Helped me to solve the stupid Rule 16 of The Password Game right off the bat. Thanks!
Absolutely amazing, I'm using it everytime my mere mortal brain can't comprehend top players' positions on Twitch. Thank you so much!
It works best on Firefox, Safari, and Chrome. I give it a three because none of the extensions allow me to expand the view. The +/- make the board bigger. I need to drag the extension down to make it longer. Hopefully, newer updates will allow this.
Very useful and works great. Thank you.
The extension just does not work at all, i purchased a digital chess book and wanted to quickly analyze the positions so i downloaded this extension, and when i click "scan" it shows the position, but does not allow me to view the evaluation at all, nor view any moves
Works suprisingly well. Very useful, if you watch chess videos, and want sometimes to analyze a particular position. So far I haven't seen it making a mistake in transcribing image to chess position.
It is a very helpful extension that saved me a lot of time setting up positions to analyze I definitly recommend it👍❤️
Hi, how to reseize the Floating app window to fully display the analysis board? (Not +/- but making it higher). When hovering the mouse over the engine line you can see the engine moves in the lower board but it is only 5 ranks high. 8x8 columns would be useful. I couldn't find in the FAQ nor in the Tutorial.
Excellent Extension.
good
Used to work just fine. Now blocks out PDF files from being scanned which was my primary use for the extension so I could quickly load puzzles for my students on a virtual board.
Nice
Fabulous! It worked.
Great extension, works like a charm. It was very tedious before to put some positions manually into Lichess to analyze/play with the engine. Not anymore!
not able to use on chess.com. The site (chess.com) blocks this extension
Brilliant, very useful, thanks.
It's really helpful!
When you don't want to ruin some position you can use this tool as a second board to play on. Other thing is when you setup a opening variation it shows youtube videos related to it; for example I scanned a tarrasch varia of french and clicked on youtube button, It showed hanging pawns video with Exact timestamps.
www.chess.com is now blocking this extension, even for unrated games which is moronic. If chess.com is reading this, guess what - people are still cheating on your site, they are just using other methods. The purpose of this extension is to help junior players see what move would work best in a situation, and if the opponent is cheating. No one who wants to improve will use a program/cheat like this for the entire game, that is stupid. But for those of us trying to improve, this is an invaluable learning tool, and we don't care who wins - these are unrated games. chessvision.ai needs to update the extension and circumvent chess.com's moronic blocking of it.
Great for analyzing people's games on chess tv as its so hard for me to think what moves they are going to make and awesome making puzzles
Best AI Chess I've Ever Seen
not work in friendly match
does not work displays wrong moves for https://www.facebook.com/onlinechessroyaleclassiclike seriously it thinks the biships are pawns even though clearly in bishop board positions :/
I use the chessvision extension on a daily base. If I study e. g. Chessable courses in a browser (or positions within chessbook.com), I scan the training positions via chessvision extension to analyze it with an engine. It works perfect and the scan is very fast. I also can store the scanned positions, if I like.
Stopped working, just a plain white screen.
thanks for making the best cheating tool for online chess
Indispensible.
used this throughout my video watching sessions and it helps me analyze all the things i need to know about the position overall: a great extension
very handy!!!
Very useful plugin. Move of the day posts - explained!
I AM IN LOVEEEEE
turned my youtube spanish and was locked in spanish until i removed this from chrome
Genial!!
very good
Thank you! Great idea. Extremely useful and functional. It would be perfect if it could be used with a web PDF reader that has simple highlighting and annotation functions.
Incredibly useful. Adding analysis and position search to YouTube videos, connecting chess book diagrams to engines, upgrading Lichess and Chess.com interfaces—really a great app. And the low-rated reviews mostly have nothing to do with the extension, should definitely be 5 out of 5.
This IS A Very Good App To Learn Some Things Quite Quickly And It Is Helpful
good and accurate but the move text is hard to copy and paste
it's really helpful i love it
Love it!
no competitor for the browser scan and video search
Really Fun Tool! Always Helps Me Analyze Chess Games!
Great an efficient tool
absolute garbage extension. The servers are most of the time down. It will not help you other that lichess. clearly is affiliated with them. Would not recommend. There are many better options to choose from.
I love it. It's very helpful, fantastic, and useful!
sigma
It's great while watching a chess game on youtube and straight-away be able to analylze it on Lichess. Saves so much time not having to recreate by hand. 4 clicks instead of 100.
greatly
Not sure why it is absolutely essential to keep loading the engine for eternity. Update: The extension DOESN'T WORK AT ALL.
great
