Another fine idea @Rsava!

This is probably a World First - and it was seamless!!! My opponent's board (DGT) froze after 32 moves but my Square Off Pro (never charged since bought a month ago just kept going! The pic says it all!! The Sq. Off App could do with a split mode to have other apps running at the same time though.

Here's a link to my new YouTube channel that features SOP "How to" videos:
Practice Custom Chess Positions Using Square Off Pro & Save PGN to Chess.com https://youtu.be/hUa-uad6qbs?si=TihojUwEfXcy8HUvIn this video, I copied a FEN from a custom chess position into SOP's custom position option. Then, I played the position against SOP AI to review what I recalled.
This was accomplished with the connected SOP board, so all moves were recorded effortlessly. Last, I saved the endgame to my chess.com endgame library.
Now, my chess coach can review my progress quickly!
