Diamond is an app that does what it promises in an easy, non intrusive way. Installing it takes little space and is quick and easy. Logging on is easy both first time and later after you store your ICC/FICS info. Finding games is intuitive and playing is done in trouble free way. Apart from playing chess it also has a useful Stockfish analysis engine built in for easy evaluation of your play after the game. Chatting with other players is also covered with mobile friendly solutions. All in all a solid app that makes it easy to play chess on the mobile phone.
