Pros and cons of XG Mobile Backgammon app for iPhone and iPad

XG Mobile Backgammon app good for

Clearly the best backgammon program for portable devices, as it is for PC, on all aspects. The premium version is a must have for the serious players willing to improve their skills (save match, play from position, etc...).
The best one I found...!!! I have tried many backgamon games and thats definitly the best one.!
Great example of what great developers can accomplish! Very cool interface, very fast, simple ant intuitive to use. 5 stars!
This is for sure the best backgammon software in the world, great job designers...
X Gammon is by far the best backgammon in the market so it is the app. It is designed by serious players and they had in mind players from the begining to pro levels. It is a must!
This is by far the best BG App. I have played. Optik, Haptik and intelligent is really great! I would give 6 Stars!

Some bad moments

Well designed app but permanent add bar even on purchased version, making it hard to play.
Please fix compatibility with IOS 9! thx then ill change my review to 5 stars...
Not working with 9.0 version of IOS!!! Even the Pro ones! Please correct this asap. Also make the dices always roll randomly!
Computer has a lot of luck!!!! Thats really annoying. So, two stars.
If i looked at the reviews here, whoever gives 5 stars wrote a comment saying the game is not fake and blaiming others as beginner. Basically 5 stars giving ppl are fake how can i expect this game to be fair. If you have a look at the web site of this company they are giving the same comments, like the dice are random, champions are training with it etc. Same as the guy giving 5 stars here. Look at the other comments from who plays this game, they all say the same " luck, " As a backgamon player, believe what i say, even in beginner level i am loosing and i am not beginner. I am loosing not because computer plays better then me, it is because it has a lot of luck, A LOT ! It is not teaching anything, you are not going to learn how to play. I can write a book about the mistakes computer makes all the time over and over but as i said it has luck and programmed to win. I am deleting it and if you do not want to waste your money and time DO NOT BUY IT I will report this fake comments to Apple, whoever is giving the fake comments to increase the statistics, he has to know that he will be reprted... Last thing about the game is the graphics. It is good i have to give it to the designer,. 1 star is more then enough for this game !!!
Have been Playing about 10000 Games -statistically relevant! -on the Professional Mode, Have an elo about 1850. the spread of the Rolls Are Even. But the luck Factor is hilarious. When beeing on the Bar Trying to get in the bot wont let you but itself on the Same Position it will nearly every Time get the Perfect Rolls. The Same with the Double!
