Not working from yesterday. Opening games brings error message.
Hello, will there ever be access to opening book in WP app? It is even in picture preview in store, but I don't see it in app.

Opening book is on the Windows app, but only found through a game. To find it, you go to a game, click the analysis button, then click the icon which shows 3 books in a pile. You will have to scroll right back to the starting position though. I don't see any other way to access it. Hope this helps :)

I see nothing like that. Where is it? I miss that function from the very first use of the application, I was searching quite long for it, as it was in preview pictures...

That screen looks like an ongoing computer game. The book/explorer option is only available in Daily games or finished games in the analysis screen I think.
Yes, it looks like it's not available during computer games or ongoing games in live chess (as external help is not allowed for live chess games).
Aha, thank you guys very much! Hopefully one daily game is enough to run it forever 
chess.com: I think it should really be in the main list together with tactics, play etc. I was waiting for any chess program offering good opening book from day I bought my phone. Many times I was considering throwing my lumia 920 into a garbage, so many spare time and no way to study openings on WP. This is at the moment (and I think for a long time) the one and only serious chess app for WP and good opening book is perfect ad for it. For a lot of players it will be clear number one of whole app. I wouldn't handle it as some side function of daily chess 
I think you will find that the WP app has ceased to be updated. Now that V3 has been released I find playing on the website Chess.Com to be a better experience for live chess and other funtions.

Tactics does not work anymore. "Error. Response status code does not indicate success: 429 (429)". Been broken quite awhile... Seems there are no development to Windows anymore.

I get the same error when I solve tactics correctly ("Error: Response status code does not indicate success: 429"). Then no points are added to my score, when I click "Ok" I'm just booted back to the main menu screen.
However, if I fail the tactic, everything works ...
Works on Lumia 820 and Lumia 920.. Thanks!
