Hello, If I start a game with the android app it will work at first although it doesn’t show info on the board. I wanted to offer a draw in a game bit there was no way to do it on the board. When I offered a draw on my phone, I could not make moves on the board anymore. It just defaults to phone moves. Is there a solution to this problem, Thanks

So the draw was rejected and then the board stopped allowing moves?

Yes ,That’s correct.I could still play on the phone but it seemed to drag. Interesting, later I resigned and the board flashed to indicate the end of the game but the moves wouldn’t take during the game.

Concerning the problem above, I switched the chessup app to my tablet instead of my phone and it seems to work now., Thanks
