[2013-05-01] A Google User: Just One Complaint I was in the scoring phase of a game when I accidentally pressed the back button. When I returned to the game I couldn't mark dead stones. Because of that I lost around forty points and the game. |

[2013-01-30] A Google User: Clean The board is the cleanest on my phone. Panda tetsuki board and stones are too detailed for the phone display. Playing however is not so smooth. |

[2012-09-07] A Google User: Panda tetsuki Any complaints about this app, people need to try Panda tetsuki and try to log on using different id other than one created by this app. So this app is about only good for registration? |

[2012-02-03] A Google User: Very nice piece of software. Can use trackball to move your stone on the board but you can not put stone on the goban. |

[2012-01-23] A Google User: A good start I would like to see better controls for observing games. The forward/back buttons are too close together and too small. When trying to step through a game one move at a time it is really easy to accidentally leap to the beginning or end. A display of the current move number and a way to go to a specific move would be nice. I would also like to be able to scroll through the moves smoothly. Minor cosmetic issue: the extension of the image at bottom of the board is weird on the xoom. I have not found a way to set my status on IGS to 'not accepting invitations' |
