EasyGo is a multi-function go software designed to help you improve your go skills and enjoy the go game:
1. Extensive problems bundled
EasyGo has total 2400 problems bundled ranging from basics, life and death, tesuji and endgame. And the 893 problems on life and death have extensive variations built in to respond to all of your possible moves.
2. A lot of ways to study problems
• Problem Practice - Sort problems by total tried times, wrong times, and win rate or shuffle problems. Random swap color and rotate board. If the opponent have multiple variations, you can tap the alternate move mark to switch to that variation.
• Problem Test - Take standard test(20 problems in 10 minutes) or custom test, in which you can customize the total problem number, test time. During problem test, the restart, try, show solution button are disabled. The standard tests for the bundled problems are integrated with game center leaderboard. Test history is saved automatically. And you can review all the problems answered incorrectly later.
• Spaced Repetition System - EasyGo includes a spaced repetition system (SRS) to help you study go problems more effectively. Basically, it works like this: you are shown a problem and you choose “Fail”, “Hard”, or “Easy” according to how well you know it. The system will automatically present the problem again for review in the future. That is, EasyGo works like a flashcard application.
3. Game records browse/edit/replay

2013-07-01
Enhancements:
• Add a problem test mode, and the previous problem test is now called problem practice. In the new problem test mode, you can take standard test(20 problems in 10 minutes) or custom test, in which you can customize the total problem number, test time. During problem test, the restart, try, show solution button are all disabled. The standard tests for the bundled problems are integrated with game center leaderboard. Test history is saved automatically. And you can review all the problems answered incorrectly in any test later.
• Problem practice: instead of responds with random variations, the opponent now by default responds to first variation first, after you have solved the problem once and tap the restart button to retry, the app will responds randomly if there are multiple variations.
• Add an option to show alternate moves in problem mode or game mode. The alternate moves are marked with a solid blue rectangle. In problem practice mode, if long tap the alternate move mark, the opponent's move will be changed to that position. That is, you can choose which variation the opponent will respond.
• The function of the "show answer" button during problem practice has been enhanced. Now, tap the button will just show hint for the next move: actually show all the correct variations (green dots) and incorrect variations (red dots) for a while. Long tap the button will show the solution automatically. Instead of just show the main line in the previous versions, now you have the option to control how the solutions are shown:
* Main line first, then random (default)
* Main line only
* Random
• During problem edit, by default the variations in tree view are highlighted in green or red based on the correct move or incorrect move. And the highlight can be turned off in settings.
• During game edit, it's now possible to rotate or flip the board
• Add option group support for spaced repletion study(SRS), now you can create several SRS option groups, and assign one of them to any folder.
• Auto lock is now disabled while importing
• Now the game type(problem or normal game) can be manually set
• Now the folder detail view is also available for system folders where there are no problem directly in it(For example, Basics), and the tried, correct, wrong statistics are aggregated from the stats of sub folders. (Please note, the stats for SRS are still not aggregated now, and reset statistics won't reset the stats for the sub folders)
• When use "Open In" to handle a game to another application, the fixed name openinfile.sgf is used in previous versions. Now the original file name is used if the game was imported. Or the SGF game name property(GN) will be used if the game is created from scratch in EasyGo.
• Add more content to the bundled help file, and on iPad, you can also open help view in full screen.
Bug fix:
• If modified a game without saving, then start SRS session, the game won't be saved
• Sort options are now kept when opening full screen grid view.
• If the modification to a game is discarded by the user, the game should be restored to the original
• The "double tap to zoom" options in game settings doesn't work as expected until restart the app.
• When create a new folder, the folder stats should not be shown

• During game edit, it's now possible to rotate or flip the board
• Add option group support for spaced repletion study(SRS), now you can create several SRS option groups, and assign one of them to any folder.
• Auto lock is now disabled while importing
• Now the game type(problem or normal game) can be manually set
• Now the folder detail view is also available for system folders where there are no problem directly in it(For example, Basics), and the tried, correct, wrong statistics are aggregated from the stats of sub folders. (Please note, the stats for SRS are still not aggregated now, and reset statistics won't reset the stats for the sub folders)
• When use "Open In" to handle a game to another application, the fixed name openinfile.sgf is used in previous versions. Now the original file name is used if the game was imported. Or the SGF game name property(GN) will be used if the game is created from scratch in EasyGo.
• Add more content to the bundled help file, and on iPad, you can also open help view in full screen.
Bug fix:
• If modified a game without saving, then start SRS session, the game won't be saved
• Sort options are now kept when opening full screen grid view.
• If the modification to a game is discarded by the user, the game should be restored to the original
• The "double tap to zoom" options in game settings doesn't work as expected until restart the app.
• When create a new folder, the folder stats should not be shown
Problem updates:
The solutions to the following problems have been updated:(thanks to user dgxsdr, hanekomu and Johan)
• Basics - Ladder: No 19
• Life and Death - Easy: 121, 188, 197, 201, 236, 247, 348
• Life and Death - Medium : No 22, 82

1.4
2013-02-14
Enhancements:
• Spaced repetition study
• Added per-folder statistics support
• The current node position of the last opened game is remembered when the app is restarted.
• Grid view (thumbnail view) has the same sort options as list view. The option can be set in either view and the chosen option is kept when you switch back and forth between views.
• Changed the default stone image. "Big stone" is now on by default.
• Random rotate/swap color and double tap to zoom can be configured in game settings as well as in global settings. The chosen settings still apply globally.
• Either "right" or "correct" can now be used in the comment of the last node to mark the correct variation. The key word is case insensitive and can be surrounded by other words. For example, “Ko is correct.”
• Separate toggles for stone click sound and result jingle sound.
Bug fixes:
• During game edit, if the prev/next button was on the left, the markup symbol (triangle, square, cross, etc.) did not shown in the toolbar after being selected. And on an iPad, if the button was tapped again, the app crashed.
• From problem test to game edit, the game is restored to the original if random rotation/swap is applied.
• The stats were not always shown correctly after switching profile or resetting stats.
• On iPad landscape mode, the app might crash upon close the full screen grid view.

1.1
2012-03-01
Enhancements:
• Performance tuning: the time takes to import games, batch delete has been reduced significantly.
• Sort game/problem by black name, white name, game name, date
• Shuffle game/problem(especially useful for problem practice)
• Search game/problem by black name, white name, game name, date
• For problem practice, randomly select one of right variations to test whether you know all the response to the opponent's move instead of always use the first variation
• For problem practice, the "next/restart" button on the board is now semi-transparent
• (iPad Only) Added a full screen game edit view for landscape mode, two finger tap the tree view to activate. Supports two layout schemes, two finger tap the tree view to toggle.
• Add a variation table view to complement the tree view, node name(if any) will also be showed
• Add an option to toggle the showing of next move marker: always show, never show, show only there are variations
• Add a button to back to the most recent branch point
• Add a copy to clipboard button in show SGF window
• In game view settings, removed three sliders to adjust view size, now you can drag the resize handle to adjust the size of board, comment, tree, variation table view.
• During import, if tap cancel button, a confirm window will show, you have the options to continue importing, or keep the current imported file or just delete all the imported files.
• In Version 1.0, when importing big files, the UI is not responsive for a while after tap the import button, this was fixed in Version1.1
Bug fixes:
• If input some special characters that can't be handled by current encoding, after saving the game, the whole content of the game will be empty, which will also lead to crash if scroll to the game next time
• Batch move destination should exclude the sub folders of current folder, otherwise data will lose.
• If the game name ended with a dot and a white space, then the file name in the exported zip file will not be ended with .sgf
• On iPad, In grid view, when tap the sort button second time, the sort option window will open again
• On iPad, in game edit view, if you tap action button, then Open In, then tap action button again, the open In window won't be dismissed.
• When open a big game, such as kogo's joseki dictionary, the app might crash. The reason is that the current approach to draw tree view will demand a lot of system memory. For version 1.1, the tree view for big game is disabled. The tree view drawing will be optimized in future versions.
• The next move marker will overwrite any markup at the same position

A very nice Go app
Do the exercises included and you will definitely improve your level.
Also it helps when you review your own games in Tygem.
The developer responds quickly and do listen to users feedback.

Great problem library
This app has a great problem library. Also, you can easily load Kogo’s joseki dictionary and interactively practice the sequences.
It’s too bad there is no version with a Japanese interface.

CuriousMynd,
Terrific!
This is the best Go study app on the market, hands down. The space-repetition study feature alone is worth every penny. Great support too.
(Are there any more problem sets coming?)

Ockymofo,
3k IGS
Hello, I feel like this is bar none the best Go tutor app on the market.. I have probably spent close to a hundred dollars on go apps through my Go progression (lame.. I know.) and none come close. When I purchased this app, I was stuck at 12k (igs), after a month of playing through the basic tutorials, and revisiting them. I hit 9k. It has been a year and a half since then, and I still use this program on a somewhat regular (and still am far from mastering everything here).
The best thing about this program, is that it ups the difficulty of the problems, as you progress. (you learn the basics of all that it offers - you will be somewhere around 9k., you start to master the life and death / tesuji, you will be some where around 6k.. and so forth) .. Most go programs that I have played with, feel VERY unlike actual game play, not so with this game.

Good but crashes often
Trying to open tygem games lead to crashes every time
Dreidel Spinning Gangsta,
A fantastic application for studying the game
I purchased this app by accident when my finger slipped. It was a highly fortunate accident, as this app provided me with every feature I could hope for as a beginner studying the game on my own with no one to play against. If you're interested enough to be reading this review, odds are this app is just what you're looking for, and for me it was worth the money and I believe the developer has rightfully earned every penny.
KanzenMaster,
Great
Really useful app, thrilled that it allows you to edit / create / upload your own problems. There's a few bugs but the developer is very quick to respond and is working on fixing. Considering how new it is, im surprised how robust it is. The graphical move tree is also terrific.
I use this more than SmartGo now and its cheaper

Eric Rrrr,
Excellent learning tool
The spaced repetition study feature is exactly what I've been looking for. Being able to add in my own problems and then study them has helped me learn more efficiently. The app has many nice features, but its study mode really sets it apart from similar apps.
trgo999,
Great update
Update makes an already great app even better. Wifi transfer and enhanced tagging make it really easy to create and collect problems on your computer, organize them with tags, then directly load them onto your phone or iPad.
Eajy,
Great game but.....
The is a great editor and game player. I have Smartgo kifi but Easygo have several different features i like, however the graphic could use a big boost. I get a little disappointed when I open this app due to the cloudy graphic. Give that a overhaul and this app will be able to really compete against Smartgo. Can we get that in the next update? It will get 5 star when better graphic is delivered.
