Application Description

The Chess Tempo app, available for mobile and tablet devices, offers a comprehensive suite of tools designed to elevate your chess skills. Here’s an in-depth look at the features currently supported by the app:

CHESS TACTICS TRAINING

Enhance your tactical prowess with Chess Tempo's extensive library of over 100,000 puzzles. Whether you're looking to sharpen your winning strategies or bolster your defensive techniques, the app caters to both. Premium members can delve deeper with custom sets tailored to their specific needs. These sets can focus on particular tactical motifs like pins, forks, and discovered attacks, or target areas where you've previously faltered, allowing you to practice until you get it right. Additionally, the app uses a spaced repetition learning algorithm to prioritize puzzles you struggle with, ensuring efficient learning. Note that while you can use these custom sets on the app, you'll need to create them on the Chesstempo.com website first.

PLAY ONLINE

Engage in competitive play with other Chesstempo users through live or correspondence chess games. After each rated game, benefit from a comprehensive post-game analysis powered by our cluster of hundreds of Stockfish instances, delivering high-quality feedback in seconds. Premium members enjoy the added advantage of having tactics problems extracted from their games, which can then be solved within the tactics training interface and further refined using advanced custom sets.

OPENING TRAINING

Craft and refine your opening strategies with the ability to create multiple black and white repertoires. You can import these from PGN files or enter moves directly on the board. Utilize spaced repetition to train your repertoires effectively, with options to focus on specific branches, single repertoires, or all repertoires of a particular color. You can also limit training to a certain depth and target moves that are challenging to master. Enhance your learning by adding comments, engine evaluations, and annotations to each move, and export your repertoires, comments, and annotations to PGN. Track your progress with graphs showing your learning status and history. Free members have access to the opening explorer up to a depth of 10 moves, while premium members can leverage the cloud engine for deeper analysis on any position.

ENDGAME TRAINING

Sharpen your endgame skills with practice positions ranging from 3 to 7 pieces, drawn from real games. The app offers over 14,000 different positions, with free members receiving two new positions daily. Premium members unlock more daily positions and can use custom sets to focus on specific endgame types or recurring mistakes, utilizing spaced repetition for enhanced learning. Some custom set types require initial setup on the Chesstempo website.

GUESS THE MOVE

Immerse yourself in master games and test your decision-making skills by guessing the moves made by chess masters. This interactive learning method helps you understand and emulate the thought processes of top players.

ANALYSIS BOARD

Dive deep into position analysis using our cloud engines, a feature exclusive to premium members. These engines provide high-quality analysis without draining your device's battery. Diamond members can run up to 8 analysis threads, vastly increasing the speed and depth of analysis. Set up positions using FEN notation or the board editor, and review tactics problems post-completion to gain a clearer understanding of solutions.

The Chess Tempo app is your go-to resource for comprehensive chess training, designed to cater to both casual players and serious competitors looking to elevate their game.
