NOTE
When you download this app, you get two apps: An iOS app (that shows up on your home screen) and an iMessage app (that shows up in iMessage). The iOS app is for playing chess via Game Center where you can challenge players worldwide (including friends). The iMessage app offers an alternative way of playing chess with friends. Matches played via iMessage are not connected to matches played via Game Center, dont receive points in Game Center and no match history is recorded. Starting a match via iMessage requires the premium version, available as in-app purchase.

UNINSTALL
Uninstall the app on your home screen like any other app. The iMessage app will be removed as well.
