"idChess is the future! You have the equipment for recording chess games recording in your pocket, no matter where you are playing. This tournament was a great example. I believe this technology will conquer the chess world and communities very easily. In Lebanon, we are very lucky to expand the use of idChess with all its helpful features for all chess enthusiasts. Players, arbiters and organizers can benefit from idChess in their own way."

"I discovered idChess while playing tournaments in Brazil. It was fantastic that everyone could broadcast their games using just their smartphones. Now, I was able to implement idChess in Argentina for the first time. idChess was essential for the coverage of the III Minero Chess Circuit."

"We had an exceptional experience using idChess to record games in our chess academy and broadcast chess tournaments organized by SmilingPawn.org. The application's sleek and user-friendly interface not only ensured easy adoption by chess arbiters but also elevated the overall experience for players. The inclusion of the VAR feature for fair play significantly contributed to the success of our chess tournaments."
