If you do not need it and just want a quick solving to see the solution - start the solving process from the direct access button - press and hold for about 2 sec. the circle button under the diagram.
It is not necessary to include the app in Google Play because our chess composition community is not so big and the app is specific, it is not for the mass.
But you can download the free version directly from the article above or if you want to buy the full version you can do it directly from the button Buy Now on the left side of the website and I will send it to you by email. It is very easy way.
Later I send all new improved versions to composers also by email.
Mi amigo y especialista en ajedrez electronico y ajedrez portable Amador Cuesta Robledo me ha hablado de tu excelente programa ChessComposer 4.0.
Yo soy el presidente de la S.E.P.A. ( Sociedad Espanola de Problemistas de Ajedrez) y estaba interesado en saber hasta cuantas jugadas puede resolver ChessComposer 4.0 en los problemas de mate directo, mate de ayuda y mate inverso.
Me parece una aplicacion muy interesante y que puede sustituir al pc, no siempre tienes la oportunidad de acceder a el y esta aplicacion seria un sustituto ideal para cuando estas fuera del hogar.
Utilizo varios dispositivos Android y una iPad Air, ? Puedo instarlarla en mis diversos aparatos o solamente en uno?
Atentamente

Gracias! No hay problema para usar el programa en varios dispositivos, siempre y cuando estan con el sistema operativo Android. Puede instalar la version gratuita del programa en cualquier dispositivo desde el enlace en el articulo anterior. Y si quieres la version completa, que resuelve tareas a 4 platos - Puedo enviarle el archivo 2 - uno para instalar en su telefono y otro para la tableta.
La version completa del programa se puede pedir a boton "Buy Now", que esta en el lado izquierdo de la pagina. El precio es de 10 euros (y te enviare archivos para dos dispositivos)

Even now the app settings are permanent and you can open it every time with the board size and color which you were selected. Usually the Android OS phones have two important buttons: "Back" button which lead the phone (or app) one step back; main "Close" button for direct closing apps.
So to prepare ChessComposer to remember your settings do this:
- Select the size and color of the board which you want. Also can put some piece.
- Press the "Back" button several times till the app is closed.
- Open the app again. It will be with the initial settings, so select again the size and board color which you want. That is! Now the app always will start with the settings which you selected. BUT (!) - you should close it ALWAYS from the main "Close" button of the phone!
If sometime you close it from the "Back" button by mistake - no problem. Just repeat the same steps.
Try it and tell me is it OK. I tested it with many phones and it works.
Is it available for Apple iPhone & iPad als well? (iOS
Best wishes,
Dirk Borst.
We are very thankful to all composers which send to us ideas for new improvements! Many of them are included in this or will be included in the next version. Of course not all is possible... Hope to receive more opinions and ideas!
Branislav, many thanks for your opinion too. About your question: each piece can be rotated and all pieces (position) can be also rotated, these are so many calculations for the app when it generate the Popeye Input file, so for now only 0 degree diagram is supported and the developer can not program it for the next version. But who know, probably in the near future it will be included too, but for now there are some other new features which should be programmed. Hope even now the app is good enough and useful for you and other composers.
Congratulations!!
A very good product."
I received this comment today. Thank you Pedro! I am happy that you like the app.
