  I used to have a chess app that would say the name of the opening being used when you played. Then my tablet broke, and I thought it would be easy to find that chess app, but no luck.
  
  Does anyone know what app I'm talking about, or another app that says the name of the opening being used when you play it?

  It isn't likely to be the app you were using, but the Stockfish iOS app *displays* it:
