ChessBack: A Chess Application for the Visually Impaired
ChessBack is a chess application designed specifically for blind and visually impaired chess players. It is fully accessible and works well with all screen readers such as TalkBack, Voice Assistant, and more. The app offers a range of features, including offline play (human vs. human or human vs. Android), practice with forced mate sequences taken from grand master games, and solving mate-in-two puzzles. Additionally, users can play online with other players from FICS (Free Internet Chess Server).
It's important to note that ChessBack is currently in beta, and the developers are working hard to improve it. They request that users send feedback instead of giving poor ratings. Additionally, if you want to play ChessBack in a language that is not currently supported, the developers are happy to send a string resource file in English for translation. The app is free and ads-free, making it a great option for both beginner and professional chess players.
