Hello,

I have a question, is it possible right now to play 5min+5s time control on ChessUp 2 (without using the app)?  
The highest blitz time control is see in settings is 5 minutes no increment, but I believe having 5+5 available would be very useful - it’s the longest blitz format ChessDotCom offers and in my opinion the only blitz that is reasonably playable on ChessUp.  
If it’s somehow available and I simply don’t see it then please help me find it and if not - please tell me whether it will be added soon 🙂

Thank you!

It is coming - and also I agree this is the ideal format for ChessUp 2.

Hi,

is there any update on this? I’m really wanting to play 5+5 and 10+5 time controls.

I received my board a few days ago and have been absolutely loving it! Keep up the great work!

1.4.2 comes out tomorrow and has 5+5

Additional formats will be added shortly after that as well (like 10+5).

I’m looking forward for 10+5 since in 10 mins time control, in time scrambles, I loose most of the games.
