(2025-06-30) Elisey Yakovlev: 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.
(2025-06-29) Deepak Shah: Nice
(2025-06-27) ranjit dixit: Fabulous! It worked.
(2025-06-26) Daymon Smith: 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!
(2025-06-25) monil sharma: not able to use on chess.com. The site (chess.com) blocks this extension
(2025-06-02) Péter Varga: Brilliant, very useful, thanks.
(2025-06-02) Qaiser Abbasi: It's really helpful!
(2025-05-27) Neel Kumar: 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.
(2025-05-25) walter raleigh: 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.
(2025-05-17) Kethav surya: 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
(2025-04-28) Tuấn Kiệt Trần: Best AI Chess I've Ever Seen
(2025-04-23) manga sharingan: not work in friendly match
(2025-04-23) Azraiel Bridger (Azraiel): 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 :/
(2025-04-17) Jacob J: Stopped working, just a plain white screen.
(2025-04-16) Mystic Drastic: thanks for making the best cheating tool for online chess

(2025-01-26) bandana kumari: very good
(2025-01-10) giampiero carmignani: 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.
(2025-01-10) David G. Larson: 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.
(2025-01-08) abhinav kuchibhotla: This IS A Very Good App To Learn Some Things Quite Quickly And It Is Helpful
(2024-12-29) Yahya Mohammed: good and accurate but the move text is hard to copy and paste

(2024-12-13) Artifact Nc: Great an efficient tool
(2024-12-11) Milad Hemati: 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.
(2024-12-11) Lakshya Narula: I love it. It's very helpful, fantastic, and useful!
(2024-12-04) amogus sus: sigma
(2024-11-30) e. Rogue: 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.
(2024-11-26) Magnus Bruce: greatly
(2024-11-24) Arushan: Not sure why it is absolutely essential to keep loading the engine for eternity. Update: The extension DOESN'T WORK AT ALL.
(2024-11-21) Nguyễn Kenben: great
(2024-11-05) Alessandro Terzuolo: Amazing, it recognizes the positions very well, it has an engine included that calculates the best moves, and it can export the FEN. Recommended.
(2024-10-30) Pash: I really love the simplicity and efficiency of this tool. I might see a variation in my head watching a chess video or studying a game on chessbase for example. And then I think I find a great move or am refuting something, I can immediately put it on a board with Stockfish loaded. Good stuff indeed, no complaints 5/5
(2024-10-24) Noah Faderbauer: Works perfectly! Really nice when watching a chess video on YouTube and wanting to check some moves.
(2024-09-25) Reizirth: I love it its very helpful, awesome, and useful! I would recommend to everyone :)))))
(2024-09-17) Ajay Ajay: How to work 1st best six moves on puzzle?
(2024-09-14) solsrngsweat: I keep on getting banned
(2024-09-12) lolipomfp: at some point the AI just fails to find any winning moves n jus does everyth in its power to lose. u can see the eval going lower and lower in favour of the bot losing
(2024-09-02) Marcel Sztorc: very good, and useful! would reccomend to anyone :)
(2024-08-23) MaksMi4: It doesnt work, Im getting message on chess.com like Do not use the extension in an ongoing game bla bla bla
(2024-08-21) Rosen Vladev: Dont think we have anything better like this. 5 starts for being the best product of this sort
(2024-08-19) Justin Dodge: I just wanted to load a position from a paused YouTube video - one click and it got it perfectly and I was able to load it into the analysis board on chess.com. Couldn't ask for more.
(2024-08-10) Khanh Đỗ Trọng (Bon): so bad
