Description
Chess Now AI turns your iPhone or iPad into a chess terminal and, via AirPlay, your TV into the board. The on-device engine runs 100% offline and adapts to your skill level, whether you're learning openings or looking for a real challenge. Watch the game unfold on the big screen for easier visualization, track move history in a clean minimalist interface, and play with total privacy — no ads, no accounts, no data tracking. Great for solo practice, coaching, or just spectator-friendly games.
