actively allow tactic combinations. Switch him to "Master" and it will become tough. Fritz will know every opening variation ever played in master games. But you still have your chances: The innovative "Assisted Play" function will give you subtle hints and protect you from simple blunders.
