Forward Chess brings the full experience of a chess book and a physical board directly to the palm of your hand!
Forward Chess is your interactive digital chess book reader. Study the book, play through the author's lines, and experiment with your own ideas. At any point, you can call upon the integrated Stockfish engine—one of the world's strongest chess engines—to evaluate the book's recommendations or analyze your personal variations. It's like having a complete chess library, a board, and a powerful analysis tool all combined in one portable device.
A key strength of Forward Chess is its ergonomic design. The engineers have implemented easy-access "Previous" and "Next" buttons for smooth move navigation, along with a single-tap "snap-to-position" feature that lets you jump directly to any move on the board. The diagrams are resizable for comfortable viewing.
For broader navigation, Forward Chess enables you to jump straight to specific chapters, scroll fluidly within a chapter, and effortlessly navigate through complex variation trees.
Forward Chess now supports full note-taking: create, edit, and delete your annotations. The app also allows for multiple bookmarks per book.
Forward Chess currently features titles from these renowned chess publishers: Quality Chess, Chess Stars, Russell Enterprises, Chess Informant, New In Chess, and Mongoose Press.
Dozens of recent releases from these publishers are available for purchase in the in-app bookstore. You can also download several free sample books for an instant trial.
Forward Chess is designed to drive your chess training to new heights!
