Reviews: What People Think About Chess Clock by Chess.com

A really nice timer for casual games with your friends. I like the ability to save your own preset times, so you can play your favorite time easily. A great alternative to an analog or electric chess timer. I would definitely pay money for this app. The only thing I would have liked to see is a sound cue for the end of the game. Overall, a very solid chess timer.

I revised this two four stars because it does add an increment - note, NOT a delay - but it adds it back after your move. I believe that is called, “Fischer After”. You cannot change that method. I was looking for a clock that gave a simple delay Before the timer started. So I was befuddled because no matter how I set it, the clock started immediately and time was not added on in the beginning (Fischer Before) as was done with other clocks.
So, yeah, this works. But it would have been nice if the method was better described.

The app does what you need it to but the problem is that if you use more than one finger to hit the timer, it won’t count. You have to use one finger for it to consistently work. If you slap it like you would a regular button, multiple fingers touch at once and it will not always register a click to switch to your opponent. Easy fix on the developer’s end if they see this!
If using only one finger to hit the clock isn’t an issue for you, then this is a great app!
