I can see some improvements in the new app but it is still missing the practice vs computer option from the post game analysis board. I like to use that to finish games where my opponent resigns. Still using the old app until that's added.

I seriously don't get all the bad reviews. Almost like people forget this is open source. Great free content, unlimited puzzles at different difficulties, and can study user made mini courses. The UX is much cleaner and fresh too. Edit okay, new bug, needing to tap pieces multiple times before they move. Games unplayable. I literally came here after I got flagged trying to move my queen away from a square. I'm rated 1500 so no excuses about not knowing the rules.
