What is this mysterious title all about? Well, we do have chesscom integrated in the board directly and lichess is also planed but I couldn’t find a way to challenge a chessup friend directly from the board. Is it something planed or does it even make sense?
I found it cool to play against a friend who also owns a chessup but wondered why one had to do that through the app only. Or am I doing something wrong?

I agree. This should be integrated into the board as an option someday soon. I have a few friends that have ChessUp and we all feel it would be cool to play each other through the board without the app.

Indeed an important feature - Direct ChessUp-\>ChessUp challenges are in the next major release.
These will be [chess.com](http://chess.com) games.

In a further future release we will have the ability to challenge with assistance as well.
