Reviews: What People Think About Next Chess Move
The Redstone Pro
Rating: 4/5
It’s a good app, but I really don’t see any major advantages to using this over the free website, they both give you access to pretty much the same things. I may be nitpicking but in my opinion if you pay for an app you should get access to some premium features, I’m not saying paid users should get access to the most advanced hardware, I just think people that pay for the app should be paying for more features compared to the website, instead of the app being practically a carbon copy of the free website. Other than that, great app! Keep up the good work.

It may not be intuitive but as soon as you learn how to use this app, it is very helpful in the move analysis. I have upgraded to the pro version as I can make use of the 20core CPU in move calculations - with 4 different engines. For now I don’t have to buy a muti-core PC for the purposes of doing move analysis as this app allows me do the same.
My suggestion for improvement - while it it compatible with iPad, it does not do the landscape format. Thus it is a little bit awkward to the edit on my saved boards using the iPad as the display is in the portrait mode, and my keyboard is oriented on the landscape.
Another thing if possible is to increase the analysis time as the max time is only 30seconds. While 30 sec analysis can do a lot, the additional time will ensure that you are getting the best move possible within that alloted time. I know it means addition of more hardware and more costs. You get what you pay for, and for me if I am getting my money’s worth, I could possible pay more.

The app gives the impression of a ‘premium’ feel, if you will. It has a very modern look, and it is simplistic to utilize.
Despite all those positive comments, there is room for improvement.
I’ve noticed that if an illegal move is made on the board, if I’d copied the FEN/PGN, it won’t give you the exact game (PGN), only the current position from were the illegal move was made. This is a problem because when you castle, legally, the chess game will not show every move being made when you copy the PGN.
I do know, and it makes sense, as to why the whole chess game won’t show, as it is an illegal move, but castling shouldn’t be considered illegal. I do wonder if there is a way to castle, however, if not, I’d recommend that if you ‘capture’, or place the King in the Rook’s square, you’d castle.
Ultimately, there are many feedback by users, and suggestions, and should be taken to consideration. This app is great, and it deserves five stars.
