Doesn’t work at all - don’t bother

Tried for days and it still won’t connect my chessnut board to lichess. Which is the *whole freaking point* of the app.

I’ve tried a million fixes trust me.

I’ll change my review if they fix it. Right now- don’t even bother unless you enjoy submitting bug reports.

Freezes on Puzzles

Sadly the puzzles don’t work and freeze while doing the first move.
Playing on Chessnut go.
Certainly would love to have puzzles on my go with led and all!
Make it happen please!

Excellent chess electronic board app

This person who created it did an excellent job with this white pawn app. The new Chessnut app doesn’t have the draw by agreement & takeback move.
