Cant enpassant when playing on my phone?

Does anyone else have this issue when playing on there phone. I dont play on the app just like through web browser but apparently i cant use enpassant? 

Also can you cancel premoves on a phone or is it only on computer or laptop?

If en passant is a legal move, you should be able to do it, the same way it's done on the web.

I had this problem for weeks when I first got on the app. Other people could do it to me but I could never do it. Then I finally learned that I was subtly misunderstanding how en passant worked, and just attempting it under incorrect conditions haha. So I searched it and got clarification and have had no problems since. Might not be the same for you but I felt I should toss it out there for science's sake and at least we can all have a laugh at my expense lol.

Good luck! And yeah to cancel premoves just bop the board somewhere else, preferably get in the habit of bopping the board somewhere absolutely unreachable for whatever piece(s) you were just touching. Great way to avoid accidental premoves if you're interacting with the board before really making your choice.

i think i can use enpassant in this situation ??

yeah alright im terrible at this game

science always prevails it turns out im just terrible at chess and dont know the rules lol

your welcome to laugh at my expense aswell

Hey, what matters is that you're mature enough to recognize having been mistaken lol! Something I always try to keep in mind (I don't always succeed, but I try) is: EVERYONE who EVER knows any given thing ... was once a person who didn't know that thing.

You're just one of "today's lucky 10,000" as xkcd puts it

(And it doesn't mean you suck at the game. Be gentle with yourself, friend!)

Reading the title I assumed it was as shown in #5.

The problem is that the rule isn't taught very well. The simple way of saying it is when a pawn has moved two squares, you can capture it as if it had only moved one.

So when capturing a black pawn with en passant, your pawn will always land on the 6th rank, because that's one square forward from the black pawn's staring position.

That is not how to do en passant. You do it like this:

3. dxc6 is the en passant move.

Accurate af. I think if it had been explained that way to me when I first learned chess years ago, I'd have retained an accurate conceptualization of it up through when I got properly into the game last year.

It's so weird that it's so often explained with loads of extra steps/confusing detail instead (and I'm saying this as a big fan of explaining things in excessive nuance and detail lmao)
