Answers.Text: Analyze This is my *favorite* chess app.  I especially like that it can take any position from a PGN, render it as a graphical image of the chess board, and share it.  Though I suspect my non-chess friends on social media are starting to get a bit tired of it - since I post chess positions quite frequently since I've had this app.  :-)

Answers.Body: <p>I know there are already a lot of answers here, but one that isn't mentioned is the Chess24 app. I really like the tactics trainer from the app and find that for the money it is a better value than others I've seen. (Should still be $20 for 1yr of unlimited tactics.) There are also great apps for iOS at least that allow you to read chess books and follow along with a chessboard like Forward Chess or e+books Chess. I have found this to be incredibly helpful in studying.</p>

Answers.Body: <p>For the several facets of the game, you may use different apps. I include them all on the comments, since I'm not allowed to post them here.</p>
  
  <p><strong>Tactics:</strong> This very important part of the game can be trained by the already mentioned app "Tactics Trainer". I'm a daily user, and it's excellent.</p>
  
  <p><strong>Openings:</strong> The best app I can think of in this area is "Chess Repertoire". The app is excellent, with a nice clean design and with more opening positions that you'll need. It even has space for personal annotations and novelties. The sole drawback is that only the first moves are free, and you've to pay for the rest of it.</p>
  
  <p><strong>Endgame:</strong> I've been recommended "Chess Endings", which is not free, and cannot say much about it. You may try it.</p>
  
  <p><strong>Casual play:</strong> I strongly suggest the <a href="http://www.chess.com" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Chess.com</a> app. You have a few additional tactics problems, but the interesting thing is the correspondence and live chess, playing whenever you feel.</p>
  
  <p><strong>Analysis:</strong> With abysmal difference, the best analysis tool you can possess for a mobile device is "Scid". It is beautiful, the pieces are shown clearly, there's space for the game score and admits an engine. It also allows you to export games to .pgn and many more things. Priceless, but open source and free.
  Despite it comes with an engine by default, Stockfish, downloadable from <a href="http://stockfishchess.org/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">here</a>, can be compiled into any Linux device, and it's certainly the best option if you possess an Android.</p>

  Try this app, [Tactics Trainer](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.thecvsi.tactictrainer&hl=es). It has helped me a lot and has a lot of puzzles, but I dunno if it has an iOS version.
  
  I play at [chess.com](http://www.chess.com), which has an app, too, for android and iOs. I play with real people and it has 3 free puzzles per day.
  
  Both apps have some graphics about your games or puzzles, and your ELO rating.
  
  Edit:
  
  By the way, [chessimo](http://www.chessimo.com) is really good but I don't think it has a free version, or it is just a demo; to get the full version you have to pay, but it is really good, it was the first Tactics trainer app I used.

  I know there are already a lot of answers here, but one that isn't mentioned is the Chess24 app. I really like the tactics trainer from the app and find that for the money it is a better value than others I've seen. (Should still be $20 for 1yr of unlimited tactics.) There are also great apps for iOS at least that allow you to read chess books and follow along with a chessboard like Forward Chess or e+books Chess. I have found this to be incredibly helpful in studying.

  You can try Christal Kernel's [Chess Wizard](https://itunes.apple.com/in/app/chess-wizard/id916537412?mt=8) for iOS.
  
  It trains you while playing. It gives a feeling that there is a real coach around. Throws situation based puzzle on the board. Makes the game interesting for the learners.

  Try [Chess Run](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dorisstreetgames.chessrun "Chess Run")
  
  It's a chess-based platform game - not a pure chess game but a platform game featuring the standard chess pieces which are used to cross a burning board filled with enemy pieces.
  You have the option of highlighting squares that your pieces can move to so it's a good way of learning the moves. It's also fast-paced so will help with speed chess.

  For the several facets of the game, you may use different apps. I include them all on the comments, since I'm not allowed to post them here.
  
  **Tactics:** This very important part of the game can be trained by the already mentioned app "Tactics Trainer". I'm a daily user, and it's excellent.
  
  **Openings:** The best app I can think of in this area is "Chess Repertoire". The app is excellent, with a nice clean design and with more opening positions that you'll need. It even has space for personal annotations and novelties. The sole drawback is that only the first moves are free, and you've to pay for the rest of it.
  
  **Endgame:** I've been recommended "Chess Endings", which is not free, and cannot say much about it. You may try it.
  
  **Casual play:** I strongly suggest the [Chess.com](http://www.chess.com) app. You have a few additional tactics problems, but the interesting thing is the correspondence and live chess, playing whenever you feel.
  
  **Analysis:** With abysmal difference, the best analysis tool you can possess for a mobile device is "Scid". It is beautiful, the pieces are shown clearly, there's space for the game score and admits an engine. It also allows you to export games to .pgn and many more things. Priceless, but open source and free.
  Despite it comes with an engine by default, Stockfish, downloadable from [here](http://stockfishchess.org/), can be compiled into any Linux device, and it's certainly the best option if you possess an Android.
