Can't wait for the Android edition.
I recently made the switch to Android from IOS and was surprised not to find Hiarcs in the Play Store.

Re: Hiarcs for android?
I hope it does not use Google for the license check, as I have De-Googled my phone. So I hope there is another way to handle this. A one time check would be fine with me, or even a every blue moon or so check.

Re: Hiarcs for android?
Hello,
Q2 2023 is almost over, can we have a new deadline, like July or August 2023 with Hiarcs for Android ?
Thanks a lot !!!
Just waiting for the new elo/evaluation settings for making chess progress slowly but surely...
Can't wait anymore !!! :-):-)

Hiarcs for Android has been promised since at least 2010, see the first post in this thread.
The site now says:
"Are the team at HIARCS making an Android Version?
Yes! HIARCS for Android is currently under development, despite some delays we expect it to be available in Q2 2023."
We can rely on that, can't we?
If it keeps getting delayed, I'll lose hope of ever having Hiarcs on Android.

Re: Hiarcs for android?
Could Mark answer to this hot question
Re: Hiarcs for android?
A few more hot questions for the A(ndroid)-Team :
- why does it have to be postponed so often?
- are the beta tests going well?
- can we count on multiple types of openingbooks and playing styles?
- can elo scores be saved for multiple players?
- will there be a guest mode?
- will play in splitscreen be possible, for playing comp-comp games at the same screen?
Of course I don't want to look impatient, but after so many years of promises...
Kindly Android Regards,
Tom

Re: Hiarcs for android?
The Android version is behind schedule due to other commitments over running and we only have a small team. However a huge amount of work has already gone into the app and it is close to alpha quality, working well in most regards with features currently roughly on a par with the HIARCS iOS apps.
The website is now updated with some screen shots of the new app here: https://www.hiarcs.com/android-chess.html

Re: Hiarcs for android?
Mark, thank you for your message.
The images look good and we look forward to the results of the beta tests.
I hope that from now on we will be kept informed with realistic information about further development. Thanks again.

I don't think we can count on it this year.

YES MARK CAN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Re: Hiarcs for android?
Hiarcs android app with the Hiarcs online opening book would be the best chess app ever!
The Hiarcs ecosystem with Explorer Pro Linux (AppImage, Flatpak) - Android app - Online opening book would be a blast and I’d be ready to pay double price for it.
Hiarcs is the best, and I have tried all paid and free software!
