My family and I all enjoy playing OTB on ChessUp2, and we would like to log our game histories as we play OTB. Is it possible for two users to play OTB with both their respective ChessUp accounts. I know there are future plans for similar request via chess.com OTB integration, however maybe this is a simpler interim solution that allows at least the game logs and pgn’s for each users account OTB vs just user 1 v. “Someone”
Is it possible for ChessUp2 board to recognize 2 mobile devices running the app with two users at the same time?
I would like this feature as a possibility far down the road due to the multiple ChessUps in our family and I often find we both want to review that game on our own time.
We do not have this yet. But we are aware of the need. There are varieties of this, like playing rated chess.com OTB 2 player, etc.
So we are working with Chess.com to see what they will allow on their front.
On our front, we are going to move more towards reporting live games up to the cloud - so we are less dependent on the app for game archiving. Then you will be able to tag more than one person in that game, and both can access it.
This is all in the planning stage right now, so no date yet. But we will be working through more 2 player OTB storage / broadcast / review features.

This would be so cool if it ever happened !!
What can we do to help encourage the process so features like this don’t get lost in the black hole of feature famine? Many features discussed in the community don’t seem to have priority, anything we can do help push this?
I keep track off all requested features and give them to Jeff. They won’t get lost.
Yeah Criptix keeps a list and we have dozens of these things we are tracking.
We have not laid out a plan of what will be addressed next - we will do that once we finish lichess and interactive bots.
Y’all are doing an awesome job on all this. Thank you
That’s great, glad you guys are on top of it. It’s awesome that ChessUp2 supports continuous development and improvement. Keep up the great work!
