A feature request for Droidfish and a question about Komodo

Post by h1a8 »

1. I enjoy Droidfish a lot. I just wish I could drag and drop the pieces when I move (like on Stockfish for iOS). Can this feature be implemented in android?

2. Also, any news update on Komodo for iOS? You guys thinking about Maybe including it with a GUI exactly like the Stockfish app, but with the features of Droidfish (multiple arrows for analysis)?

The sole reason I purchased iPad Pro 10.5 was for chess analysis (hoping for Komodo or at least an updated 64bit Stockfish engine for either Stockfish or smallfish). Otherwise I would have gotten the $300 IPad instead lol and continue to use my android phone for analysis. Right now my iPad Pro 10.5 is collecting dust.

Hint: All iOS apps must be 64 bits. Any 32 bits apps are now forbidden by Apple.

Ok cool. Sorry about that then.
Why does SmallChess pro take so long to reache a depth of 14 in the start position when analyzing? When I use Stockfish app instead it reaches depth 20 in very little time.


That's why I thought SmallChess used32bit instead of 64bit. Unless smallchess is using 1 core instead of 2.

Edit. I see now. SmallChess doesn't use the Stockfish engine. Well I wish I would have known this beforehand. Any plans to incorporate Stockfish (as an option to SmallChess)?
