Pros and cons of Chess Masters app for iPhone and iPad

Chess Masters app good for

I love this app because it looks nice, does what it says it will do, ( chess puzzles) and had built in chess vs. computer. Honestly onemy favourite apps.
Master moves is good to improve chess skills for me. But some bugs exists. For example, Level 4, Morphy - Meek game, etc.
Very good app. Nice graphics, nice AI. HIGHLY recommend this app for all of you who like chess.
Remove the titles with hint like "Queen sacrifice", please. Otherwise its too easy.

Some bad moments

This is a very well made chess game, very fluid with no hiccups...thumbs up!
This is a good Chess workout app, but I have one issue. On many of the challenges, the solution is all but given to you in the title of the challenge, i.e. "Pawn Promotion to Knight", or "Knight Fork". In the latter example, there was only one black knight on the board, so it becomes very obvious what the right move is.
app is ok so far but the solution to most of the chess problems is simply found in the title. this is lazy, dumb, bad design.
Only issue Ive found is the title gives away the solution. I make sure I cover the top of the screen when I play.
I love how its designed, plus colors. Teaches you to play, and gives some tips.
I know how to play. Sometimes it will not let you make certain moves!!! Or when I move my pawn up two spaces it only recognizes one...
