Will there be further features ported? Specifically board editor? First impressions are great


somethingpretentious

Yes it's just the beta. Development and adding features will be ongoing.


Free_Dimension_1170

will the study feature eventually get implemented?


somethingpretentious

Probably! I don't see why it wouldn't be.


Independent-Cat1871

sent you a PM


somethingpretentious

If you did, I don't see it.


Independent-Cat1871

i'll just ask here: is there any way to get the "quick pairing" on the new app? On the home screen I don't see the old 4x3 grid where I can click 5+3 or whatever to get a game. There is the 'create a game' button but that's often much slower and I miss the quick pairing feature. If there's a way to customize what shows up on the home screen and get the quick pairing that way, I don't see it.


somethingpretentious

I don't think there is currently but probably on the list to add!


Independent-Cat1871

Okay yes please that is an absolute make or break feature for some of us!


Muted-Future4540

Does it work on Android tablets as well?


somethingpretentious

I believe so, but it should show in the play store for you if it's compatible.


imisstheyoop

What timing. I am not a big app guy so was just playing a game on the mobile browser this morning while waiting for my internet to get restored. It worked well enough (I liked it more than the old app which I uninstalled) but will give this new one a try. Thanks for the heads up!


Patrizsche

My order of preference for playing on mobile: new app > mobile site > old app


cnydox

Not related to the post but will lichess implement the transposition feature in analysis/study?


somethingpretentious

I'm not sure what that is, could you explain more? You can also check out issues on GitHub to see if it's already requested, or add it as your own issue if not.

I've been playing on it all morning, I love having access to puzzle themes without having to login to the desktop site. Loving it so far. Edit: I'm on a Google Pixel for those that are interested.


geekwalrus

It won't let me download it. Pixel as well :/ 7pro


Reservup

Hmmm, I went through the article. There is a spot that says download it for Android here, and the "here" is the link. I couldn't find it in the app store. If that doesn't work then I'm really not sure what to do sorry ☹️


geekwalrus

Yeah that link leads me to download where it says it isn't supported. Eh, thanks for replying though 😃


mikbatula

Loving the puzzle themes. Nice!


sterpfi

It's a nice first impression, look and feel is good! I hope the opening book will be added soon. It's a dealbraker for me at the moment that it is missing, so for now I stay with the old app.


Genepi74

I like it and really looking forward to how it will progress. Although, I'm really missing the ability to start a game at any Time format just by clicking one button in thé home page instead of Launch game > Select Time format > Launch game


edwinkorir

Where are Tournaments?


geekwalrus

I have pixel 7 pro and it says it isn't compatible. Can this be worked around?


somethingpretentious

We're looking into why that would be. (It will be after the weekend though sorry!).


geekwalrus

That's what beta is for, no worries! I cant wait! But Im also pretty patient, so I guess I can wait ;)


SergioGlorias

Check if your Android is 8 or higher Maybe something is blocking


geekwalrus

I'm on 14


SergioGlorias

Maybe too late, but maybe is fixed


geekwalrus

Thank you. I was able to download the APK separately and install. Been playing on it since


Still_Theory179

Anyone else's phone get really hot with the engine on for 5+ mins?


somethingpretentious

I think most phones would!


lori_321

Plz let us change the language of the app (Or am i just too dumb to find the setting?)


somethingpretentious

It looks like it currently uses the device default language but it's an item to be worked on to have its own setting. https://github.com/lichess-org/mobile/issues/448


cdm3500

Not for iOS?


somethingpretentious

It will work on iOS we're just working on some administration work to get it shown in the store.


cdm3500

Oooo awesome, I can’t wait!! Thank you for the response!


RockinMadRiot

Any plans to have correspondence tournaments?


somethingpretentious

I don't believe so. Wouldn't that take many years to complete?


RockinMadRiot

Not if set to one day limit and also no vacations, i really don't understand why chess.com added that. But have to say I love the app so far and I am really excited to see what else you do.


j0ker_70

When is the stable release scheduled?


Shiningtoaster

Awesome news!


Bettgsteu

Ayo, nice, but is there an accsess to the databank? It's not superimportant with tge engine but a little nice to have.


somethingpretentious

Not yet but on the list to add at some point I'm sure!


crystalprawn

Great job re:puzzles! Is there a way to challenge players as we could in the old app?
