bots overpowered, how to fix

I’ve noticed the last few days that the bots have all been getting 96+ accuracy in games. Making it really hard to beat. I usually like to just play them as a fun pass time but I played Martin today and he’s playing like a 3000 Elo rating rather than his usual 250… 97% accuracy… I don’t know if this is the same with anyone else? Does anyone know how to fix this?

I’m having the same problem as JStagHart123. I’ve tried playing against computer set to level 1 (beginner), but the accuracy is still off the charts (84.9).

Yes, I have noticed the same on the iOS Chess.com app with the bots. As an example, I used assistance/suggestions playing against Lario (before he changed to Fire Lario) when he was a 600. Playing as black, I drew after 135 moves. Neither side made an inaccuracy or mistake. Lario had 98.9% and I had 99.0% accuracy. It seems virtually all the bots when playing against with the iOS app are much harder with the low ELO bots having the most dramatic increase in strength. Something went haywire around the time that the Super Mario bots came about...

Are you playing through the iOS app? It seems playing thru the browser is fine.

You're playing through your browser, correct? The browser seems fine to me - it's when you use the iOS app that the weak bots are now much, much stronger. The iOS app must be implementing its own game logic independent of what runs through the browser based on the difference in results.
