Best collection of puzzles?

Sort:
jinto26

I am looking for some good collection of puzzles (primarily tactical ones), preferably in digital form, preferably free. I don't care if it is in an app, a website, a pgn or whatever, as long as I can casually solve puzzles on my phone. If it can track my progress or even choose puzzles for me based on my strengths and weaknesses, even better. I am not impressed by chess.com's puzzles, too many of them have more than one solution where only one is marked as correct.

Please post an example of a chess.com puzzle that you believe has more than one solution.

You just joined. You haven't even tried any puzzles.

@justbefair I don't believe in OP's statement that most chess.com puzzles have multiple correct solutions too, but I've seen one recently that I believe should be changed. The final two moves are not necessary, simply trading the two pieces for a rook still leads to a completely winning pawns endgame.

I'm planning on doing one on studies soon

Note that these puzzles are for pure enjoyment, and are not meant for excessive solving.

People speak very highly about the tactical richness of ChessTempo.com 

My personal favourites are the courses by https://chesskingtraining.com/

You have to pay for them but they don't cost much.
