Quick Question: will variants come to mobile?

I can play them and do on my computer, but sometimes I play on my IPad and I would like to be able to play variants, will they ever come?

Doubtful. Variants are slow and don't receive enough attention as it is. Maybe someday...

Can you not just turn desktop mode on your phone and go to the website? ( i haven't tried but - I imagine that works )

on the website variants are available but not in the mobile app

i think they schould add it to the app, not something like 4pc (it is to big), but something like atomic giveaway and so on schould be part of the app

The app doesn't support variants, but the website does. I'm literally writing this on a mobile device rn

Ironically, the app also doesn’t support most club features (like club forums), which I think is more of a priority 😂

Are any of these going to come at any point?

I see your point, and no I haven't tried it, but I would rather have it on the mobile app, as I find the formating and also convience to be better.

Even though a bit buggy it does work and that's usually how I play variants. (I really don't recommend it if you have a working pc/laptop)

I think mobile is a long way from reaching its full potential. The squares become tiny, which leads to misclicks and lost elo

In any case, just use a computer/desktop
