    This is probably the first chess app you should buy once you know how the different chessmen move. It does exactly what it says on the tin: you get 2500+ mate in one problems for $1.99. The problems are curated to drill you in a number of motifs, so that you learn to recognize patterns almost immediately. For less than two bucks, it's an amazing value. Highly recommended.
