April 5, 2019

- This update adds a new system for playing online. You can access it by tapping on the cloud button on the main toolbar. It should be much easier to use and more reliable than the old system. The old system is still included, so if you have active games, you can finish them. But it will be removed in a future version of tChess. I hope you enjoy the new system!
