Apple watch app

Just updated my ipad, and underneath the chess.com icon it said something like "offers Apple watch app". Anyone tried that? Is it just notifications and whatnot, things like challenges, messages or opponent's daily game moves?

No but my wife does. Been thinking about getting one.

It doesn't seem to work.  For me, it always says there's no internet connection, then if I go ahead & press on New Game, it might tell me that I'll get a notice when my game is accepted, but that never happens.

I'm afraid the apple watch app is not working. I have informed the powers at be, but it still remains broken.

Apple Watch only shows notifications. If you try to create a new game on it, it’ll load and then say “no connection”. Pretty misleading.

mine does not even show notifications.....just displays this message "No Network.....Error fetching data"

The status still seems to be the same. Is there any development being done on this front?

I have version 3 with the latest watch OS. Chess.com reminders work perfectly for me. I do not have the Chess.com app installed on my watch, however; that’s only on my phone.

It just notifies me when an opponent has made a move during daily games. It is very useful in that context

The app will not let me make moves on my series 3 Apple Watch because it keeps saying network error but it does notify me when my opponent makes a move. I have reported the issue several times and they say that there working in it.

I have the Apple Watch app installed. It seems to connect ok, and i can view the board for any of my daily games. I don’t seem to be able to make a move, which is a shame, but it is nice to be able to look at the board and think about problems without having my phone!

Was actually thinking it would be tricky to get the move stuff working precisely and usably on such a tiny screen - perhaps a solution for that would be to enter the notation with scribble?

Too bad no moves are possible. Well, zooming would be a helpful feature, flying across the board, tipping one piece and it’s destination.

The app only works for daily chess.
