I built an iPhone app for practicing chess openings

12/07/2026 19:05

Hi r/apple,

I’m the solo developer behind Chessmate, an iPhone app I built because I kept forgetting the chess openings I studied.

I could watch an opening video and understand the moves, but I often went blank when the same position appeared in a game. Chessmate turns each opening into a series of positions where you have to find the next move. Important moves have short explanations, and positions you struggle with come back for review.

The part I’m still working on is the balance between explanation and practice. Too much text interrupts the session, but short explanations can leave out useful context.

You can try it for free on the App Store:

Nothing about what you read leaves your devices — no ads, no tracking, no third-party analytics.
