Pros and cons of GoQuest app for iPhone and iPad

GoQuest app good for

Une application remarquable... et gratuite :) Fantastic app... and free :) Thanks a lot for given us such an app.
Simple but great app. It has never crashed and works perfectly.

Some bad moments

My big compliant is I have no idea how the score system works. I will be wining then at the end of the game it will say I lost. Also all the scores at the end of each game gave decimals. As far as I know Go cant have decimals in a score. I looked on line to try to find the answer, because the app its self does not explain this, and I just found Im right. I dont know how the winner is determined, but this is not Go.
Byo-yomi and a better scoring engine would be great, but this is a great way to play a quick game of online go on your phone.
This app does exactly what it sets out to do. It provides a great platform for a quick game 9x9 go. (It also does 13x13, but I dont use that board size.) The ELO rating system does a good job of matching up opponents of approximately equal skill, and there are enough users and bots that I rarely have to wait long for a game. Its great fun!
No useless features. It would be good to have a home button on the game results page.
It would be useful to have a forum for players and observers to discuss a game once it is complete.
Great app for quick 9x9 or 13x13 go games with an opponent always available within a few seconds. A few complaints: You cant chat with your opponent, players cant arrange to play with each other, handicaps cant be used (as far as I can tell), its too easy to accidentally place your stone in the wrong place, and I havent found game rules anywhere yet (basic time is 5 minutes with 4 seconds added per move and no byo-yomi, area scoring I think).
