EVERY TIME CONTROL, DONE RIGHT
• Fischer increment, Bronstein delay, simple (US) delay, or sudden death
• Multi-stage tournament controls (e.g. 40 moves in 90 min, then 30 min, +30s)
• Per-side handicap: give each player a different clock

ONE TAP TO PLAY
• Bullet, Blitz, Rapid and Classical presets ready to go
• Build any custom cadence and save your favorites

MADE TO LIVE ON YOUR TABLE
• Oversized, glanceable digits
• Sound + haptic feedback on every move and a flag alert
• Screen stays awake during a game; auto-pauses when interrupted
• 22 free themes in four collections (classic, meme, illustrated and photo), many with their own artwork, sounds and ambient effects
• Zen photo themes (lagoon, mountains, forest, aurora) and an optional analog dial face
• Pick your style in a swipeable theme gallery on first launch
• High-contrast colorblind-friendly theme included

OPTIONAL THEME PACK
