Chess Studio

Chess Studio lets you read classic chess e-books and play through moves directly on the board — all in one app. Download the free app, then purchase titles from the Gambit library to start learning from the world's most respected chess publishers.

Read and analyze chess positions seamlessly. Text appears in Gambit's signature clear layout while you tap any move to instantly see it displayed on screen. As you progress through a book, the accompanying text scrolls automatically, keeping your place synchronized with the board. Navigate complex variations with ease, and flip the board to suit your preference.

Search across your library by player names, opening moves, or key phrases to find exactly what you're looking for. Jump between games and chapters without losing your flow. The app supports multiple layout options so you can customize how you study — whether you prefer a wide board view or a compact reading mode.
