New user here.  
I installed the app on ipad. The app is connected to the board.  
I initiated a “chessup” bot game on the board but I am unable to review the game on the app. There is nothing in the history section of the app.

Can I initiate games on the app and play on the board?

I don’t have IOS but what I know from the forum is that inside the options off the app you can switch auto import on. When done kill the app and relaunch with board connected and go to the games history tab. It can take a few secounds to load the games in that tab so just wait a min. Good luck.

I’d be really interested to understand how the games are saved in the board ? And what’s the import process is ? Didn’t see any such menu on the Android app. Yes there is a history tab but it doesn’t show all the games I’ve played only a few of them. Are ALL the games stored in board’s internal memory and what’s the best way to retrieve them? Thank you

Hi  
On android there is no such menu item. On android just connect to the board and go to History tab. It can take up to 30 secs but the games automatically sync.
