Can you please try it one more time, it should work fine, we didn't changed there anything long time ago:) It works as expected for me.

Also, when quoting a post with a quote, it seems to get confused, as demonstrated above. :-P

I tried it again and it definitely doesn't hold the setting for me, reverts back to next ready game every time (it remembers other changes just fine). When I downloaded the newest version it switched up the setting and since then no changes have stuck.

I see that label in settings doesn't change after coming back, but app behave as expected. Well check possible cases.

on Dan heismans q&a article from yesterday large parts of text are obscured by giant smileys. maybe a problem with rendering of smileys generally.

on tactics, there doesn't seem to be an easy way to get back from the analysis board back to the tactics board. also if you get a tactic correct, can there be a way to auto-play the correct moves as there is when you get it wrong? I've always used that feature on the desktop version to memorize the tactical pattern. also the "reset" on the analysis board takes you to the final move in a tactic rather than the first.

also just to say the app is starting to come together nicely and is almost at the point I can use it almost all the time rather than use the desktop version. keep up the good work!

I agree getting better for correspondence chess. I am still uneasy about using it for live chess with specific challenges. And I have no idea how to use it for group interaction such as notes, forums, chat, etc.

This is fixed in next version. Will be available for beta community soon.

I just got failed on problem 0064012 for playing b8=N+ as the first move on the app but the desktop site says this is the correct solution. the app gives fxg7 as the first move, which is just a blunder.

In the newest version of the app, navigating to the fifth page of a forum thread is giving inconsistent behavior: when I click on 5 it takes me to page four and then when I use the page down button it takes me to page 5, but shows it on the bottom of the screen as page 1.

Also sometimes trying to navigate to 5 prompts the app to load, but it stays on page 1 of the thread.

Bug new to this version: the graphic icons for the left side menu sometimes lose their transparency and show a white box border around the graphic, which comes and goes as the app is opened and closed.

This issue seems to be related to rendering the graphics as the menu slides on and off screen: affects Settings and Chess Clock, and scrolling the menu occasionally resolves/creates the issue.

Can you try switch on and off Notification enabled? If it doesn't help try uninstall and re-install... 

I'll check possible issues, but should work same as before.

I rebooted my phone and that seemed to help for some games. It appears some come through and some don't. I'll observe it for a bit and keep you posted. Thanks!
