Chess Engines for Android (APKs) / Blog: Recent posts

XBoard Chess Engines now only contain selected chess engines. At the moment these are Crafty, OliThink, Phalanx and TSCP. Under Chess for Android, these chess engines can now also read their own opening books. Simply copy the opening books into the respective private directory (simply create non-existent directories). The opening books can also be found in the APK file in the assets directory (simply rename apk to zip).... read more

In order to reduce the occupied storage space, each target architecture has now its own installation package. With the greatly reduced memory requirements, Minic and Seer now also included. This means that almost all UCI compatible chess engines for Android are now combined in one package.
