Seechess Support

Seechess turns any chess position you can see — a real board, a printed book diagram, a screen — into a live analysis board, and teaches openings with a community lesson library.

Frequently asked

Recognition missed some pieces — what now?
Drag any piece to the right square on the confirm screen, then continue. Retaking the photo with the whole board in frame and good lighting helps.

Does Seechess need an account or collect my data?
No accounts, no ads, no tracking. Photos are processed to detect the position; see the privacy policy.

Can I use it during online games?
Seechess is for learning and analysis after the game. Real-time engine assistance in rated play violates fair-play rules of chess platforms.

Demo images

Want to try the "Analyze a photo" feature without a chessboard at hand? Save any of these to your photo library and pick it in the app — or point the in-app camera at one of them on another screen.
