Annoyance

Paid for premium to use on my chess board and the app and I get logged out like every day out of my account and it’s so annoying like why do I pay for premium and nice stuff and I have to login like every day to my board and chess to even use it just a waste of time it feels like honestly would rather just do it on my phone
