⚙️ HOW IT WORKS
The app uses Android’s Accessibility Service to read the pieces and moves of the supported game apps only, rebuild the position and show suggestions over the game. Apps that draw the board as a picture are read from screenshots taken only while the game is on screen; they stay on your phone and are discarded after reading. It never reads passwords, messages or other apps. Available in 13 languages.

🔒 PRIVACY
The analysis runs on your phone. The app sends anonymous usage statistics, and only if you agree, reports that help fix board reading. No account, no ads, and your data is never sold. Privacy policy: https://chess-stockfish-assistant.github.io/privacy/
