Best program for automatic game analysis / annotation

Fritz 15?

It means he deleted his comment.

And yeah, stockfish 6 is best

This is the problem. Most programs can present lines but in many cases, the reasons why that line is better than another is not clear and the program can't explain it to you.

No point analysing your games by yourself without an engine because you will be using the same thinking-process as you used in the game itself.

• You have unlimited time analyzing a game by your self, whereas in the actual game you had only 30 seconds or so on average per position. You ca go to the critical point and spend 30 minutes, and find out the truth.
• There is no pressure on you while analysing a game, whereas there is during the actual game. A mistake in analysis costs nothing.
• You can always give your games to a coach, or post it so people can explain to you in English where you and your opponent went wrong. Compuers can only give a confusing mixture of letters, co-ordinates and evaluations.
• You can move the pieces around while analyzing, whereas whil playing you have to visualize possibilities

May I suggest that anyone who's considering using a chess analysis program to analyse their mistakes, would try doing it with decodechess.com?  The difference here is that moves and positions are being explained, in intuitive language and with a cool User Interface that is divided into tabs. They are providing explanations for Stockfish's suggested moves, so it's a double win here, because you basically get Stockfish with a cool user interface, and can understand what stands behind the suggested move, instead of just being fed an answer. Everything's online and you don't have to download anything to your computer which got me out of the tech mess...

Try SmallFish chess app (http://www.smallchess.com) to download.

There's a blunder check feature:

"Blunder Check" will give you analysis:

At my age (started playing amateur tournaments in 1978) I don't believe in and don't care about improving my strength of play. I use automatic analysis to see my mistakes in a fast way and to evaluate my level of play in the game and that of my opponent. I also go into the database of my own games searching for my best games. For this I use the evaluation of game strength for white and black, something many programs do nowadays and still not mentioned in this thread. The evaluation is usually made as a % or as an average of lost centipawns, or an Elo estimation.

And this even mentioning how useful the feature is for cheaters detection...

Installed software I know that can do this are: Fritz, Hiarcs and Lucas chess. There are more?
