Ratings and reviews

I love the app, it's the most reliable way for me to play online with my DGT e-board. Excellent interfacing! However: If my opponent on Lichess leaves the game so that he/out times out I stand as winner in the app, but I lose rating on the Lichess site. It happens every time I have a winning position and the opponent abandons the game and I get Victory and he Defeat, but I lose rating. According to the Lichess forum if a player abandons the game, they should lose the game and get a rating penalty. But via the app, I lose rating instead... It's very annoying since I love playing on Lichess using the app!

Works fairly well in order to play lichess with chessnut chess board. It does however continue to need me to pair my lichess account. Which wouldn't be a problem, besides the way it fails. It just will never find a game. It will still allow you to search for a game, but will never find one until you delete and re authorize your lichess Nicolas Vaagen

AI (Stockfish engine) stops playing midway through the game, letting me win by default when timer counts down to zero. Also, would be nice if the two-human player mode will have the pieces on their side of the board facing them. Thanks
