Yes. That is correct. You need to use the website.

The apps are different than the website and they are different from each other.

The Android app just had a major new release in beta. It now has Puzzle Rush. It never had that before. It has ChessTV. It has a lot of new functions including lessons.

It doesn't have clubs.

You need to use a web browser app for that. Chrome works well for me.

On the iOS app, there is a three-line button in the top left corner next to the chess.com logo. Tap it to see the browser menu system.

I don't use the iOS app but wouldn't it be much easier to just use a browser app?

Yes, I agree. A web browser is much better for accessing clubs.

But if you mostly play on app you might feel too lazy to use browser. I agree with Tournament, Daily, Connect to access to clubs. That’s what I do. Unless I have to insert a picture or diagram in some forums.

There’s a bug that when you join a Swiss tournament on app, your games don’t show up. That doesn’t happen all the time. It usually happens if I do the Tournament, Daily, Connecting (3 bars) thing and then join a Swiss tournament. When that happens, I have switch to Browser via Tournament, Daily, Connecting, Play, Live to find my Swiss tournament games. That’s disastrous if I am playing hyperbullet swiss tournaments that way. I have not mastered how to make multiple premoves in the browser. I do it blindly. It works sometimes against 600 or 700 rated players. To avoid my  Swiss tournament games disappearing on the app, I made sure when I log in the app I don’t do the Tournament Daily Connecting thing first. That usually works. But this is still a bug. When staff have some free time, please consider to fix it. It’s not urgent.

What about the android app? I can't find tournaments...?

@LesuhAn I think android app is same as iOS app. You should be able to see tournaments.

I looked and looked and I can't seem to find them. I could be missing something, I guess, but I can't figure it out. :/

Did you click New Games, Join a Tournament?

@Yuuto_T

Thank you so much for doing that! I feel pretty silly but I didn't realize I had to hit new game! 🤦

Things look a bit different on my Android app so I made a hopefully helpful collage to help similarly confused people as myself:

Thank you for your posts, I was able to get straight to the forum and club without exiting the application.

Let me test uploading pictures, I hope it works now. 😀

It seems it's not working... I guess I have to use the browser. Anyways, thanks again.
