I started to play the bots on the Chessnut Air and it’s great. Hopefully the Chessup will also support it!

Yes we expect to be able to play the bots as a feature. The immediate release will be online play, then extended functionality will follow from there.

Good progress with chess.com work so far. Still not close to release but I wanted to let everyone know we are still expecting to meet or beat October.

Are there any plans to somehow incorporate the assistance lights with Chess.com? For example, playing against the bots with the assistance lights would be great!

No plans yet on the assistance. Chess.com has a form of hints built in with their bots. We can perhaps bring this up in the future with them.

I think that would be great and then ChessUp together with Chess.com could be used also in school chess classes. Would be a great educational platform.

This is exciting! It worked really well for a live demo. :smiley:

I played a few dozen games over the weekend on both iOS and Android on chess.com.

We are very close to getting this out in the wild. I will share a video soon of some of the games.

Looks very smooth! I look forward to that one very much! I’ve been only playing the computer on the board so far, because my lichess rapid rating is insanely inflated (1950, which is a good 1000 rating points above my chess.com rating) and I would like to play on my actual level, not the fake one ^^

Any estimate when chess.com will be out of beta. It seems stable to me

Should we be using the Chess com app instead for iOS?

The chess.com app does not connect with ChessUp. You have to use the ChessUp app.
