Key Features:
* Fast Algebraic Input: Enter moves with a single tap using a custom chess keypad. Pieces (K,Q,R,B,N,P), files (a–h), ranks (1–8), and symbols (+,x,#,=) are all available at your fingertips. No more struggling with a standard keyboard to type Nf3 or 0-0-0 – this keyboard is built for chess notation!
* Record & Save Games: Log every match in clean algebraic notation. Save complete game scores in PGN format on your device. It’s like a digital scorebook – instantly review any game or share the PGN with coaches and friends for analysis.
* Study and Improve: Replay your past games move-by-move to analyze your decisions. Identify mistakes and missed tactics by studying the notation. The app helps turn each recorded game into a learning opportunity. Learn from your own moves to refine your plans and avoid repeating errors.
* Strategy Training: Use your game records to train yourself. By regularly reviewing your games, you’ll start to recognize patterns and improve your chess strategy over time. It’s a personalized training tool – the more you use it, the more you learn.
Why Use Chess Notation Keyboard?
– Ditch the paper score sheets: Keep your hands on your device instead of a pen. No more illegible handwriting or lost scoresheets – your entire game history can be safely stored digitally.
– Improve through reflection: Grandmasters say that reviewing your own games is one of the best ways to get better. This app makes that process easier. After each game, record it with the keyboard and later go through it to spot what went wrong or right. You’ll be effectively coaching yourself.
– Train for tournaments: If you’re preparing for tournament play, practicing notation is important (it’s required in official games). Chess Notation Keyboard can be your training buddy – you’ll get faster and more accurate at notating, so during real games you can focus on playing, not writing moves.
– Convenience for coaches and students: Coaches can quickly input students’ games to analyze together, or assign homework (like “enter this grandmaster game into notation”) to help students learn. Students can use it to email their coach a PGN of a game for feedback. It’s a handy tool for any chess mentorship.
How to Enable & Use (Android):
1. Install the app and open it. Follow the in-app guide to enable the keyboard in your device’s Settings > System > Languages & input > Virtual keyboards. (Don’t worry, it’s easy – the app will walk you through it step by step.)
2. After enabling, switch to Chess Notation Keyboard whenever you want to type chess moves. For example, open any notes app or PGN editor, tap to start typing, and change the keyboard input method to “Chess Notation Keyboard”. Now you’re ready to go!
3. During a game, simply tap the keys for each move (e.g. for e4, just tap ‘e’ and ‘4’; for Nf3, tap ‘N’, ‘f’, ‘3’). The keyboard automatically formats moves (including special cases like castling or promotions via dedicated keys).
4. When the game is over, save the notation from your notes app or export the PGN from Chess Notation Keyboard. You’ll have a complete record of the game to study or share.
That’s it – recording a game is that simple. No more juggling pen and paper, or trying to remember moves after the fact. Chess Notation Keyboard streamlines note-taking so you can focus on the game itself.
