They do think this is the best chess app, but I am so absolutely tired of the "vacation" abuse. If you have an agreement per day and your opponent suddenly once more time, they just get to go on vacation for up to a month. This is done per move for some players. There should be a setting to match with others who chose to have this feature disabled or not. I will not subscribe for this exact reason.

Thank you for this feedback. We'll consider revising Vacation Time settings in the future. In the meantime, make sure to check out Daily Chess tournaments in the menu: Play>Tournaments>Daily. You can find tournaments where Vacation Time is disabled!

What happened to game reviews?! The new version is awful. Absolutely horrible experience, and it's so jarring to use it now. Wish I could install the old version. Smh. Puzzles are also still really buggy and often freeze (every 3-4 puzzles). I do puzzles way more than games, so it's a huge issue for me. Paying 120/yr, I expected better. I cancelled premium and wow, the experience is absolutely awful as a free user. Goodbye. Going back to ad-free Lichess now.

Thank you for this feedback. Our Game Review interface was recently updated to make the feature easier to use and to continue to adapt to the requests we've received from players over time. That said, we are still making updates and actively taking players' feedback on this. If the Puzzles error continues, please contact us: www.chess.com/support

Great app but buggy. The review always bugd out and stops working forcing me to redo it. Also, why if your moves are already premoved does it take up time? Ill premove 4 moves ahead and each time itll take up half a second or more. Whats the point in pre moving? Pls fix these issues. Also, add more time before disconnecting a player if his internet cuts out. Ive lost a ton of games bc of my internet cutting out for a minute.

Thank you for this detailed feedback. A premove will take at least 0.1 second, but may take longer due to any latency. We'll keep working on optimizations to ensure the best connectivity possible for players around the world.
