Great score recorder ... Record games by clicking your chess moves on a nice screen. This is not a game. You can replay games. You can enter games from books and watch later.

One of the guys at my chess club a high rated players was using this application and our chess club is very picky about which apps you can use during your game of chess, this is one of the few that meets the qualifications for using in a sanctioned tournament so I really do like it

Decent application although navigation through menus is a little odd. I reported (by email to dev) a couple of bugs: in resulting notation, Castling is represented with zeroes rather than capital O, (should be O-O not 0-0 for example) and resulting pgn file is invalid. Last I checked, players names are not copied properly (last and first name are mixed up). Otherwise this more or less works.

I've used this app before and had good results. Today (2.5.15) I was using it to record an OTB game with a fellow musician and player I haven't seen in a long while. In the middle of the first game the app froze, went back to the starting position, and then would not let me load any more moves. Grrr......Pencil and paper seem to be the only real choice.

I love what this app is I have been using it to record correspondence games. Unfortunately I have an issue when I exit the app, come back later, resume a game and pices are either back to a previous position or have simply vanished. Forcing me to replay the moves back in a fresh game. Fortunately the recorded moves are correct so I haven't lost the game information completely.

However when ever I load a PGN saved from this app in a viewer I only get half the game I played. Emailing the notation does work successfully. Still disappointed that I don't get the full game saved in PGN.
